Violight – Becoming Popular (covering Daniel Ingram & Kazumi Evans) | Pop
We probably don’t feature enough purely vocal covers, so this is a nice welcome addition to our usual features. Violight’s cover of Rarity’s solo song Becoming Popular is delightful with a bit of a softer touch than the original. She even handles the harmony line fabulously!
DAY21 – feel (Feat. Rawrity) | Pop / Electronica
Jeff Burgess & Sole Screwdriver – Birds of Paradise | Pop Rock
It’s always great hearing a new track by Jeff Burgess, especially one that is his first original track in about a year, and one of a few new pony-related tracks released in the past half decade or so. Joined by his friend, Sole Screwdriver, “Birds of Paradise” is a very airy & easy to listen to track with a light, yet energetic acoustic guitar leading the instrumentation. Jeff’s vocals are the cherry on top, showcasing that same amazing talent that creates that signature emotion behind all of his music. We’re going to be missing you for the next four years, Jeff. Hope all goes well with the Air Force. We can’t wait to hear what amazing music you’ll create when you’re back!
rawrity – ready or not! | pop
rawrity’s feel good pop tunes just keep on coming! ready or not has a sound with a sort of unique blend of indie and electronica, that somehow feels both new and nostalgic at the same time. Take a listen and marvel with her at the prettiest purple princess idol!
Evershade – A Thousand Likes (feat. Namii) | Pop
Pop Girl Summer isn’t over yet, so there’s still time to enjoy this upbeat bop from a power pop duo! Evershade’s fun and breezy approach to pop music is a great match for Namii’s guest vocals on this song about being the most glamorous pony at the poolside. Grab a drink, take a listen and imagine yourself living the high life with Pipp Petals.
Vylet Pony – i don’t know how to tell you that you’re my best friend (and that i love you) | Pop
Vylet knocks it out once again with a very emotional mouthful of a song! Opening with a myriad of stellar stereo cacophony and heartwarming vocals the stage is not only set as something great it gets raised even higher with the ever changing energy and vibe this song plays out in what feels like different acts that grab your attention and refuse to let go! ‘tell you’, in short; A truly wonderful piece that goes by in a flash but leaves a lasting impression.
ElectroKaplosion – Little Mare Story (Love Yourself) | Reggae / Acoustic
Today I’m happy to present you with this gem of a tune! Featuring not too many instruments ElectroKaplosion brings us this fun reggae tune with a uniquely comforting nature. The track is one big, uplifting poem all about self love and how appreciated everyone is, even if it doesn’t feel like it sometimes.
Luck Rock – More Pinkie Pie | Showtunes / Pop
Luck Rock’s latest track resurfaces an older demo originally written back in 2018. “More Pinkie Pie” is a fun song based on “Too Many Pinkie Pies” from season 3. It features very smooth, glass-like synths and piano reminiscent of the mirror pool. The lyrics play on the episode’s plot, mentioning the doublings with its numeric chorus, but also the more sinister side of “counting the bodies” as her friends try to find the real Pinkie. Hopefully they find the right one.
BURNING DOWN BRIDLEWOOD – LVNDBVCK | Pop Punk
cw: explicit lyrics
Burning Down Bridlewood, a band featuring the talent of rawrity, debuts with a banger, “LVNDBVCK”. The title is a play on “LAND BACK”, and the song’s edgy lyrics are about taking back land which was unfairly redistributed sometime between the G4 and G5 eras. The track buzzes with the pop punk energy of guitars, the crisp click of drumsticks, and the classic pony chops you’ve grown to love in rawrity’s songs. The vocals straddle near hyperpop territory, giving the song even more energy and creating a really cool texture. Nice work!
