In a cool show of musicianship and collaboration, TCB and Ditherer had Buffalo Brony add a verse to their recent hit, Admirer. The song is about Sweetie Belle’s role in The Break-Up Break-Down, wondering who and where her secret admirer could be. BB really plays off of Ditherer’s flow well and adds his own contribution very nicely with great harmonies sprinkled in. Both rappers’ lyrics are incredible and give off a clear impression of Sweetie Belle’s self-esteem and anxiety throughout the episode. As always, TCB’s track is incredible with a great bass-line and excellent chops!
Original
[P@D] BL1NKY – Volley | Dubstep
Reappearing in a big way after nearly two years, BLI1NKY shows us that he still has got it with this new track featured on Ponies at Dawn Enigma. Volley introduces some great chiptune elements before getting heavy with the wubs. The synth provides a great melody throughout this upbeat, cheery track.
Miles Kintner – Missing You | Piano Solo
This show can make us relate to many things, and Miles Kintner’s heartfelt tribute to Applejack’s missing parents is just as emotional as it gets. A magnificent composition of powerful piano melodies is comforting the heart, as both fond memories and a strong resolve get reflected through the music.
[P@D] 174UDSI – Somnambula | House
Yet another banger off Enigma, 174UDSI comes through with one of his best and hardest-hitting tracks yet! Taking inspiration from the titular pony and from Eastern music in general, the atmosphere and creative percussion are sure to take any listener by surprise. It’s also a total banger of a house tune with an insanely catchy melody to boot! Congrats on another P@D feature, UDSI!
[P@D] Osoch – Parasitic (feat. PrinceWhateverer, Arabesque Sympony & The L-Train) | Groove Metal / Alternative Metal / Nu Metal
Headbanging song incoming! The most metal song on Enigma along with Thrasher experiment of Djent, Osoch delivers a groovy alternative metal track with the vocal helps of PrinceWhateverer and Arabesque Sympony plus an amazing guest guitar solo done by The L-Train! This track give me Pantera, Korn, Linkin Park, Machine Head feels, the harsh vocals are soo well performed and the clean vocals too! And then the guitar solos are also sooo good! It’s a juicy track! If you love Nu Metal with Groove Metal influences, this is the song for you! Also that break <3.

[P@D] Foozogz – Going Lucid (feat. Mei) | Electronica
Who isn’t excited when they see the name Foozogz at this point? Fresh off the new Ponies at Dawn release, Enigma, Going Lucid is a wonderfully light and happy song about finding the place where the things in life get better – almost as if it is too good to be real. The top-notch use of a great synth throughout the track really sets the “dreaming” stage and Mei’s vocals cast incredible overtones of the theme of the track. A standout on an already phenomenal album, be sure to check out Going Lucid!
[P@D] down-74×9. – We | Deathstep
It’s not often a newcomer is able to so thoroughly impress as down-74×9. has here! With some eerie backing atmosphere and excellent use of the propaganda speaker samples from the season 5 premiere, We is one of the heaviest bass tunes this fandom’s ever seen and deathstep afficionados will certainly dig this one, as it’s not a genre we hear in the fandom too often (not to discount Syzy, of course!). This first song is definitely deserving of the P@D and Cider Party features!
[P@D] Totalspark – What Once Was (feat. Synthis) | Chillout
One of a few re-imaginings on Enigma, this version of Sparky’s original Itchigotchi-featuring tune feels more fully realized and heartfelt (though Itchigotchi is very subtly sampled here). Synthis could not have been a better choice to feature on the song and his verse feels as soulful as his other works. This version feels far less rudimentary, with some very creative percussion throughout and an excellent intro and coda. One of my personal favorites from the hyper-talented Totalspark to date!
[P@D] John Kenza – Looking At The Stars (feat. Agatan) | Future Bass / Trap
I am still emotional from hearing this. Legit, John Kenza & Agatan bring us Looking At The Stars, a Beautiful song about Flurry Heart all grown up. Despite having faced many obstacles, still standing strong and doing what she loves. Shining brighter than ALL the stars! It’s like, watching Agatan. Me and Him have been through and we both keep growing and learning. I am so proud of him making all these steps and to see him Grow, getting the recognition he deserves. And I love him for it. Legit, I will always have your back bro! I gotchu. ❤
As for John; Thank you for letting my bro do this with you man. Legit, this is dope and you did amazing.
Everybody, show some love!

[P@D] Mantlegen & Einarx – Euphoria | Future Bass
Now for something completely out of left field for the Magnus Records duo of Mantlegen and Einarx! This is an incredibly sample-heavy and high-energy future bass tune, contrasting with their normally dark and heavy music. The use of pony and various other samples are incredibly inventive and evoke a feeling of warmth and pure joy in the listener. If you liked DJT’s Peppermint, you’ll love this one. Never would I have thought a Soulja Boy sample would work in a pony song, but lo and behold!
