P@D: Zenith has a real treat for you with this one. The nightclubs of Canterlot are vibing, especially when the royal sisters are in the house! We listen in on Celestia and Luna with some excellent voiceovers by AnimeXalchemist. The voiceover feeds into the life of this track and is complete with the immersive club atmosphere mixed into the background. You follow along with the mischief of sisters as this electric and bouncy beat will put you dead center in that club with them! Insanely well produced and a gem on this album! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.

[P@D] RedSpark – New Horizon | Orchestral
If you are one of those bronies just itching for some love for Zecora and the zebras, P@D: Zenith is the place to be! Give one listen to this aromatic and divine score composed by RedSpark, and you’ll find yourself right in the middle of the conflict of RedSpark’s Equestria at war project. The showcase of the Zebrica region will surely please any zebra fans with this immersion with a switch right at the end! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
Nugget – Pesticide | Metal
I always love me some good ‘ol Metal, always. And it’s always nice to see people fullfill their dreams. Such as Nugget has done here, who always wanted to make his own Metal track! And so, he finally did with the help of Blackened as his back-up for this track. Telling a short but epic story of the fight being ON between Celestia and Chrysalis… HYPE HYPE HYPE! I LOVE this song! The tension really gets through the instrumentals here, and the structure really is well set-up here. I head-bang to this as I write this Article. Nugget really put himself out there with this Track and I hope he’ll get the spotlight he deserves for it! Who knows what the follow up to this song will sound like… (and yes, that IS a hint to make a follow up song, Nug. DO IT.)
Acid Applejack – I love everything | Deep House
Acid Applejack strong production area is hard sub genres of electronic music, but as a skilful music producer is natural at some point to blend out and touch other musical wonders. This aesthetic jam featured on the latest album release Everfree Park: After Hours from the label Balloon Party will dive you in a chilling adventurous nightlife vibe inside the heart of the Everfree Forest. Creative and benevolent vocal sampling from Fluttershy’s song So Many Wonders, you’ll love their accompaniment along with the blissful synth sounds. If you’re a late night enjoyer to party or relax, this song and album is a flavorous catch for your ears.
SCR4TCHK4T – Thirteen Moons | House
A smooth danceable and bopable track for librarian listeners and fans of Twilight Sparkle. Being as a fitting theme for her, plays a cheerful and ear candy melody with smooth transitions from beginning to end. Speaking of melodies, you can catch this along with more pony themed songs in SCR4TCHK4T’s album “Melodies of Equestria“, various songs with individual themes and music genres of various ponies and characters, recommendable album to breakdance with your friends.
Eastquestria Records – Vol. 1: Prelude | Compilation Album
It’s not every day you find a double compilation album in your inbox (thanks Drixale), so this was a very pleasant surprise. Eastquestria is a new pony music collective from China, who last month launched their first compilation album, Prelude. The album spans two “discs”, each one featuring over an hour of music. There’s mostly a mix of electronic and orchestral/soundtrack – some of the latter even includes the sound of some traditional East Asian instruments. If you’re looking for some artists you don’t normally see anywhere else, this double album is a great place to begin!
Koa – Rainbow Disaster Pop | Album | Hyperpop
Content warning: This album features adult language and other explicit content.
Hyperpop has been on the rise in the fandom for the past few years, and now Koa contributes a full album worth of crazy, silly, super-boppin’ hits! Every track on Rainbow Disaster Pop is conceptualized through a different episode from Dawn Somewhere’s series Rainbow Dash Presents, a comical video set which retold notable MLP fanfiction through parody. The entire album exudes punk energy with lots of fun vocal effects, subtle audio nods to Dawn Somewhere, chaotic randomness, hilarity, and so much more!

As Monty Python once said, “now for something completely different!” This song perfectly speaks about Tree Hugger’s vibes of peace and inner chakras, and it’s not something you often hear in the brony music scene. Mumble, the ever-surprising musician he still is, manages to bring something fresh to P@D: Zenith. The merging of reggae with 80’s style rock is far out and rad. Mumble’s vocals bleed style and flare, drawing your mood into this relaxation bliss. General Mumble shows why he lasted so long in this music scene by reinventing himself with music such as this! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[P@D] Paloris – New Day (feat. Caedon Hawk) | Chill House
In the first season of Friendship is Magic, Princess Celestia told Twilight Sparkle there was more to their world than what she saw in books. Over time in that first season, Twilight saw what exactly the Duo of Paloris and Caedon Hawk created here for P@D: Zenith. Caedon Hawk’s wonderous vocals share a valuable message that often unnoticed beauty exists around us. Twilight discovered this once she started her friendship lessons. Paloris’s melodies feed that curiously or as told by them. “Get out and touch some grass and feel the world around you, smell the roses, feel the nature around you, feel alive”. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
Tw3Lv3 – Haze Garden | Album | Lo-Fi / Drum and Bass

Haze Garden is the right blend of lo-fi and drum & bass mixing with perfection! This album is a testament to how good she has become! Let’s take a listen.
