If anyone within the music community has grown leaps and bounds as of late in their production, it is Sylvver. If you listen to their original track crafted in 2021, it is no surprise why she made a huge splash this year with their first featured track on P@D Wanderlust! This remix focuses on Starlight Glimmer role as Twilight’s rival in season 5. Oh, what could have been if she stayed a villain the whole series, huh? You can feel that spite and venom fuelling Sylvver’s big, popping melodies on this track. Don’t just take my word for it! Listen for yourself, and you’re bound to have a fun time enjoying the vibe and vocal chops of Starlight’s ego, especially all you Glimmer Gang fans!
Original
Direct Current – Evening Gloom | Ambient
It’s often agreed that listening to ambient music is a fantastic method of relaxing, and Direct Current’s new ambient track “Evening Gloom” exactly shows why. As you hear the calm ambient pad rolling in, you immediately feel a range of sensations as if the sound of the river is flowing across your body and the angelic voices are singing near your ears. I really adore how the tranquil environment and serene harmony are well combined to paint a peaceful, undisturbed scene. Whether you’re looking for a moment to put away your stress or just enjoying the music of nature, this track is definitely a great choice for your playlist. Gorgeous work!
Harmpony – Regretful Future of Snowfall Frost | Orchestral
If you’re looking for something epic to listen to, this orchestral tune by Harmpony is exactly the go-to. As you march into a freezing blizzard, these intense and lively hits of an orchestra complement each other to fabricate an epic, menacing battlefield, greeting you with a frigid but mysterious atmosphere. But the story doesn’t end there as this masterpiece suddenly drifts into a regretful, melancholic vibe elicited by various solo instruments. The soundtrack absolutely nails the rich variety of atmospheres, and whether or not you enjoy epic orchestral music, you can surely feel the vibrations through the fierce and spirited sounds. Wonderful work!
Rarity Vrymer Collective – Rarity Investigates (VIP) | Dubstep
Well then, this certainly was a surprise I didn’t see coming! Starting out with entire spoken lines from the Equestria girls special with some lovely melodies the song at first seems to focus a lot on official vocals, but other then the intro you get one more bit of official lines, and other then that it’s just pure dubstep beauty! The song has everything from smooth melodies, drum builds, vocal builds and fills, and incredibly fun and energy filled drops, in simplest terms the track is six minutes of pure power and never stopping fun, and not a second seems boring or repetitive!
elameaa – MOONBOW | House
Sometimes one of these tracks comes along and you find yourself smiling and comfortable. Elameaa, with a bit of help from SpinScissor, brings you a beat and presentation that will have you delighted. This track is well-edited and composed with catchy vocal chops of the darling of Gen 5, Izzy Moonbow. Old fans of the brony music scene might feel very nostalgic for its pleasing melodies and Izzy’s bubbly and quirky nature. I promise you will be smiling after a bad day with this track! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
EveryDayDashie – Spring Festival Encore 新春欢腾 | Epic Orchestral / World
It’s always a treat to hear the My Little Pony lick in a different musical style & on different instruments, especially when it is styled & mixed together with something as epic as traditional Chinese orchestra & musical storytelling. EveryDayDashie seems to reward us with a new style for every one of their songs, this time focusing more on a traditional Chinese style. But don’t let the name or style throw you off, this track is more than Chinese orchestral as we know it, adding non-traditional Chinese instruments to the mix like the unification of cultures; I still can’t get over the electric guitar stealing the show like the dramatic tension in a narrative. This song definitely felt like I was in the middle of a festival for sure, celebrating traditions of both past & present, and most importantly, giving us that feeling of a complete story.
Gloomrot – Mhm (Ft. Ditherer) | Hip-Hop
The madlad Gloomrot once again delivers a dope Hip-Hop piece with the help of lyrical mastermind Ditherer, this time bringing us a tune about Marble Pie. (Legit though, we need MORE marble pie songs within this fandom!) And it is throughout this dope straight-in-your-face type of boombap beat, how the story is told regarding Marble’s well being and state of mind. Dark experiences and thoughts, can truly, TRULY change a person. And I can tell you, that cute poor mhm-ing honse deserves a hug man… Her story throughout this dark masterpiece, is in either case wonderfully produced & performed by Dith and Gloom.
RoseTV – RISE (Feat. Nina Hope & JohnnyFerno) | Piano Ballad
Words sometimes cannot describe how much raw emotion can come from a single track, and as I sit here typing & re-writing this post, the one word I keep circumnavigating to is…wow…just wow… Where do I even begin? RoseTV definitely left a mark with this maiden pony track. Based off an old idea/theory that they made ten years ago about Luna’s transformation and mindset behind becoming Nightmare Moon, this dynamic track with combination of soft piano, simple drums, repeating lyrical lines, and distant harmonies will make you want to raise your arms up and absolutely pour your soul out to the lyrics with others in unity (in a similar fashion to the modern day “worship” songs). It’s a lyrical beauty that will turn off your mind and turn on your heart.
ALostCarolean – Starlight’s Last Glimmer | Darksynth / Industrial
Another spectacle of a darksynth tune has been delivered to us, thanks to ALostCarolean. And this tune, tells the story of a falsehood, leading to a betrayal with no escape, fueling a plot of revenge… and finally, Starlight’s last Glimmer. A story told with amazing electronics and sinister instrumental works. I love the flow of it and the overall vibe of a scheme being played out to upmost perfection, just like this tune, with epic build-ups and outstanding blast-offs!
Spikey Wikey – The Sirens | Bass House
Propa dir’y stuff this. Spikey Wikey is not only a connoisseur of electronic music in the fandom, but he makes some fantastic music himself too! This track draws on inspiration from UK bass styles of music, with somewhat minimal drums letting the lower register speak for itself. Interspersed with samples of the Dazzlings from Rainbow Rocks too, it has an element of darkness that draws you in and hints at the force of nature you’re about to face off against.
