Another banger from the latest Horse Music Central album, this track sees Totalspark, who dabbles in all kinds of electronica, join forces with Zero Chaotic, who originally came up with the basis for this track. The song flows instantly and seamlessly between dark, orchestrated parts and heavy drumstep breakdowns with full force.
Audios
Suskii – Top Bug (Einarx Remix) | Dubstep
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 31 March 2018.
Suskii’s recently released EP was headlined by Top Bug, a killer dubstep track that’s also gotten a remix from Einarx. It’s cool to see a different take on the original, as Einarx brings his heavy and varied sound design to the table with some excellent arrangement throughout the drops.
Reverbrony – Heaven’s Eclipse (Remastered) | Metal
It’s been a little while, but we should all be excited because Reverbrony is back with some high quality remastered tracks! Heaven’s Eclipse is a heavy instrumental track depicting the power and might of the sun’s greatest enemy – Nightmare Moon! The drums are powerful and drive the fast tempo with insane double-pedal kicks. The angelic choir chanting behind the metal guitar adds a dimension of epicness and divinity to the powerful track. There’s even an interlude featuring a church organ to round out the theme of the track and keep you on your toes! All-in-all, Reverbrony makes a huge splash in his newest track!
VecodeX – Poison Apple II | Bounce / Deep House
noise.horse has been one of the greatest sources of the experimental music side of the fandom. Names like One Track Mind, Kakofonous A. Dischord, Drixale, r_chase and many others have contributed a lot to this label! But now is time for another artist to shine, yeah! I’m talking about VecodeX! This artist have been creating some really experimental house/bounce tracks! And this track shows how experimental is gets! Mixing two genres that normally are the opposite of each other, the groove and chillness of the Deep House mixed with the wildness and wubbyness of Bounce (a subgenre of Electro House). The wubs were on point and the synth work is also amazing! Really a treat! Listen to this on a high volume and start dancing. Good job VecodeX! Hope we can listen more things from you!
The Shake Ups – I’m the Draconequus | Rock Ballad
The Shake-Ups are still going strong with their latest song, I’m the Draconequus. This track is a nod to the Beatles’ hit “I Am the Walrus” and depicts the master of chaos as he is now. Featuring excellent acoustic guitar work throughout, I’m the Draconequus is a mellow rock track, but not without group vocals and an accompanying violin that add the necessary chaos into the song.If you like some southern rock, country pop, or just some general chaos, then make sure to click on this video!
Ataraxia – Elixir | Piano
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 28 March 2018.
Ataraxia’s piano music continues to be as beautiful as always. The reverb and sustain on the notes helps to add to their weight, as they weave a wonderful atmosphere. The composition of every note feels very deliberate, and it all works terrifically well.
Nicolas Dominique – Friendly Monsters and Fascinating Places EP | Chillout
Nicolas is a master of the chillout and ambient genres, music that just puts you into a trance throughout the entire thing. And now he’s compiled an entire EP of songs fitting that bill, all themed around the idea of exploring weird and wonderful parts of Equestria…or an alternate version of it…where cheese rolls down hills and unicorns swim through lakes with pillows on their heads. Perhaps it’s best not to think about it too hard…
Friendly Monsters and Fascinating Places is available to download for free on Nicolas’ Bandcamp.
[P@D] Seapony Olympic Committee – Underwater Basket Weaving Bowl | Synthwave / Synthpop
Coming from Rebirth, Francis Vace and PegasYs join to make an amazing track for the pleasure of our ears! A Synthwave track with Synthpop influences that left me speechless! The instrumental with that smooth synths and with the funny high-snare made my day! Also the robotic vocals of PegasYs were on point! Even if I couldn’t understand the meaning of the song, this will surely take you to places that you never walked through! Maybe to the depths of a lake or an ocean! Normally Synthwave makes your imagination flourish! So listen to it!
Ah! Don’t forget to download Rebirth at Ponies At Dawn’s bandcamp and if you are rich buy the album for support amazing artists! What you are waiting for? What can go wrong? It’s not like that the world will end if you click on the download button!
[P@D] fractilx – Requiem | Hard Trance
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 30 March 2018.
fractilx is back after a while since their last stuff, and it’s a welcome return with an energetic and smooth trance tune that has some great production throughout. A nice combination of pad and piano-based breaks with heavy hard trance synths makes for a nicely structured track.
Osoch – Friendship Always Wins (covering Daniel Ingram) | Metal
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 29 March 2018.
It’s that time again, where new songs from the show mean some musicians giving their own unique takes on them! Osoch has already managed to put together a few great metal show covers, so it’s no surprise to see this one from him. It makes good use of the vocals from the original, with some heavy guitar and percussion adding some nice energy.
