GAZINGMOON – ComeOut | Witch House
We all know Fluttershy as a kind and caring character, but does she have a darker side? One of our fandom’s newest musicians, GAZINGMOON, explores this idea in their track, “ComeOut.” It’s quiet, creepy, sinister, and features extremely crunched samples of Fluttershy screaming. The arpeggiating pads and extremely tight snare add to the eerie feel–this is not the kind of house you normally hear, so make sure to check out its unique soundscape (unless you’re too scared to)!

Each one of us harbors some inner demons, and Saphire Systrine channels these emotions tangibly in this fittingly named track. Starting with a simple synthetic piano, layer on layer gets added on top of each other to create an interplay of sound that conveys feelings of inner strain and how fast they may emerge within oneself, supplemented by the abrupt change of composition towards the end. Make sure to let yourself be carried on this journey by giving this track a listen!
Pagan Pegasus – Color Bass Dishwasher [Epic Wub Time Remixed] | Color Bass
Are you holding out for remixes of 2012 classics? Well, here’s one that you probably weren’t expecting! Epic Wub Time: Musicians of Ponyville by Alligator Tub Productions has gotten a facelift with Pagan Pegasus reusing its dialogue and visuals over an all new color bass track! This new banger really fuses together elements from both classical and EDM traditions–the track opens with strings carrying the track before it transitions into its epic kick, snare, and bass of course! Towards the end, it also bumps up the intensity by moving from its duple beat into triplets, making it feel even faster before. Make sure to put this one on full blast and let us know if it actually cleans your dishes.
Frozen Night – Scarlet Rain’s Elegy | Symphonic Metal
Thrack – Never Give Up (Feat. CantoAcrylic & Tall Pine) | Folk
Thrack has teamed up with Canto and Tall Pine to make a warm and hopeful track set in the Fallout Equestria universe. It opens with Pine going ham on a sick mandolin riff before Canto and Thrack take turns singing inspiring lyrics about never “give[ing] up the fight” even if it costs them everything. Towards the end, their voices join together briefly to modulate to a different key, and it’s absolutely heavenly. The instrumentation is also incredibly lush with guitar, banjo, mandolin, and even some glockenspiel. All together, this song’s sure to help you smile even through the darkest of times.
Abdul Hakiim – Babs Seed (covering Daniel Ingram) | Metal
Are you ready to cope with childhood bullying by screaming about it? Then look no further than Abdul Hakiim’s cover of Babs Seed from Season 3 of Friendship is Magic. The song alternates from soft, male vocals over mellow guitar lines to disgruntled screams over heavy drums and shredding, sometimes back to back between stanzas! The stylistic contrast is incredible, and it’s paired with the original visuals distorted to hammer home that vibe. It’s a must listen for MLP metal fans.
Daniel Ingram – The Pony I Want To Be (Electrokaplosion Remix) | House
ElectroKaplosion brings us some heartfelt vibes with this remix of Daniel Ingram’s “The Pony I want to Be.” Its addictively simple, but highly danceable synths form the backbone of the track while keeping the slower tempo of the original, giving it a subdued yet energetic feel. Kapolosion cleverly uses a lowered version of Diamond Tiara’s voice for background vocals, adding so much depth and character. You’ll definitely be waving your hooves for this one when you hear it!
PumpkinZ – Twilight | Neurohop
PumpkinZ’s “Twilight” is a really interesting electronic track which fuses many different genres and styles. It opens with lush electronic piano balanced with a harsher plucked synth before rolling into an attention grabbing bass line seductively modulating between pitches over a lo-fi like groove. The middle section offers something completely different with its reverb-washed strings and flute before returning to its earlier section. Overall, it’s relaxing while simultaneously demanding your attention, making for a unique experience.
