Frozen Night – Terra Nova’s Aria (voc. Kjellska, vln. Hannah K. Watson) | Symphonic Metal

Wow… what a track! Frozen Night once again, delivers pure majesty through music! And this time, we are blessed with symphonic metal INCLUDING KIRINS! Backed up by Hannah K. Watson’s phenomenal violin playing, and Kjellska’s stunning vocal work, the story of Terra Nova is told! This piece will rush through you similar to a Kirin’s fury, and yet it is so calm & soothing with wonderful orchestral elements. The contrast of peace and intensity meet each other in the middle here perfectly and YOU BET something beautiful has come out of that!

Luck Rock – What’s Going On Luster Dawn (feat. ProtoShadez) [prod. MelodyBrony] | Pop-Punk

Yeah, seriously! like, legit! What’s going on with this reverse Fluttershy as a unicorn type of h o n s e?

What does she think of Pineapples on Pizza? How can she eat so much Mayo-BING BONG!-and still remain so thin? Why am I still not getting my salary from her? SO MANY QUESTIONS! You bet I was really glad Luck, Shadez, and Melody brought this to the public’s attention through this extremely joyful and funny song! Three wonderfully talented lads putting their grand workways together to solve this mystery… I adore it! I believe in it though, that one day we’ll see her again! I’d love to say more, but unfortunately, I have to cut this article short because I believe the IRS just broke through my door right now for forwarding this great question to the public, I hope they don’t smash my head on the desktop for iTTEt4 dfghdfgh5 43[08

rawrity – starting over | indie

Well, rawrity DEFINITLY proves their name true! The RAW emotion I get from this track, WOW! Let alone, how the pony samples from the show harmonize and compliment with BOTH the song, and the message of the show, it’s absolutely incredible! And so is the way of starting over with something… I know exactly what raw talks about here. Life truly is a Rollercoaster… but y’know what? It’s beautiful to share the ride with so many people… I wish raw the best with their mental health journey. I’m glad you’re here with us! I would also personally encourage MORE bronies to spread & accept the message; it IS ok to care about mental health and encourage others to talk about it!

Namii – The Twilight Will Rise (covering Turquoise Splash) | Soft Rock

Oohohooo~ The local popstar returns to us with another cover! And rise? Namii absolutely does with this cover of “The Twilight Will Rise”. I want to express how incredibly talented and versatile Namii is… They can go literally EVERY direction with their vocals! I think everything about this cover is perfect. It’s smooth, epic, and just pulls you in! I am really glad to see a classic brought forward once again with such power and determination. Truly like Twilights character I’d say. Phenomenal work Namii!

limbosystem – Dizzy, Starry Eyes | Indie Rock

Ah, nice lovely rock vibes from the homie limbosystem bringing us the track Dizzy, Starry Eyes. It’s the perfect title for a track like this because you wouldn’t pass an opportunity to stargaze, right? Those moments are truly beautiful. Aren’t they? I really enjoy the Beatles / Pink Floyd vibes this track gives us! The universe has always been a very interesting concept to mankind, and since music is what feelings sound like, isn’t it just beautiful to express that curiosity and beauty through Music?

4everfreebrony – The Wings You Earned (covering Tarby) | Prog Rock

There’s an awful lot of history behind this song, having gone from a JackleApp demo (from 10 years ago!) to a Tarby demo to this polished release from 4everfreebrony! The magic in the simplicity of the original composition is only amplified by this arrangement as it draws out the feeling of yearning in its lyrics. Like in so many of his recent covers, 4EFB has breathed new life into an older fandom song and made something special.

PrinceWhateverer & MelodyBrony – The Wonderbolt and the Thief (Stereophonics ponified) | Alt. Rock

More like Stereoponics, am I rig- oh they did that in the video…

Turn-of-the-century Britrock + ponies? Yes please! This pony parody of The Bartender and the Thief does a really good job of recreating the sound of the original Sterophonics song. Prince did the vocals on this one and Melody all the instruments, so you know you’re bound to get something that sounds great.
