The opening track for Voyager really is something truly special. It combines and samples, in some way or another, every single song from the previous Ponies At Dawn album, Awakening (hence the title). Lia explains the process in the video description, but before you read that, just take a listen to this masterpiece, an ode to P@D!
Audios
Daniel Ingram – A Changeling Can Change (Einarx Remix)
Einarx joins the plentiful number of people who’ve taken on this song to remix it, and the results are pretty good. Vocal splicing and wubs, a relatively standard combination, but hey, sometimes if it ain’t broke you don’t need to fix it.
Zephysonas – Summer Lily’s | Orchestral
Almost definitely a misspelling, but I’ll let it slide. This piece from Zephysonas, although relatively simple, is very pleasant to listen to, Simply a nice, relaxing piece 🙂
Insanity – Comets | Drum & Bass
My only qualm with this is that the master sounds a little over-compressed, but otherwise we’ve got a solid dnb track from Insanity here, making their debut appearance on HMH (and A State of Sugar too, for that matter). Nice work Insanity, hope we get to see more of your work in the future.
Radiarc – Uncertainty | Orchestral
Sometimes people have a set name and theme in mind for their songs, and build it based around that. In this case…well it’s not quite the opposite either, more a mixture of both. And the strong emotion that I’ve come to expect to be embedded in Radiarc’s compositions shines through as usual.
[P@D] bank pain – Empire Past | Neurofunk
Here it is. The final Cider Party exclusive feature from the upcoming Ponies At Dawn album, Voyager. This neurofunk track from bank pain is exceptional. Definitely my favourite out of the previewed tracks so far, and hopefully only a small example of what this new P@D album has to offer!
The album premiere livestream starts in 2 hours. We hope to see you there!
Vylet Pony ft. Kyunn – Mr Whiskers (fractilx Remix) | Drum & Bass
One of the hidden gems from the deluxe edition of Super Pony World, here’s fractilx’s take on the “title is self explanatory” track Mr Whiskers. Fast paced drum breaks and fractilx’s signature techno-esque arpeggios adorn this track and make it pretty unique for the genre!
ertrii – You Know Well | Chill House
I was very happy to see this in my subscriptions box the other day. One of the masters of chill music, ertrii, has a new song after a few months of silence and it’s as relaxing as you’d expect. Let’s start the day off on a chill note, sit back and take a listen to this.
Technickel Pony – Sweepin’ The House | House
Oh look. The sweep remix train is still going. How about that?
Jokes aside, this is pretty cool. I’m reminded a lot of the soundtracks to the old Spyro games for some reason. Perhaps not intentional in the slightest, but it gives me a reason to enjoy it more :L
Hay Tea – Resume | Trip Hop
Hay Tea’s hip-hop instrumental tracks are always a pleasure to listen to, so sit back and let this one pleasure your ear holes. I don’t have much else to say, it’s just nice and surprisingly relaxing.
