Sky Runner – Heartstrings (Filly in the Box Remix) | Neurofunk

NB: This was originally posted on Equesria Daily on December 12 2016.

Filly in the Box is back with a new remix of Sky Runner’s recent drum & bass track Heartstrings, after Sky Runner recently remixed one of FITB’s tunes. Starting off with a cool tape effect on the original before coming into some new stuff, Filly has dialed up the sound design by taking the original and adding his own signature neuro spin. I especially like those wobbly synths used in the second drop. Make sure to check it out!

StrachAttack – Black Magic VIP (feat. NekoWolf) (Rebuck) | Trap

Here it is, ponies!! The brand new rebuck of the VIP of Black Magic (that had already got a Trap Redux), premiered during StrachAttack’s Ciderfest 2016 Performance! (I recommend that mix by the way) As party-material as ever, this rebuck acts as a concentrate of what makes the tune so awesome, with its amazing melodies, heavy bass, delightful Trap elements conducted in StrachAttack’s purest signature sound, and dank additions. Truly to become an all-time classic, it celebrates StrachAttack’s perfect streak of awesome releases both production-wise and mix-wise. Speaking of mixes, I highly recommend his TrotCon 2016 mix, that I grown very addicted to.

Brohoof Studios – Fire (feat. Glitchling) (syzygy. Remix) | Trapstep

You all have heard it at the Cider Party, this banger remix from Syzygy is lit, there’s no denying it. Featuring Glitchling‘s awesome rap vocals from the original track over at Brohoof Studios, the remix blows us away with massive Dubstep drops and an incredible sound design, and manages to perfectly blend in Trap sections for a hard-hitting result of multiple facets. Show the artists some love over in the comments or in the official Cider Party Discord server!

NeverLastStanding – Tantalize | Drumstep

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 18 November 2016.

NeverLastStanding returns with an incredibly varied and high quality piece! Initially starting off as an electro banger quite similar to his last release, the second drop is a lot more trap-like in style, whilst the third and final one breaks out into drum & bass. The last part is definitely my favourite, and the liberal use of Starlight Glimmer vocal chops is a great addition. This track is also available as part of Shika No Mori Sound’s new compilation album Forest Fires, so check that out if you want more compilation album stuff!

Filly in the Box – Reformed | Neurofunk

Definitely one of my favorites from the amazing Filly in the Box, Reformed not only takes on a very cool theme as Starlight’s villainous side resurfaces, but it also impresses with a sick Neurofunk instrumental that feels like Filly’s unique sound, breaking down the standards and bringing all the delightful dark vibes and amazing twisted melodies. I like all versions of Starlight, but this Reformed(?) one is the coolest!

You can find the album on bandcamp for free or donation here!

Totalspark – Pillars | Trap

It’s nice to hear a refreshingly new take on trap. Rather than the standard minimal sounding drop, Totalspark’s gone for something with an Eastern melodic influence and big sounding leads. A very nicely done song, and good for Sparky for taking on various genres with his own style!

Filly In The Box – Manehattan Nights | Neurofunk

Filly in the Box’s streak of awesome tunes continues, as a track themed around Manehattan’s nightlife appears. Enthralling and appealing just like a dark back alley in Manehattan leading to an underground live bar would, the track provides a dark yet blissful experience among the sick wubs, the amazing melodies, the intriguing genre, and the mysterious vibe surrounding it, drawing us to a beautiful unknown.
