Sky in the Box – Queen of Whisky | Neuro Drum & Bass

A new stunning collaboration happened, blending styles in a wonderful way to create something unique. FillyInTheBox’s dark Neurofunk style, as enthralling as ever, meets Sky Runner’s increasingly popular DnB style, hence the new collab name “Sky in the Box”. From the dark depths of the unknown, gathering creativity and the power of Friendship, the two artists crafted this amazing track filled with haunting atmospheres, beautiful melodies and a DnB beat that’s giving it a sick rythm. Also check FillyInTheBox’s upload. This may be “coordinated chaos” as he says, I feel the following quote still applies : “Two in harmony surpasses one in perfection.”

Sky Runner – Heartstrings | Drum & Bass

Sky Runner is on a roll lately, ans this new DnB track from the producer is centered around Lyra Heartstrings and fittingly includes harp melodies, along the equally fitting strings and the masterfully designed percussions giving to the beat an unique spin. One More!

Vylet Pony – Ordinarily.. (feat. Cadie) | Chillout

While it is well-known and heavily confirmed since Scaremaster that Vylet Pony can come up with the most hard-hitting kind of tracks, the producer is just as talented at making blissful Chillout songs that make you feel at ease like it was magic. With the help of Cadie‘s majestic voice providing a humming that seems like it’s coming straight from the heavens, this new release proves to be quite the fitting track to play in repeat as you spend some fluffy time at the spa or cuddling/RP-ing with a friend online.

StrachAttack – Black Magic VIP (feat. NekoWolf) (Rebuck) | Trap

Here it is, ponies!! The brand new rebuck of the VIP of Black Magic (that had already got a Trap Redux), premiered during StrachAttack’s Ciderfest 2016 Performance! (I recommend that mix by the way) As party-material as ever, this rebuck acts as a concentrate of what makes the tune so awesome, with its amazing melodies, heavy bass, delightful Trap elements conducted in StrachAttack’s purest signature sound, and dank additions. Truly to become an all-time classic, it celebrates StrachAttack’s perfect streak of awesome releases both production-wise and mix-wise. Speaking of mixes, I highly recommend his TrotCon 2016 mix, that I grown very addicted to.

[P@D] DJT & R3CTIFIER – No More Than This (feat. PegasYs) | Electro House

Some more Voyager greatness getting a proper YouTube release now, this amazing collaboration track displays all the might from the fusion of DJT’s and R3ctifier‘s musical talents, in a Electro House masterpiece that could only be made possible by such an union. Not only an impressive instrumental full of beautiful melodies and exhibiting a solid progression, but also pony vocal chops that are always so very welcome, and delightful vocals from PegasYs who remains my favorite male vocalist in the community ever since I discovered his voice with Starlight’s Rainbow Rain!

Audio

[P@D] Francis Vace – Still Waiting | Soft Rock

Francis Vace’s beautiful solo contribution to the Voyager P@D album gets the YouTube video release it deserves, featuring a much inspired and passionate animation from Hackd that really contributes to the depth and the feelings evoked by this much emotional song. Taking on the theme of the headcanon of Twilight’s immortality, it brings all the depth with Francis’ amazing heartfelt vocals along a tender and reflective Soft Rock instrumental, as Twilight shares her inner thoughts and feelings to the moon, wishing that Luna would still be here at her side.

Audio

The L-Train – Party Cannon Overdrive (feat. Francis Vace & TheMusicReborn) | Skacore

This is my jam!! An amazing fusion made possible by a most lovely collaboration, this Skacore track blends Francis Vace‘s Ska-Punk style and vocals with The L-Train’s signature Metal sound for a combination of vocal styles and an instrumental of much originality and force, sublimated by a masterful trumpet play from TheMusicReborn. While it looks like our friend Anon is in trouble, we sure are getting the special treatment from Pinkie as she inspired such a wonderful collab. Among the delightful Ska vibes, the heavy guitar riffs, and both the softer and harsher vocals from Francis, this impressive song will take any party to its peak, perhaps triggering an Overdrive!

Audio

Vahts – Feeling Helpless | Synthwave

It’s time for a new release under Francis Vace’s alias for electronic music, Vahts, and this much welcome Synthwave track brings forward some amazing character depth from Applejack along emotional synths and a characteristic vocal style. Originality, awesome composition, blissful atmosphere, and underlying feelings, this song has got pretty much everything.

Audio

Ponyphonic – Shy Heart | Acoustic

Ponyphonic is known for their timeless (relative to fandom lifespan) songs, and it’s about time we saw another! It’s been over a year since their last original pony song, and this certainly is a great way to make a comeback. With so many melodies and sounds being played by guitar and strings in this, you’d be surprised to hear that it’s all done using live instruments. That’s right, not a single orchestral VST in sight, something which I greatly admire when available and done properly! And with so much emotion poured into the song, it’s likely to draw up some feeling in you too.
