Off Dynamite Grizzly’s latest album The Horses Really Like Techno (that you should really grab), this Faith Mix of Trickery showcases really well the musician’s talent at producing delightful Techno that just feels so unique, soothing, and blissful. It’s something I can’t really explain, but this track just works so well, and puts you in an enjoyable state, it almost feels nostalgic somewhat. Perhaps it is just one of the aspects of the magic of music!

Tworats & N. Hollow – Deity of Dissonance | Dubstep
Another collab of many wonders featuring the rapping coolness of N. Hollow, this Discord-themed track also makes a delightful use of fittingly distorted samples from the show, laying them out over a great melodic instrumental, and making the whole song quite an awesome tribute to the Deity of Dissonance!
Aurelleah – From The Ashes | Orchestral
Editor’s note: Not to be confused with Sprocket’s song of the same name 😉

If you like your orchestral music powerful and epic, you’re in for a treat here as Aurelleah’s released another of their well-crafted pieces. Featuring some beautiful composition and heavy percussive influences, the piece evolves from a bright and light beginning to a more energetic climax throughout the course of the track.
[SoK] Sprocket – From The Ashes | Orchestral

Here’s a little something from the latest Seeds of Kindness album, with one of its regular contributors! Sprocket brings a piece that steadily evolves over time, aping the way a phoenix’s life may play out with themes of life, of death, and of rebirth.
DJT – Sweetness & Lightning | Chillout
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 20 February 2017.
DJT showcases his abilities to make the more relaxed side of electronic music work just as well as the energetic side. Sweetness and Lightning combines beautiful Fluttershy vocal chops with some pared back percussion, pretty piano and soft ambient sounds in a really lovely way.
FritzyBeat – Polychromatic (covering Turquoise Splash) | Pop Rock
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 19 February 2017.
Originally a piece by Turquoise Splash released all the way back in 2012, Polychromatic has been done up in a new coat of paint by FritzyBeat with some help from Jastrian and a very cute animation made by Yudhaikeledai. Fritzy’s vocals fit the track really well, with a similar feel to the original ones, and the mixing provided by Jastrian helps to make sure the instrumental doesn’t feel aged much at all.
HoriXZ0n & Mantlegen – Folds Beyond Supersymmetry | Electro House
This is one collab that is sure to be addictive. HoriXZ0n & Mantlegen come together to create this fantastic electro house track that has an overall energetic atmosphere that continues and varies throughout. The mix of HoriXZ0n’s electro style & plucks, along with Mantegen’s vibrato leads are a wonderful combination that create a fun track!
Suskii – Wizards (VIP) | Dubstep

Now time for Suskii’s VIP of his recent track Wizards!, and he’s upped the quality of the track in general with some very cool new sound design and overall it’s a super professional sounding piece.
[P@D] UndreamedPanic & Totalspark – Arabian Ponies | Bass House
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 19 February 2017.
UndreamedPanic is always excellent with the bass house-style sound design, and Totalspark always throws up some pretty neat chords, so this combination is a match that works terrifically. Together the two of them have crafted a pretty unique sounding track that definitely has an arabian flair.
