When I first listened to this song, I was drinking my Morning Coffee! (for real!) A much pleasant House track, it will brighten up your morning with an uplifting composition full of joyous sounds, and a gorgeous artwork of Dashie by Fensu-San!

Bag Raiders Vs. Brilliant Venture – Shootin’ Pony Stars (End of the Year 2k17 ReMix) | Complextro
To celebrate the new year, Brilliant Venture crafted an inventive ponification of sorts of the meme-famous Shooting Stars by Bag Raiders, in an intricate and trippy fashion! Gummy and visuals by Xol The Great are helping the immersion into space and the pondering of existential questions, as we get lost in the many musical wonders… I also recommend checking out Brilliant Venture’s newly released Instrumentals v.2+ album!
Indie Notes – The Show | Acoustic Rock / Alternative Rock
This is some really heavy feels! Indie Notes comes back with a really touching song about Trixie and how she tries to hide the true self from the audience during her shows. A song that probably can give you nostalgia of old Trixie episodes and can led you a tear to the eye! The riffs of the acoustic guitar are well performed and the vocals are really amazing! Looks like that Radiohead and David Bowie meet up! The lyrics are also really emotional and deep! Good job Indie! You did good, hope to listen more from you!

Good job Ataraxia! You made me cry a little, for the feels!
Osoch – Freedom | Metalcore / Progressive Metal
Osoch releases a 7 minutes track for celebrate the new year! A track about Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash! I like it’s progressive riffs and the almost-djent parts, a true masterpiece in terms of composing and instrumentalisation! Osoch did an awesome work in there! That guitar riffs! I love every corner of this track! Keep up the good work Osoch, good job on this one!

Przewalski’s Ponies – Snowdrop | Art Pop
The Russian group Przewalski’s Ponies have a new song about Snowdrop. Gentle, well-paced, and delightfully atmospheric, it’s very relaxing. A poignant mix of simple electronics and strings permeate throughout the song, and Andy Feelin’s vocals are expertly sung.
174UDSI – Pony Disco Ball | House
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 4 January 2018.
174UDSI’s house music always manages to get me grooving, especially when he includes such awesome vocal chops. Combined with a fun bounce-y chord progression and some good use of percussion, there’s plenty to help you dance here.
ertrii – Time Alone | Piano Improv
For many out there, it is time for the seasonal blues. The new year brings out self-reflection and we are not always pleased with where we landed. ertrii beautifully captures that somber emotion in this improvisational piano piece. Delicately mingling the lonely, high keys with the ambiance and drive of the bass tones over a slow tempo provoking reflection, ertrii gorgeously demonstrates that lowly, solitary feeling we all get from time to time.
