The closing song (and one of my favourites) from his album Lost in a Pastel Hue, this song also features on Opalescence. I have to admit, I didn’t realise the meaning behind the lyrics until this video was released. Just goes to show effective subtlety is when writing music about colourful pastel horses.

Horse Friends – Opalescence | Charity album to support TheLostNarrator released
Hey everyone. So, remember the announcement about that charity album we made a couple of days ago? Well it’s been finished and released! More details are on the Bandcamp page but basically, any funds needed to help TheLostNarrator will go to her surgery and medical fees, and anything raised past the $1,500 threshold will be given to a charity of her choice.
PrinceWhateverer – Not Letting Go (Francis Vace Cover) | Ska
Francis Vace has been on a binge of covering prominent songs from the earlier days of the fandom, and continuing that trend he brings us an upbeat ska cover of one of PrinceWhateverer’s track from early January, Not Letting Go. Unsurprisingly, it works great!
Rockin’Brony – Equestrian Idiot (Green Day Parody) | Punk Rock
Rockin’Brony remade his ponification of Green Day’s American Idiot that he originally released back in December 2014. (Another remake of a ponification, in such a short time after Mason al’Cat released his, such a coincidence!) Some major improvements in this version, in which we can experience a cleaner sound and sweet guitar play, and Rockin’s very Green Day-ish vocals that definitely pay much tribute to that song… the pony way!
Mason al’Cat – Luna My Sweet Sister (John Denver Parody) | Folk Rock
Master of Classic Rock ponifications Mason al’Cat strikes once again with a remake of his pony take on John Denver’s My Sweet Lady that he originally made back in 2012. Partake in good old Folk Rock bliss as a mighty tribute to Luna unfolds, told through Celestia’s feelings!
Ponysphere & Secret Metal – Harmony’s Call | Metal
I’m constantly impressed by this fandom’s metal scene. While I’m not strongly involved in it myself, I dabble every now and again and always find myself headbanging to something along the way. This awesome collab from Ponysphere and Secret Metal is no exception, go check it out! \m/
Francis Vace – Entropy | Punk
A bonus track on his recent EP of covers, Souvenirs, Francis originally covered this AwkwardMarina song a couple of years ago. This is a rework of that version, involving some re-recording and some re-mastering, and is one of my favourites from the EP.
Reverbrony – Red Fire (feat. BriLizy T) | Atmospheric Power Metal
Reverbrony comes in full force along with new talent BriLizy T to bring us Red Fire, a song of definitely much originality, with such an interesting genre and theme. Let yourself fall under the spell of Reverbrony’s melodies and riffs, and BriLizy’s beautiful yet powerful vocals… as the character of the story falls under the “spell” of Celestia!
Dr. Somepony – What my eyes can’t see | Prog Metal
Here’s five minutes of some fantastic instrumental metal from Dr. Somepony. Inspired by a dream about Derpy Hooves, the track is propelled forward over exciting drums through a tasteful variety of style, pacing, and direction. This sets the stage for a great exhibition of impressive guitar work, so if you’re looking for some quality metal be sure to give this a listen.
Evdog – The Artist | Ballad
Here’s the last of the tracks that Evdog has be remastering. A piano ballad stylized with some modern vocal chopping flair, this track explores the pressures that can often weigh on the minds of creatives.
