You may already be familiar with Exiark’s music, but you may not have heard of Ataraxia (AKA Reverie). He co-hosts the Top 10 Pony Songs of the Month, so he knows what makes good music, and it shows in this piece! It retains the deep elements of the original, and of course CKibe’s amazing voice, but brings a much more mellow approach with fantastic sound design.
Audios
Cosmic Kingdoms – Electro Hearts | Indie Dance
Cosmic Kingdoms are relative new name in the pony music scene and this, only their second song, is an absolute gem of a track. It’s been a while since I’ve heard much like this in the fandom and this is a very welcome addition.
Also, this is my favourite kind of love song:
Unrequited horse love.
.«/set_adrift» (I’ve Got To Find a Way) str•igi•dae cover | Chillout
I’ve Got To Find A Way was possibly one of the most emotional songs of season three and I am hard pressed to think of someone I would rather hear covering it. Strigidae’s raw, powerful, and expressive vocals are a perfect fit.
It’s also rather interesting to revisit this song from a Luna perspective; it’s not something I would have picked up on myself, but I can definitely see it.
Jyc Row – Princess Tempora | Orchestral
Jyc Row has recently been releasing some very high quality orchestrated works, and this release continues in that vein – an epic orchestral piece about a princess from the ‘Timey Wimey’ web comic series.
Mush – The Spectacle (Remix) | Deep House
Mush has been producing some of the best 8-bit inspired music in the fandom for years, and so it’s no surprise that this deep house remix of ‘The Spectacle’ with the classic Mush vibe infused within is one of the best I’ve heard so far.
GhostXb – Endless Faith | Symphonic Rock
A new post from the GhostXb is always a great refresher for my more electronic ears, perfectly embodying Applejack in this track which merges electric and acoustic guitar sounds with the flowing sound of an orchestra before bringing in a hit of that classic “Old West Action” feeling from eons past (Clint Eastwood would be proud). All in all one of my favorites of the new year, good job Ghost.
Draconequus – Tricks Up My Sleeve (Cover) | Metal
Draconequus have released some high quality tracks in the past, and this time is no different as they deliver a high quality lounge metal cover of one of the most popular tracks from the second Equestria Girls movie, Tricks Up My Sleeve, all wrapped up in a very well produced music video.
Agents of Discord ft. Olly Hancock – Friendship is Magic (Revamp) | Breakbeat
Friendship is Magic by the team of Agents and Olly, takes you on a nostagic 10 minute long journey with catchy, upbeat elements and manages to keep you entertained the entire time. Between the Twilight vocal chops, cheery synths and beat this is definitely a solid tune.
Kadenza – Dreamwalker | Melodic House
From Kadenza, one of the best creators of upbeat house music in the fandom, comes a new melodic house track full of good vibes. Inspired by the likes of Alan Walker and Ahrix, the feel of this track will be pretty familiar to anybody who has heard their style of music before. An uplifting build and an energetic drop with a catchy melody help make this one of Kadenza’s best tunes yet.
WoodLore – Pantina | Acoustic
After an 8-month hiatus, WoodLore makes his triumphant return with his beautiful voice and excellent guitar playing, Patina is a great song about our favorite zebra, Zecora and her journey throughout all the land before finally coming to her home near to Ponyville.
Welcome back, WoodLore, we missed you.
