The Trap instrumental from Seventh Element giving much coolness to the turtle tortoise has just been reborn, with extra coolness, awesomeness and radicalness (no those are not the same thing) thanks to J. Free‘s verses. Who said Tank couldn’t be badapple? Tank you Seventh Element and J. Free for this treat!
Rap / Hip-Hop
GhostXb – Night Breeze | Hip-Hop / Chillout
We can always count on GhostXb to bring to life the most creative visions and the most blissful musical moods, and this new release is certainly another wonderful token of that talent, resulting in a very chill Hip-Hop instrumental feeling as gentle as a Night Breeze. The decrescendos near the end could remind you of the Prelude from Final Fantasy, too!

Start of DMC 4EVER UCCI’s review
And here we are with another GhostXb track! This time, he delights us with some super chill and very soothing mix of a lovely, lovely piano improv on top of a lo-fi hip hop beat swiftly matched by dancing strings all around. A really interesting and unusual way to mix genres if you ask me, and I’ll never grow tired to see these kind of experimentations come up. It’s a breath of fresh (nightly) air.

Equestrian Mental Asylum – Confession Session | Hip-Hop
Verse spitting at its finest, these blokes don’t hold back when it comes to making sure that quality rap is put out there. With fatal lyrical darkness, Confession Session ensures you won’t be left disappointed if you enjoy grim sharp edge in your music. This is a big one.
MC-Arch – Vengeance. (Finish what you started) | Hip-Hop
MC-Arch is back with a new release imbued with strong feelings and expressing much, and we can definitely feel it from the emotion it conveys. Displaying a wonderful rapping talent once again, this song is a powerful musical experience that further expands the journey. Let us cling together.
Kozmos – Rejected (Revisit) | Hip-Hop / Drumstep
A revisit of a piece I affectionate as a great tribute, this new version of Rejected is still using the original instrumental from Pony Music but with a new vocal arrangement from Kozmos and a new mastering, providing a much welcomed update and delivering even more feelings toward Trixie’s character depth.
Daniel Ingram – Best Friends Until the End of Time (GhostXb Remix) | Hip-Hop
GhostXb is on a roll, and here comes his take on the much-remixed Best Friends Until the End of Time from the S7 premiere! Featuring amazing and much welcomed vocal chops as well as blissful bass, it also gives a subtle Country flavor and overall makes for a wonderful and very unique remix of the song. Every new release from GhostXb brings awe and I’m certainly delighted with all those tasteful musical styles, conducted masterfully!
GhostXb – A Comforting Thought | Hip-Hop
Another masterpiece from GhostXb, this Hip-Hop instrumental shines with magic that only he could make. A soothing yet intriguing musical mood, blissful drums, and very emotional strings melodies, make the piece an incredible gem and token of talent and unique musical vision. Such A Comforting Thought and a blessing that we have GhostXb composing tracks like these in our community!
Blitz & Fluffalo – Dog Diamonds (Covering Rhyme Flow) | Hip-Hop
We can always count on this community’s MCs to come up with the coolest tracks, and this new take on the original concept from Rhyme Flow sure has got the badapple lyrics, rad vocals from both Blitz and Fluffalo, and a sick flow. I like to think that this is coming straight from the Diamond Dogs in Equestria, as if they formed a Hip-Hop band, and the immersion feels so good!
Sky Runner – Antagonist (Hay Tea Remix) | Hip-Hop
Reflecting the post-finale feelings of many of us, this remix of Sky Runner’s Antagonist from Hay Tea is very fitting especially considering the ever-growing expectations toward the coming season and the wishing that Chrysalis’ character depth could be focused on in the show and not only in fan works. In the meantime, this melancholic yet beautiful Hip-Hop intrumental and remix does an awesome job at emphasizing on the paradox of a villain, feeding on love yet failing to lead her beloved changelings to a right path, ending up getting unconditional love from the brony community.
Hay Tea – Downtime | Hip-Hop
To reflect the current Downtime before S7 while we still can, Hay Tea made a tasteful Hip-Hop instrumental piece of much serenity and jazzy vibes. The famous melancholia that is due to the absence of ponies and that will soon fade is represented well here along the sax melodies that seem like they are being played on a window pane in a rainy night in the city, and it is with much musical bliss that the whole track lays out and embodies Hay Tea’s talent at creating such laid-back beautiful pieces.
