I Like the artwork in the first one, it looks like Octavia's playing for Mordor xD
Third's my fave though :D

Kuolema said...

I was already listening to Sparkle when I opened this post :D

Detoxicity said...

#1 Octavia music is good music!
#2 Eeeeeenope not my cup of tea.
#3 Pretty catchy, welcome to my playlist!
#4 DOWN WITH THE SOLAR EMPIRE! HAIL THE LUNAR REPUBLIC!

DRTJR said...

The fourth one is giving me a serious Fable vibe

paradoxador said...

What a great collection this time around <3

Angel Heart said...

#2 Has peaked my interest.

Rainbow Crash said...

@DRTJR
well, it does SAMPLE the fable soundtrack XD

Pinkamina Diane Pie said...

I thought #2 would be a PMV to the song that goes, "If looks could kill they probably will." I was extremely wrong. I thought Pinkie was my favorite, but the fandom reminds me why Rarity and Fluttershy are up there with her. I can't choose, I just know that those 3 are my favorites.

Roman500 said...

I have to say #3 was the best.

keneticpest said...

I would say #4 is my favorite, but seeing as how I'm the author of it that would be unfair of me. (if you need proof, I'll post up a comment)

For this one, I'm saying the first one is my favorite.

Cereal Velocity said...

It's not a contest, guys.

NDupree93 said...

#2 was already awesome, but when he too came to the obvious conclusion that Rarity is Best Pony it shot up in quality.

Lazulic said...

geeze, so much stuff is being posted!

that being said, I think #2 is the first rap about ponies ive heard. Interesting...

Lazulic said...

Also, Rarity is not best pony. Everyone knows that

NDupree93 said...

@Lazulic
Rarity is best pony. Everyone knows that.*

Pinkie Pie said...

@Cereal Velocity
Of course it's not a contest.

Because Rarity's always bribing the judges, even though I always win.

Lazulic said...

@Pinkie Pie You will always win. And if not, eh, make em into cupcakes!

Sun Ray said...

1. Meh
2. Oh god shut that rap crap off
3. Eww, show dialogue ruining my music
4. AHHHH WHY SO SHORT! WTF IS WITH ARTISTS MAKING 1.5 MINUTE TRACKS WTFFFFFF

Pinkie Pie said...

@Lazulic
It's so strange. Everypony keeps saying I make ponies into cupcakes...

NDupree93 said...

@Pinkie Pie
Oh you know she's not the type to do that Pinkie. You ARE a close second for Best Pony, but it'll take one heck of a solo musical number to beat out "Art of the Dress" in the musical category.

Leafsword said...

3 is something that I'd expect to here with a videogames credits. It's just got that "success/rebirth" feeling.

WhiteDiamonds said...

I thought those were all very good... it's been a while since I've checked in on any of the music posts but I'm sure I've been missing out if these are any indication. I personally loved #2... people can call Rarity bias again (which might be true), but I think it's more the fact some random dude on the internet is here rapping about how fabulous she is; just too much win. <3 #4 also must receive a special mention (the music just fits that poster far too well, I love it!), #1 was beautiful to listen to, and #3 made for excellent background music as I sit here working.

So much muchness today.

(Dr Dissonance here)

Well:

1: Pretty nice, already chatted to Orch about improvements!
2: Not my cup of tea, but seemed pretty cool!
3: Amazing, along with all the other remix war entries (which should be up here soon!)
4: Sounded nice, but the fact that it was just two songs pasted together (slowed down Winter Wrap Up and The Temple of Light from Fable (2?)) doesn't show much originality...

Chris W. said...

I liked them all, but #2 seriously hooked me. I love good hiphop, and when it's crossed with ponies... well, sign me up.

Risky said...

The fact that #2 exists at all is a feat that I feel deserves SOME recognition. Some dude just made a RAP about freakin PONIES. Is there nothing this fandom can't do?

Pyrobug said...

Geez, more Octavia music. Fine, just...........*sniff*

Pogosama said...

Pogosama here, rapper behind #2. Thanks for the love here guys, laughing my head off about some of these comments. Dig the love and support! I'm already making more, so stay tuned!

Jelfes said...

I loved all excluding #2, it really just isn't my style of music, plus, he totally said Rainbow Dash wrong.

Smokey Treble said...

1. Pretty nice. I always figured Octavia would play something more uptempo in a chamber setting, though.

2. Oh yeah, I'm into it. Damn good job, man.

3. Not bad, but not really for me.

4. Sort of reminds me of the bell part in the intro for Final Fantasy Tactics. Except creepier. I like it.

LcplBronyUSMC said...

#1 An amazing, yet tragically short piece.
#2 Not my thing, but mad props to the guy who made it, as I think that's the first pony rap I've heard.(Unless you count "Pony Swag" as rap. >.>)
#3 Catchy little tune, I liked it.
#4 @bunyipofdoom, I can totally what you are talking about...kind of saddens me becaeuse it does seem like a direct rip. =\ Overall it doesn't seem that bad though.

WhiteDiamonds said...

@Pogosama

Ahh you, sir, have my greatest respect for that little piece; please do keep it up, I eagerly look forward to more!

Pogosama said...

@WhiteDiamonds

Hit me up on my YouTube channel to catch all the new pony beats. They will of course come through EQD, Sethisto/Phoe/Cereal willing, so just keep supporting ponies and you'll catch it! :D

WhiteDiamonds said...

@Pogosama

I shall do all of the above, thank you muchly! ;)

Unknown said...

I don't know, the fourth one didn't give me a feeling a song dedicated to a sun goddess should. It was kind of mysterious and shady, dark in a way that didn't really fit with the theme. I think it should've been a little more bright and glorious.

DJ VS-3 said...

I'm not a rap fan, but I enjoyed the Rarity rap.

Three was the best with Tavi right behind that one.

Cloudy Skies said...

Time of death: At 2:47 of #3.
We're done here. My heart stopped beating.

Thank you!

SecondJack said...

All of you did great!
Thank you for the music!

Octavia said...

First one... ah, more orchestral pieces from this artist. Eh, it was decent. I do prefer things a bit more dynaimc, as I'm often stating. But a nice soft mellow piece can be nice too.

That Rarity rap song... not a fan of rap, but ponies can make me want to make exceptions sometimes. It's no Pony Swag of course. Unfortunately, that's pretty much THE pony rap song all others are judged againdt now. lol But it certainly was not bad. I liked it.

Sparkle mix was kinda cool. I was enjoying listening to it.

The Church of Celestia music wasn't much to my tastes I suppose. Also found it to be a bit on the boring side.

StonerSunshine said...

#1 - <3 Octavia love your strings as usual
#2 - Would've worked better with that Rarity Bling pic
#3 - <-- I like this (and saved)
#4 - oh its the church of cele.........HAIL THE LUNAR REPUBLIC!!!!!!!! (Given Reflex Response)

Muffinsforever said...

The Celestia one sounds so much like that song from Fable...which it is, which makes it even more awesome (it's my ringtone)

danegraphics said...

Wow. Even though I didn't make any music. My stuff still made it to EqD.

I made that caption image :D

danegraphics said...

1- Look for better samples... it will help a LOT
2- That was hilarious and well done. Find a better suiting Rarity pic and you're gold.
3- PepperBrony consistant as usual. *thumbs up*
4- I don't know what to think, achieves creepy yet it feels thrown together...

princess Midna said...

#2- all the ponies i think of that could be in this is: Octavia, Lyra, and Sonata. Any other "string" ponies?
