If you have been paying attention these past few months, then you know that it has been a great summer (or winter if you are in the southern hemisphere) for BlueBrony music! Following the incredible soundtrack for Minty Root’s Missing Out film, BlueBrony unveiled this great compilation of remastered old songs and new originals! Playful, adventurous, and often times deeply emotional, there is a lot of great variation to look forward to!

DJSleepyHooves – SL O P NATION_-_Side A | Plunderphonics
Editor’s note: video contains flashing lights
Izzy Moonbow, her sparkling energy and artistic unicycling lesson has splashed into the hearts of the music community. DJSleepyHooves did a dive into the song “All For The Love of Trash” from Tell Your Tale episode 13 and did a inventive spin sampling it and a luminous video edit from the original. An easygoing intro that’ll get you off the ground to nippy drums to breakdance, dexterous crackly vocal sampling for your ears to nurture and a diversity of flamboyant synth sounds, this is a banger for your MLP G5 playlist!
Skyshard – Way Home | Orchestral
Way Home is a happy ending story of the first fully cinematic and orchestral album called “Tiny Sky” by Skyshard. Their ponysona “Sky”, after getting lost during an ecstatic adventure in the never-ending Equestrian skies, finds their path back home with the tenderness of the piano and spirited string sections with resonating trumpets as a triumph for Sky. A breathtaking sight to behold for her and an outstanding composition for us with sound effects from the nature of the wondrous sky to be intensely enveloped in the story.
The album “Tiny Sky” is inspired from the G4 timeline of MLP, contains collabs with Darkspeen Shore and Koron Korak and a variety of orchestra pieces full of fantasy, heroism, electronic hybrid and folk. A whole theatrical album divided in three stories. Once this well-crafted album is in your music folder, you’ll become a Cloud Seeker, altitude and clear skies awaits for you to fly side by side with Sky.
SlightlyAmiss – Horse Enough | Post-Hardcore
Alright ponies, time to not take ourselves too serious for a while, cause neither does this song! ‘Horse Enough’ is essentially a stab against people who get elitist about how Pony the music their favourite musician makes is, it’s a song dedicated to all those ‘mlp…please’ people who think they can make demands about the content of songs of their favourite artists. Of course as you’d expect from a SlightlyAmiss song this also includes some nods to fandom memes in both lyrics and artwork, a good example being a line that references the old ‘jar’ and the nod to Vylet Pony’s ‘Antonymph’ in a poster in the artwork. This song kinda portrays a toxic side of people’s dedication to the fandom, where people get entitled to their favourite fandom musicians only producing pony music and if they don’t, they get people saying it’s ‘not Horse Enough’. So apart from this song being an absolute pleasure to listen to, it also provides some nice food for thought.
Ethan Toavs – Honolulu | Orchestral
Since 2014 Ethan Toavs has been sharing significant orchestral arrangements and masterly original compositions of MLP G4 and also the new wave of G5. As a wholehearted composer, he also explores the phenomenal world of G3. His recent piece “Honolulu” and great sound at finest is inspired by an artwork of “sydscribbs”. Impeccably for the G3 character, this charming song strolls soulfully the melodies by the serene touch of orchestral string instruments and a gleaming soundful piano. This is a chef kiss for uncommon G3 fan music.
MelodyBrony – ROYALTY | Metalcore
Always a treat getting a new metallic track from MelodyBrony, they’ve definitely been on a roll lately! The mid 2000’s vibes are strong here, with a very melodic vocal lead complimenting the steady beat and hauntingly beautiful string section. There’s something to be said for a song that says its piece and doesn’t overstay its welcome, and ROYALTY doesn’t go on any longer than it needs to; but if you’re anything like me, it’ll just be on repeat for a good while.
Algo at All – Lullaby for a Lost Soul | Acoustic
Algo’s latest musical offering certainly lives up to its name! Like many common lullabies, it’s incredibly relaxing yet the lyrics are twinged with sadness. It’s a beautifully simple piece of music made up of just 4 components – guitar, voice, drum and strings – but sometimes that’s all you need to tell a compelling story.
Nyanakaru – Methodic Ways To Break A Mind | Electronic Album
After at least a year in the making, Nyanakaru has finally completed his newest album. As it happens, we’ve actually covered each one of these single releases so far (some under his former alias). You can check those out below. The last addition to this is True Colors, an intensely dark and heavy glitchy drumstep-like song – I’m not entirely sure how to describe it, so I recommend taking a listen yourself!
See our previous posts for; Clear My Head, Falling Apart, Sixty Twenty Twelve, The Brightness and Oneiromancy.
Japkozjad – Drunk | Bass House
It’s the weekend and your neighbor has invited a small group of friends but with immense party energy.
The sounds of content drunken cheers, the scent of fresh pizza, the booming drums and reverberating bass drops are all part of the party nature, all in one animated 2D video done by the 19 year-old musician Japkozjad, along with a team of friends mentioned in the description. Don’t miss their next party, bring snacks and don’t forget to download and stream “Drunk” to electrify your weekend parties through speakers.
Koron Korak – A Nice Time on Holidays | Zouk
Warning : Sun cream is required during the listening of this song.
Zouk is a rare gem in the fandom and Koron Korak provides us diverting tropical vibes with this enjoyful song. Tuneful synth melodies, a rhythmic bass line and the charm of the drums accompanied by a French Caribbean cocktail is the mixture of excellence to dance to this warm tune with your pony friends on a beach.
