A huge fan of Baroque music myself, I was instantly hooked by that familiar sounding, yet original harpsichord intro! Mane in Green is no stranger to the genre as he presents some very well written baroque style melodies and chord progressions. The electronic drums and sub base give this a modern spin, and only gets better as the flute is introduced taking over the motif. Then things get really exciting as the tempo picks up and we get some Bach-esque keyboard performances. Stuffed with musical ideas from beginning to end, no fan of classical music will get bored of this one!

Lunar Drift – Changeling Reform | Electronic/Orchestral
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 28 March 2017.
Lunar Drift has been releasing music for about a year now, and they’ve steadily shown improvement over time. Whilst this piece is a little rough around the edges in places, the main focus is on the melodic elements which work wonderfully. There are some great melodies played out by the plucky synths, and the percussion keeps the energy moving along pretty well. All the while some nice string sounds help to fill in the background appreciably. There’s also a nice piano section towards the end, so check it out if that sounds like fun!
Robbie Rotten – Discord (but he’s Number One) | Memestep
It’s over. This video wins. Exactly what it has won though has yet to be determined. Shout out to Squeaky Belle for making this incredible video.
I hope you enjoyed our idea of an April Fools joke, normal service resumes tomorrow.
NIGHTCORE – Discord [1 hour] | nitekør
Okay so, fellow horse men, we’re all sick and tired of people saying that the pony music scene is nothing Winter Wrap-Up remixes and Discord, right? Yes, yes, I’m sure.
This is why I proudly present to you a rebuttal for all such claims you may come across in the future. Since we all know that how good a song is is directly proportionate to how fast it is, this is LITERALLY SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL.
If you’re not convinced already, here’s some samples of what the world’s most renowned and knowledgeable critics think of this masterpiece:
when I read discord I thought diacored from my little pony lol 😂😂 anyone with me???
I like the backround picture .3. is that weird? Im like creepy stuff like dat :3
MrDeLoop – Discord | Kinetic Typography
I think it’s amazing that MrDeLoop, perhaps best known for his various pony videos, has managed to make such successful endeavours into the music scene. Not only has he got a b r a n d n e w typography video for us, but he wrote the music to it himself too! Wow! Bazinga! [Interjection]!
The Living Tombstone – Discord | Moombahcore
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, this remix song is sooooo good. I love the melody in here & the drums are so punchy. The way the vocals are used are fantastic & make me feel good when “discord’ comes. INOESFNSEOINONOIGE. BUT WHEN THE VOCAL CHOP BITS COME, I LOVE THAT A LOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. It’s really iconic & then the backing kind of pluck thing the best part is THE MAIN MELODY. A reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly cool remix that is
iawonoiawhdoiwa ahhhhhh
Eurobeat Brony – Discord | Eurobeat
One of the freshest horse tunes I’ve heard in a while, talented producer Eurobeat Brony brings us what is sure to end up being a rousing success for him. An awesome combination of catchy melodies, excellent vocals and super cool eurobeat sound design, this piece promises to entertain fans for years to come. Who knows, maybe we’ll even get some highly innovative and clever remixes for it?
Thyrai – Injuring Eternity | Progressive House
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 27 March 2017.
Thyrai seems to be getting pretty great at upbeat house music, as shown by another excellent release here. Featuring solid percussion, a catchy chord progression and some nice lead synth sounds this is definitely one to jam to. There’s some great music box-style sounds and some violin in the break, and overall it’s a pretty powerful piece.
ThePloyMaker – A Night in Manehattan | Jazz
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 27 March 2017.
A new musician appears with a pretty awesome piece! We don’t hear much jazz in the fandom and The PloyMaker seems to have some skill with it. This piece focuses on some lovely trumpet and saxophone sounds, with soft drums helping to set the jazzy atmosphere. Give it a listen for a lovely night out in Manehattan!
Reverbrony – When Monsters Dance | Metal
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 26 March 2017.
Reverbrony’s series of super heavy metal instrumental tracks continues with this powerful Chrysalis-focused piece. Aggressive guitars, pounding drums, it has everything one would expect from this style that Reverb has made his own recently. The artwork fits the piece perfectly, and there are some pretty awesome guitar melodies that pop up throughout the piece.
