4EverfreeBrony is among the oldest musicians in the fandom, with his first pony song, Birdsong, originally released way back in 2013. This new version, released a full 10 years after the original, is an amazing testament to just how far he has progressed as an artist. “Birdsong” is a deceptively simple, yet beautiful piece, with lighthearted instrumentation coupled with 4Everfree’s smooth vocals and a catchy chorus that is sure to get stuck in your head. In addition, keeping with the theme, the track also features a creative whistling section, not unlike the melodic calls of actual birds. Whether this is the first time you’re hearing it, or if you’re a long time fan of 4EverfreeBrony, this uplifting track is sure brighten your day, bringing to mind images of prancing through a gorgeous forest as the sun’s warming rays peak through the canopy!
Original
Velvet R. Wings – Disillusion | Chillout / Folk
Velvet R. Wing’s “Disillusion” is a haunting tune. Velvet’s gorgeous vocals carry the song, starting with just a hum that turns into a wistful verse about loss, changing times, and the need to move on and “fly away.” Her voice is met with the poignant sound of the harp, crisp percussion, and a few synths here and there, all reverberates though a massive space. The overall sound is eerie and transcendental, capturing the tone of the lyrics beautifully. It’s sooo nice!
Blurain – Another Day, Another Challenge | Pop Rock
Today I got a special gem for you! Blurain has just recently hit 100 subscribers and he put a massive banger to celebrate! “Another Day, Another Challenge” is a track dedicated to our favourite yellow pegasus, exploring her everyday live and struggles with an upbeat melody, and interesting lyrics, some of them people are probably gonna relate to quite a lot. This track definitely gets a big recommendation, not just for Rock fans but for everyone, so give it a listen and enjoy!
PrinceWhateverer – [CODE PHANTOM] (Destabilize Pt.4a) | Metal
PrinceWhateverer’s latest release is a raging tune about every pony’s favorite fake filly, Sweetie Bot! The track begins with bouncy chiptune arpeggios before devolving into the heavier guitars and drums. Throughout, you’ll hear lyrics filled with tons of programmer lingo intermixed with the sounds of warning alarms, breaking out occasionally into unique sections that contain glitches galore or incredible piano flourishes! It’s an incredibly energetic tune that you definitely don’t want to miss!
PSFMer – Boulder | Footwork
Footwork, certainly something unexpected, but it’s always fun to discover something new! The track is pretty much an amazing mish mash of whatever came to PSFMer’s mind. The genre itself draws from ghetto house with influences of hip hop and drum and bass thrown in for flavouring. Boulder draws from Maud’s rock poems to achieve rapidfire staccato sample patterns. Honestly this track is amazing to listen to just from how creative it is, and discovering a new genre along the way is a nice bonus, so have a listen and take a deep dive into this new genre, you wont regret it!
rawrity – need to go home ft. SOUND BANDIT | Pop
rawrity’s back with the latest installment in a series of tracks about their OC looking for and meeting Pinkie Pie! “need to go home” nails that bittersweet sound with its chord progression and several moments where the instrumental drops out, leaving us with just reverb, the echo of a moment passed. The pony chops in the background are a delight, the lyrics make great use of imagery, and SOUND BANDIT’s vocals always bring in some extra hyperpop energy. Great work you two!
EveryDayDashie – Pirates of the Ponyvillain | Classical / Epic Orchestral
Have you ever wondered what would happen if Disney and Hasbro came together to make a My Little Pony x Pirates of the Caribbean crossover? While that will probably never happen, we can at least imagine with EveryDayDashie’s song “Pirates of the Ponyvillain.” Featuring a reimagining of the famous “He’s a Pirate” tune and Dashie’s incredible talent on the violin adding onto said theme, this song is full of epic adventure from start to finish. It is Dashie’s subtle & signature MLP musical licks that they add to every one of their songs that shines once again, reminding us that this song is still pony at its core. If you told me this song was taken straight from the Pirates of the Caribbean OST, I would probably believe you at first.
Thrack – Canterlot Express (Feat Jesh PK and Ocean Breeze) | Acoustic Shanty
Things don’t need to be complicated to be amazing, and Thrack proves it here with his song “Canterlot Express.” This simple melody – with just a handful of instruments and accompanying vocals from Jesh PK & Ocean Breeze – perfectly emulates that feeling of passing time with strangers on a train as you all travel somewhere to start a new life. The lyrics capture Thrack’s goofy and charming personality as each verse introduces a new character on the Canterlot Express, explaining where they came from and why they are going to Canterlot. Sometimes all you just need one short, simple driving lick and entertaining lyrics to make a fun and enjoyable song.
Elias Frost – Full Moon | Cinematic Orchestral
The king has returned! Elias Frost is back, not just with new music, but a whole new series. This Luna-themed composition draws upon the history of Old Equestria, drawing you in with soft piano and gentle strings before unleashing the might of full choral and orchestral sounds. Check it out and stay tuned to Elias’ channel for more releases from this series!
MelodyBrony – S.O.V.E.R.E.I.G.N (Feat. PrinceWhateverer, Blackened Blue & Talknet) | Metal
Melody Brony’s latest release is a Chrysalis inspired track which throws just as much punch as when she invaded Canterlot back in season 2! Featuring the talents of PrinceWhateverer and Blackened Blue, the trio really throw down into heavy metal territory, with insane guitar riffs, thrashing drums, and a powerful chorus. The track also makes excellent use of sirens, both at the beginning to introduce the track, but also sprinkled throughout the arrangement and into a hardcore screaming section in the middle. Hopefully we’ll get to see a live crowd mosh to this banger someday!
