Royalpony’s back with another one of their famous hardstyle songs, with the slight variation of rawstyle (although to be honest I wouldn’t know the difference >.>). It’s certainly a divisive genre, but there’s definitely a strong following of this style of music, this one’s for you guys.
Original
Radiarc – Ex Nocte | Orchestral
Although I’m tagging this as orchestral, it seems to have some electronic elements and a very cinematic feel with a strong emphasis on the percussion. If you like Radiarc’s pieces surrounding the Luna / Nightmare Moon theme, then you’re bound to enjoy this too.
[KM] Nicolas Dominique – Forward | Trance
Another track off the King Mars tribute album, Nicolas presents a very cool, progressive composition which draws from a number of stylistic influences. The track is driven by a steady trance kick which carries the listener forward through an evolving series of atmospheres.
PonyFireStone – Cantastic | Electro
New song from PFS that…sound rather similar to Alex S & PinkiePieSwear’s Disco Lights, from the original Balloon Party album. Apparently it’s an unintentional influence, but regardless it still sounds awesome, and perhaps even better made than the original! inb4 torches and pitchforks…
Jupiter Maroon – ON-OFF | House
It’s Friday, dance a little! Even better, do it to this latest song from Jupiter Maroon, who it’s nice to see some new pony music from again. 128bpm and futurey vibes, a fairly standard combo, but it works so well.
Sights Unseen – I’m Still Here | Electronic / Rap
Luna songs are always good in my books, but when they’re inspired by real life events, it adds a personal flair to it that makes it perhaps a bit more special. Sights’ new song takes partial inspiration from Do Princesses Dream of Magical Sheep, and for the second time he’s ever tried rapping, he’s done a pretty good job. Sights, you get a thumbs up and an e-hug.
NeoN – A Day At The Beach | Tropical House
I’m still not overly familiar with the tropical house subgenre, but considering it’s July, now’s a better time than ever to get those summer vibes going! This new song from NeoN is super smooth and super chill with soft piano chords and a wonderfully uplifting lead sounds.
Direct Current – Fade | Pop
A sort of alternative-indie-pop piece from Direct Current to finish the day, with what I believe is his vocal debut! And as with me when I first tried singing on my own songs, it was pitch correction to the rescue. This two halves of this piece are sung from the perspectives of Shining Armor and Candance respectively; that duality is always a nice touch.
NextLevelDerp – Eidolon Pony EP | Electronic
Just two months after his last EP, NLD has a brand new one for us! Forecasts show mostly hardcore with a touch of house, all with a spooky ghost vibe going on. Catch the full thing after the break.
The Cosine Pitchshifterz – DustyKatt | Hardstyle
I didn’t think we’d see any more sweep remixes but apparently there are never enough of them! The Cosine Pitchshifterz have another track in their usual heavy hardstyle, catch it above for some heavy beats.
