Hydra is back with a much welcomed Trance / House hybrid, and it certainly delights with a spacey feel, wonderful melodic background synths, an entrancing rythm, and many wonders taking us to the Stratosphere! Music and ponies are unlimited!
Trance
Ryazan – Lunamoon | Hard Trance
Woop woop, more music from the newly founded A State of Sugar label! This one is actually more of a throwback, since the song was originally released on the Ponies At Dawn album Celestial Planes back in 2015, but we thought it would be appropriate to post since this site doesn’t date back that far. So yeah, TRANCE TIME!
Luna – My Love | Uplifting Trance
MOAR TRANCE! I need it! Luna is one of the few producers who consistently makes trance in this fandom, and I’m so glad they keep putting out songs like this. Take a listen for classic echoey pianos and bright synths.
Various Artists – JapanPonyParty! Vol.3 | Album | Multi-Genre
We completely missed this when it first released back in May, but thanks to someone sending it in to us, we’re able to share it with you today! This compilation album featuring artists from the Japanese fandom scene was released at Japan Ponycon in May earlier this year. It features some names you might recognise (e.g. Oodoratoo2, delfino), but also has a wide variety of other artists you may never have heard of, and a huge range of genres too! The above video contains previews of each track, and the album itself can be downloaded from JPP’s website for free!
eksoka – Lachryphagy | Trance
If you’re looking for a lengthy, melodic tune, eksoka has you covered. The composition is primarily delivered through piano chords and synth arpeggios though there are some cool fills that dance around in the stereo image.
FruityFusion – Undreamed | Trance
Always one to switch up the style, Fruity has released a new tune for all the fans of trance out there. Arpeggiated chords carry the song forward through atmospheric breakouts and a steady beat.
fractilx – luvstruck -timebond- (feat. gmIX-k) | Trance House
Next to Burstin’ Sun, this second contribution to the tribute album toward King Mars from Fractilx takes on a community favorite by paying tribute to the Derpy x Dr. Hooves ship in a musical way. The tender atmosphere definitely conveys the love very well, as the science/tech-y synths and melodies and the occasional bells remind of Dr. Hooves’ character as depicted in the fateful episode 100 or inside the community for ages! A bond that will last forever and that will never be broken, and including a time-traveling pony, that’s what a timebond is!
Daniel Ingram – The Spectacle (Sonic Rainboom Remix) | Psytrance
Yet another remix of the The Spectacle, but also yet another different direction in which it has been taken. Check out Sonic Rainboom’s remix which puts an 8-minute psytrance spin on it, now with beat swing changes!
[KM] Nicolas Dominique – Forward | Trance
Another track off the King Mars tribute album, Nicolas presents a very cool, progressive composition which draws from a number of stylistic influences. The track is driven by a steady trance kick which carries the listener forward through an evolving series of atmospheres.
Thorinair – Hypersonic (Sonic Rainboom Remix) | Trance
I get excited every time I find a new trance song in my subscription box – it’s an uncommon genre not just among the fandom music scene but seemingly the electronic music scene in general nowadays. This remix of Thorinair’s classic Hypersonic takes me back to the late 00s when a friend introduced me to a lot of trance that stuck with me for years afterwards. Grab a seat and take a listen for a euphoric musical journey.
