It’s Top 10 time again! As always there’s a great mix of fan-picked faves from last month from both longstanding brony musicians and I spy a(n almost) brand new one in there too! Check it out to see who placed on the roster.
Audios
Cyril the Wolf – Millennium Alone (feat. Drummershy) [2023 Version] | Rock
Cyril the Wolf decided to make an updated version of what I believe is his first pony song ever, Millennium Alone, original made in 2011. The track begins with the beautiful playing of acoustic guitar, with the strings melting in, continuing to build with the addition of electric guitars before bursting into a full rock arrangement! The lyrics are Luna-centric with beautiful turns of phrase like “moving tides as she wept”, and Cyril’s vocal performance is phenomenal, flowing smoothly in and out of falsetto, showing off an incredible range. Absolutely splendid!
Blurain – Overthrown (Continuation) | Alternative / Metal
You ever just need a 4-chord banger in drop C# tuning? Blu’s got you covered! He’s been pumping out song after song lately and this one takes a turn towards the heavier side with the occasional djenty bit and harsh vocals. Plus it’s a Thorax song – not the most common character to reference so it’s a nice rare gem in that sense!
Nexgen & Namii – LESSONS//LEARNED | Hip-Hop / Rap
Not only are we treated to the popstar ever herself on this song, but she’s brought a couple of old-school players back into the game. Nexgen duets with Namii, dropping bars about the weight of Twilight’s immortality and the pain of outliving loved ones, and the beat was produced by Vinyl.rawr! Go check out this joint effort of some longstanding icons of the brony music scene!
JayB vs. Fluttershy – I Love Everything (Nicolas Dominique Remix) | Trance
After seeing that his original remix has already been some time ago Nicolas Dominique decided to redo his remix and now presents us with this amazing new version. The track is packed with trance fire from front to back and Fluttershy vocals are always a joy!
EveryDayDashie – Roadtrip to the Maretime Bay | Folk / Country
As a little entry to the month of May, EveryDayDashie has composed this lovely piece, bringing the calm and relaxing energy and lots of Violin power from Dashie himself! This track feels like a lovely breeze, running across your face. I definitely recommend having a good listen, especially while travelling through endless fields of green!
Koron Korak – Keys of the Past | Piano Orchestral
Today Koron Korak brings us this lovely yet somber piece, meant as a tribute and to show how much family and friends can help through sadness. This track shines with its mournful strings and deep piano melody, the whole thing bringing across this deep sadness. I definitely recommend listening to this but have some tissues on hand.
Jyc Row – Eternal Night’s Utopy | Orchestral
As part of his series of Trailer pieces, Jyc Row brings us this amazing orchestral piece focused around a movie with Nightmare Moon at its center! This track shines with its hard hitting combination of drums and a little bit of vocals, strings actually taking a back seat in a big portion of the track as other elements shine!
Japkozjad – The Emotional Voyage | Synthpop
Today Japkozjad brings us another amazing track, this time we’re going into synthpop! Despite the more dark title and artwork, this track is rather cheery, delivering happiness right to your doorstep with it’s lovely vocal chops, upbeat melodies and rhythmic drums, defintiely give this track a listen and enjoy for yourself!
Direct Current – Intercepting Threads | Chillout
As part of his universe of Star Chaser albums, Direct Current brings us this gorgeous chillout tune, featuring cheery and upbeat melodies and a punchy drum to dictate the beat the instrumental alone is wonderful, but put on the lovely vocals and this track is truly one to behold! Definitely have a listen to this one and I promise you’ll be putting it on repeat!
