Combining post-hardcore, metal, trance, and drum & bass all into one song, Segments of Life has left me confused what to call this track other than an awesome piece of work! Have this full-on song to start off the day.

Allergy advice: contains large amounts of WoodenToaster.
StringStorm - Luna’s Future (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Symphonic Metal
Undeniably a song that made much impact in S6, Luna’s Future ever continues to inspire, as the magic from its unique approach and union of talents is still powerful as ever. StringStorm aka Arkane provides here a much welcome Symphonic Metal rendition of it, sublimating Aloma Steele‘s vocals once again and paying much tribute to that fateful musical event from A Hearth’s Warming Tale. Also by the way, if you’re a pony musician and want to collab with Aloma, show her your love and interest! That would be a dream coming true!
Soul Strings – Tower of Endlessness | Metal
Soul Strings is back with nothing less than I expected. A melodic death metal ballad, telling an original fantasy story with dark magic and super fast double kick pedals! Keep it heavy Soul \m/
StealingShad3Z – Keep Fighting | Soft Rock
Back in one the the styles he usually frequents again, StealingShad3Z has a new songs about the inner torment of Luna and her internal struggle against Nightmare Moon. Some rather dark and depressing lyrics, as you might expect from this sort of topic, and the haunting clean guitars only further bring a melancholic mood to this song, great work composing it to fit the theme!

Segments of Life – Can’t Let Go | Trancecore
Segments of Life’s unique blend of hardcore, trance and hard rock strikes again in this new song, “Can’t Let Go”. This one incorporates plenty of house elements too, further confusing me on how to place this into our database >.> But seriously, nice job SoL!
Reverbrony – To Kiss The Skies | Progressive Ambient Rock
With a title somewhat evoking Trivium-ish Heavy Metal songs to me, this piece is surprisingly of the softests, with Reverbrony’s magic for creating unique, beautiful, and concept-centered tracks shining bright once again. Angelic piano melodies followed by gentle yet meaningful and powerful guitar play guide us along Fluttershy’s steps, encompassing the poetry from the cover art in a brand new way, perhaps reflecting the story of our favorite Nature-loving pegasus. A work of art in more ways than one!
StealingShad3Z – Do What You Daring Do | Hardcore / Metal
Something from Shady that’s rather different to his usual content. Deviating a bit from the alt. rock ballads that fill his channel this time he’s made an instrumental hardcore/metal type song about Daring Do.
Stallionslaughter – Sweepcore | Deathcore
As much addicted to “sweep dance remixes” as I am, I’ve still got to say, EDM remixes are great and all, but… what about rock music? Admitedly beyond my wildest expectations, here comes Sweepcore, a beautiful Deathcore rendition of the madness that Twilight’s remix has created in the community, breaking the barriers of the socially adequate, and shouting loud and proud about the fun of sweeping in the purest spirit of rock. Unconditionally a masterpiece for its dare and raw power, Sweepcore may not be the definite promise of a new musical genre but is certainly a much welcomed addition to the post-episode afterparty, and sure to be played in many Equestrian back-alley underground gig halls.
