A starry and chill yet somehow upbeat instrumental from SmD House! You can really hear the musician’s signature sound, with these icy synths! Also check out the other recent release from the musician, Night Dilirium, a favorite of mine because of the Night vibes and how it feels like it tells a story! (read my comment there for more details)
Original
MidnightFritz – Friendship Lasts Forever | Chillout
MidnightFritz had such a wonderful idea with the theme and title of this new release, that definitely conveys all the love from true friends with the cuddly instrumental. Listening to this while focusing on the love that you feel will make you tear up… At least, it happened to me, and I wish that it could happen to you too!
I love you all everypony ♥ *group hug*
Songbird Choir – Watching the Stars | Orchestral
Everypony, come here and let’s gather to watch the stars together on that hill with the ponies we love ♥ Why, Songbird Choir got the perfect BGM for us while we do that! The cuddly and Night vibes from the track are encompassed beautifully by the piano in the first part, and wait… for there’s a grand surprise that will take you to cloud nine! Lastly, the track calls for an emotional moment of reflection at its finale, surrounded by the love of friends…
Tw3Lv3 – A Good Friend Is All You Need | Lo-fi
Let’s herald Tw3Lv3’s triumphant return after troubles with YouTube! Back in full force and more motivated than ever, the master of Lo-fi in the community is presenting us a chill and heart-warming piece that embodies the feelings of relief and Friendship to perfection. Indeed, it came from the heart!
PrinceWhateverer & Jalmaan – Enemy Undefined (Club Mix) | Drum & Bass
Okay, everypony, today we return once more to “Enemy Undefined”, this time the club mix! I already did an article for the original (I call the Version on PrinceWhateverer’s channel the “original” here for lack of a better term) which you can find here, so I’m not going to talk too much about lyrics. Since this is a club mix, the DnB is much more center stage and the metal elements by Prince take more of a backseat as the DnB beat did in the original. This really gives it the perfect club combination: The EDM parts are center stage but the song doesn’t completely abandon the metal elements, resulting in a mix that is perfect to jump up and down to, either in the club or at home!

Nicolas Dominique – Coffee Rush | Drum & Bass
Today we return once more to Nicolas Dominique, and he brings us this jolly DnB song. Coffee Rush is an upbeat, fast DnB track that will make you dance! The track starts out at express pace with a lovely DnB melody that is quickly joined by all sorts of elements, and before you really notice it the song begins building up. After some time another synth joins in and gives the song a lovely melody. Later an additional synth joins and takes center stage for a lovely progression, and, believe it or not, the track is still building up. Still later the artist teases us with a two minute build up before the track changes and becomes calmer, seemingly finally slowing down. Most of the song’s elements subside, but then most of them gradually return, and the song speeds up again as we return once more to the fully built arrangement which persists until the outro where the track calms down once again.

Altius Volantis – Spark of Friendship | Chillout
Today we’ve got ourselves a lovely Chillout track by the amazing Altius Volantis. The song starts out with a lovely, calm melody that is soon joined by an equally relaxed synth and even more. As the song progresses most of these elements subside, and in the end the gentle melody carries us away on the night breeze. This is another song I really recommend for just lying down and putting on repeat as you just, well, chill out, as the calming beat is perfect for that. There are no big beat fireworks here, just the gentle reassurance that the spark of friendship will carry you through anything.
Thanks to thecanderson for proofreading!
SeriousDamir – The Frost | Eurobeat
Did this Hearth’s Warming Eve come up a little bit short for you? Are you determined to cling to holiday cheer until you are absolutely certain that you have nothing further to fear from Windigos? Well, then might I suggest giving this excellent holiday-themed Eurobeat tune by SeriousDamir a spin or five! The fantastic instrumental opening sets the mood with both a wonderful sleigh bell rhythm and bell melody before the synth and drums kick in and launch the song into a blast of holiday cheer. SeriousDamir intended for this song to be an uplifting affair with the message that even though life can sometimes get you down you will always have friends who will help pick you back up, and the lyrics and vocals fit that theme perfectly. There are some really nice changes throughout the song where the Eurobeat melody is carried by the bells, keys, guitar, or vibraphone, and the artist also creates a nice choir effect heading into the chorus that compliments the main vocals really well. It’s all paired with a lovely lyric video complete with falling snow animation, so pour another glass cider and remember that good friends and holiday cheer will always be there for you!
Dandelion – With Borrowed Wings | Ambient Pop
If you haven’t been listening to Dandelion, you really should! Their ability to create unique and innovative soundtracks is apparent with each and every new release. With Borrowed Wings is an extremely peaceful and gorgeous song. The theme explores a pony afterlife which is made apparent by the heavenly design and instrumentation. Helen the vocalist has an angelic voice which sings softly over a subtle, bright synth. Some dream-like bells are mixed in with light percussion to really give life to the tack. Brilliantly designed and original, make sure to check out this song and more from Dandelion’s channel!
StableTwoStallion – Maud | Industrial Metal
There’s no questions StableTwoStallion is the reigning king of the industrial sound, having released several tracks in the genre last year. Sung in German, this dark, heavy track is about the working live and personality of the titular Maud Pie. The guitars are tuned down and carry a dirty, distortion while the drum snare and kick hit hard to emphasize the powerful nature of the track.
