Original
Thunder Dash – Together In Unity | Piano Solo
In a beautiful call for a unified, loving Equestria and Earth, Thunder Dash, one of the fandom’s absolute champions of positivity, has composed this wonderful piano piece. It’s a touching tribute to the spirit of G5 and the MLP values, and I got some nice Bill Withers vibes while listening, recalling for me another great song about love and solidarity. This song is definitely its own thing, though, and Thunder Dash’s piano work has some really nice melodic progressions that seem to acknowledge the complexities of the world and the difficulty of unifying it even if it would create an obviously better world. In the end, the beautiful hope and heart of this song shines through, urging the listener to work towards a better future no matter the difficulties.
SpinScissor – No More Apologies | Midtempo / Alternate Electronic
SpinScissor is honing the unique emotion in his songs even more through practice of the magic that is music, and this new release might just be a new peak! The emotional melodies throughout that incredible progression certainly resonated with me, while the heartfelt vocals are telling the commitment to newfound meanings explained in the description. Ethereal and magical, the piece will take you to higher planes!
char – Any Fuss | Alternate Electronic
Indubitably among the best and most emotional pony songs ever written in my eyes, char’s tribute released on the 10th anniversary of SGaP’s music is a commitment to the cultural preservation of such pony vocal chops-powered pieces of magic that call upon our Passion. With a progression reflecting Starlight’s character depth and a masterful composition that evokes emotion so well, the song is nothing short of breathtaking, and a gem you don’t want to sleep on!
Deavas – 314 | Thrash Metal
Lots of violent lyrical imagery in this one. Feel free to click ahead if you’re okay with that.
[Equinity] Tw3Lv3 & Lexie – さいこう ! (Saikou!) | Kawaii Drum & Bass
It’s always a thrill to see what Tw3lv3 will come up with next. Well, on Equinity 05. I amusingly saw this called Weeb D&B, and they’re not wrong with that nickname. Kawaii is a type of anime-centered j-pop. Lexie and Tw3Lv3 have cleverly mashed up some fine D&B with what I do think are RD’s Japanese VA’s vocal chops with overtones of J-pop. It honesty works and with a theme of the track with Tw3Lv3’s skills at making genres mesh together in pure harmony. Just listen, and you get what I am talking about. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself
Ardhy Mahardhy – Through Space and Time | Progressive House / Trance
The season 5 finale of “Friendship is Magic” follows Twilight and Spike on an epic journey through time and space to oppose Starlight and save the world. Ardhy Mahardhy has set out to capture this adventure in song form. An up-tempo melody played on a fun synth is complimented by a driving beat propelled by muted drums. Urgent sounds of time fleeing like a runaway train permeate the midsection, and I felt a sense of flying through time and space in a shower of a glittering lights. The overall effect is a feeling of time rushing towards an epic outcome as worlds collide and destinies are determined. This piece really lives up to its name as it carries the listener on an interstellar journey “through space and time!”
RedSpark – Phoenix Rising | Epic Orchestral
Phoenixes are unquestionably some of the most dazzling mythical beings portrayed in the MLP universe, and RedSpark’s “Phoenix Rising” pays homage to these compelling creatures with inspired musical story telling. The piece is initially subdued, not immediately throwing the listener into an epic battle, but rather, creating a slow crescendo with strings, horns, and powerful drums that slowly build to epic heights. Later on, the climactic moment drops to a steady pace complimented by faint vocals in the background. Towards the end of the piece, the instruments recede to feature only the vocals in the forefront. However, the powerful drumbeats and the horns soon return to achieve a final epic triumph. Though, overall, the piece is somewhat subdued in nature, strong emotional overtones resonate through every instrument, creating a truly inspiring vibe throughout the track from start to finish. Enjoy this first track from RedSpark’s upcoming new album; it’s a tasty intro of the good things to come!
[Equinity] SP1TF1R3 – Pretentious | Future Bounce
If Sunny and her friends ever find out about Trixie, then this song is a pretty good reminder of her character! What a pound and pulse of this track bassline. The fusion of sounds of Melbourne bouse with some flavor of Future Bass! Oh boy, we may have stepped into the new era of My Little Pony, But the bangers from compilations like the newly released Equinity: 05 are still kicking some flank. The vibe of this track flows with the old-school season one Trixie. The vocal chops with the uptempo bounce scream the heelish “I’m better than you” vibe of classic Trixie Lunamoon. The title of this song is perfect! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself. I got to say be ready for more love than ever for the ponies of generation 4 and 5.
Songbird Choir – Legacy | Orchestral
With Generation 5’s release of “Legacy” right on our doorstep, many of us in this community find ourselves looking back at countless fond memories of G4, the unforgettable legacy it has left behind, and the friendships that will never end! Such is the inspiration behind Songbird Choir’s emotional tribute to the G4 fandom. Both uplifting and melancholic chords comprise this piece with powerful strings and drums flowing throughout, complimented by gentle piano sections. The track’s alternating happy and sad chords highlight the good memories of the show along with the solemnity of saying goodbye to many beloved characters and compelling stories that have captured our imaginations for many years. Songbird Choir has even created a nostalgic PMV to go along with their commemorative piece. Experience a nostalgic trip down memory lane as “Legacy” immerses you in heartwarming memories of the “magic” that friendship can bring.
