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.
Original
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.
The_snake_skin蛇皮 – The Pony with a Hundred Faces | Rap / Hip-Hop
I can’t say I’d ever heard Chinese rap before I came across one of The_snake_skin蛇皮’s songs – the horse fandom once again fosters cultural exchange! Snake’s flow is fantastic in this rap about Pinkie flexing her many, many talents. And don’t worry if you don’t speak Chinese – the uploader provides full English subtitles!
Pipetka – Autumn Dreams | Chillstep
As the days shorten and the nights draw in sooner, Pipetka has something for us to reflect the vibe of the season. Vintage-sounding guitars and strings combine with a trap-inspired drum beat to create a relaxed atmosphere. Take a listen for a bit of a nostalgic feel as the weather grows cooler.
[ASOS] MCO945 – Drowning In The Clouds | Liquid Drum & Bass
Liquid DnB is always so relaxing and satisfying to listen to! MCO945 makes their YouTube debut here with a song from last year’s A State of Sugar album. The soundscape is so airy and atmospheric, it captures the essence of the title perfectly! Check it out for something that’ll make you want to both dance and chill at the same time.
