Derby Racers from this week’s episode was a pretty fun song to listen, and the same goes for this remix of it. Simple but fun, and reminiscent of some of the fandom’s earliest show song remixes.
Remix
SophiiVA – Nightmares (Sasha Lace Remix) [ft. GhostXb & Carret Top] | Orchestral Pop
Just over a year ago SophiiVA released her first original pony song, an awesome acoustic piece based on Do Princesses Dream of Magical Sheep? called Nightmares. This version from Sasha Lace and friends had been in the works for over a year and it’s a delight to finally see it released. It has all the makings of a pop ballad set to a full orchestra, and Sophii’s vocals are to die for; definitely one of my favourites so far this month!
Synthis – Insane (Otarine Remixes) | House
Here’s a double feature from Otarine who has taken two different remix approaches to Synthis’ track “Insane” ft. Sora. This first one takes some inspiration from the tech house style predominantly heard in the hypnotic lead loop.
This second remix additionally employs a bright, house approach with the heavy use of detuned chords pumping over a steady beat.
4EverfreeBrony – Future (What Are The Odds) [Spectra Remix] | Progressive House
Having been away from home for some time, 4EverfreeBrony is finally returning home, and to celebrate his return our very own Spectra has whisked up this catchy and polished house-y remix of one of his many classic tracks. It even has a bit of a dubstep breakdown for some added variety later on. A worthy welcome back package for sure.

Embeds and tracklist are both available after the break
Daniel Ingram – The Spectacle (Knife Pony Remix) | Electro House
Knife Pony appear to be moving on from their horse alias to something else, but they’re ending it with their aptly named ‘Finale’ album. This track is a banger of a remix of that dance tune ‘The Spectacle’ – it’s had quite a few remixes by now and this definitely stands amongst them as one of the clubbier ones.
ExplodingPonyToast, LutariFan & ThatMusicBrony – Start Again (DJT Remix) | Glitch Hop
Start Again’s had some pretty great remixes already, and DJT joins the club with a high octane glitch hop re-imagining that I absolutely adore. A remix of one of my tracks in what is quite possibly my favourite genre? Yes please!
Lycan Dese Beats – Season 2 Episode 20
As LDB brings you the latest and greatest songs of the fandom, we have “Pony Bands” in our theme this week including The Shake Ups in Ponyville, AcoustiMandoBrony, and The Wonderbolts.

Progressive Element – Legends of Equestria (MrMehster Remix) | Hard House
Having remixed Progressive Element’s track myself, I’m well acquainted with its catchy melodies that help form the foundation for this hard hitting remix from MrMehster, and I’ve got to say, he’s used them pretty well! Injecting his trademark Asian flair, reminding me somewhat of KSHMR’s style, Mehster’s remix is definitely one worth checking out. – EPT
UndreamedPanic – Dark Crystals (R3CTIFIER & StrachAttack Remix) | Electro House
Ayyy the boys are back in town B) Panic’s awesome bass house track from earlier in the year has been re-imagined through the collaborative vision of R3C and Strach who- while maintaining the same house tempo- have kept things fresh with some syncopated bass rhythms and an elaboration on the the implementation of the vocals. Check out all three artists for more great EDM!
