Namii done a cute! This song still holds a firm place in my heart and the hearts of so many others, and it’s really interesting to hear a slower, more stripped-back version of the song in a softer tone.
Pop
Vylet Pony – Destiny Station | Hip-Hop
👏 VYLET’S 👏 GOT 👏 A 👏 NEW 👏 ALBUM 👏 and this is one of the first songs released from it. The album “is a story about two witch ponies in somewhat of an alternate Universe from the canon MLP storyline”. Stylistically speaking, it seems to be a culmination of sorts of the Indie Pop and Lo-Fi paths that Vylet’s been moving along these past few months. So pretty much cute, chill, and extremely pleasant to listen to. Check out Destiny Station and if you like it, try out the whole album too!
Sonic Rainboom – Honeycrisp (feat. Faux Synder) | Electro-Pop
Building off of the relationship established between Big Macintosh and Sugar Belle, Sonic Rainboom teams up with Faux Synder to tell the baker mare’s side of the story. Sarcastic in tone, Faux Synder delivers sings with the kind of sass that would develop when dealing with Big Mac’s obliviousness and runaround, while Sonic Rainboom supplies a very unique style and beat in this underground pop track. Easy to groove with, and fun in all the right ways, Honeycrisp is a one-of-a-kind track!
Crusader! – Like Pinkie Pie | Dance-Rock
Take a trip back to the 90s with this catchy tribute to the top party pony! Like Pinkie Pie starts with a contagious electric guitar riff and turns into a bumpin’ hybrid pop-rock-dance track complete with a synth-dubstep break and chops of Ponk herself. It’s tough not to get absorbed into this song as Crusader! describes the ultimate party scene with his vocals, reminding us that no one parties like Pinkie Pie!
Rusty – Imposter Syndrome | Electro Swing
Rusty is at it again! This song tells us about his realization of developing what is known as “Imposter Syndrome”; which is where you feel that anything good in your life, whether it be your actions or things you just find good in general, are all due to manipulation, luck, or someone else’s work. Rusty does a great job at telling this tale with infectious and emotional vocal work, that I don’t hear very often and there are plenty of developments through out to keep you coming back for more. Electro Swing is hard to do right. The melody and groove in this gives off such a great vibe and the creative ways that Rusty went about producing this, is just incredible! You do not want to pass this one up!
Vylet Pony – Hold on Before I Forget | Indie Pop
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 12 March 2018.
Vylet’s gentle works from his Tales From Equestria album continue, and this one has a pretty strong focus on his vocals. They come across pretty emotional and sultry here, with some great use of reverb in the instrumental to add some heavy feeling to it. The backing vocals also add another layer of depth.
[P@D] ThatMusicBrony – Let Me Love You | Electropop
One of the best tracks coming from the recent P@D album Rebirth, ThatMusicBrony delight us with some twenty one pilots kinda feeling track with some really cute and romantic lyrics! The instrumental is simply divine, a true treat with amazing synth work and the drums are really well performed. Meanwhile we have the amazing vocals, with TMB’s amazing voice singing his well-written lyrics! Really a treat for Electropop fans, if you are into twenty one pilots, I really suggest give this a listens!
Download Rebirth on bandcamp (you know, that promotional paragraph that I shouldn’t do but I do anyways because the album was awesome and you should grab it) and if you are rich buy it to support the amazing artists!
[P@D] Crusader! – Home is Where Your Friends Are | Pop Rock
This treasure of a track written for the new Ponies at Dawn album is a showcase of Crusader!’s talent and expertise in multiple styles of rock music. Perfectly capturing the theme of MLP, Home is Where Your Friends Are describes how those closest to us are what brings us out of our troubles and hard times. Starting out soft and only acoustic, the track builds through a synth-infused poppy bridge that leads into an uptempo, punky section interchanging seamlessly to convey the energy that our friends truly bring to us. Emotional, uplifting, and well-crafted, Crusader! offers a one-of-a-kind track that everyone can enjoy!
Equestria Electric Symphony Orchestra – Love Is In Our Cutie Marks (Can You Feel The Love Tonight) | Pop Ballad
Taking inspiration from his two biggest inspirations, Equestria Electric Symphony Orchestra combines the music from the Lion King and gives it a loving, pony twist. You can really feel the passion in this recomposed piece, as EESO’s singing pays tribute to the timeless caring in the friendship of the show. It doesn’t take long listening to Love Is In Our Cutie Marks to be a at least a little bit touched by the emotion in the track!
BroniKoni – Friendship Express | Pop Rock
An amazing track, full of happiness and good feelings! BroniKoni releases their debut album Friendship Express and by celebrating that, they release the title track from it! The mix of instruments is amazing, the pianos, the guitars, the flutes, the vocals, the basses! Then that guitar solo melts my heart, and the chorus is really funny and cute! Buy Friendship Express at BroniKoni’s bandcamp! Keep up the good work everyone, you did an awesome job!
