Season Two Episode One BGM Tracks

I'm glad these were created so quickly. This episode definitely had some amazing background music.  Will Anderson is a genius. 

1.) FiM BGM: The Balloon Garden [Pinkie's Corruption]
2.) FiM BGM: Discord Revealed
3.) FiM BGM - Rainbow Dash's Decision
4.) FiM BGM - The End of Harmony?

This was Awesome! Yeehaaw!

EonMaster said...

The Balloon Garden is the creepiest because of that laughter at the start.

Maeni said...

I like DrDissonance's Discord theme better :o

But I guess it makes sense since the official one is just a background theme, it's not supposed to be too intrusive :3
These BGM tracks definitely do have a very nice MLP charm over them though :D

I love seeing all the people saying "already?" and "that was fast"

Oh c'mon guys, what fandom do you think this is? the YT vid of S2E1 had nearly 100K views in the first 2 days. We had a discord PM THE SAME DAY. This fandom has had all summer to practice, and now is the time for our olympics!

Wow, these are amazing, I see why the music is so important for shows now.

Joey the Joey said...

The scene with the laughing balloons creeped the Hell out of me too. I love it when an otherwise innocent cartoon is capable of creeping me out, it shows how flexible the show itself is =D.

John said...

Oh man, I knew that Balloon Garden song was creepy while I was watching the episode, but actually hearing it without the vocals just makes you appreciate its creepiness that much more.

can anyone say My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Original Soundtrack on iTunes?

Scary Scott said...

Wow, The balloon garden one really got me right where It counts, it really creeped me out which is a quality I love in music. And part of the reason why I love this show so much.
all the bgm is good however on there own merit, and I give props to the song writers.

David said...

My favorite is the grove of truth. Then Discords reveal. These are great Will!

@NDupree93 Bronies are one of the fastest fandoms on the net. And Hasbro, The Hub, and everypony else is awesome for helping us out too.

Octavia said...

Very cool. I figured it wouldn't be long. This community works quick these days. :)

Melodia said...

Provided a 5.1 source, extracting the music is really quick and easy. Matching up with the video requires a bit more, but even so it's hardly something hugely time consuing.

Rainbow Crash said...

I can only imagine what incredible music a Will Anderson/ Trent Reznor/Charlie Clouser collaboration could yield...

slizardmaster said...

As someone pointed out in the balloon scene, as Pinkie bounces past the only green one there it blinks. Reminds me of the Nightmare Moon in the hourglass part.

The Linker said...

One of my favorite parts was the scene where Rainbow gathers up the cotton candy clouds and Applejack lassos them. It starts with Rainbow's typical electric guitar theme, then incorporates a banjo tune when Applejack starts up, and it's totally awesome.

JC said...

Props to "The Balloon Garden" for maximum creepiness, particularly at the very moment Discord hypnotizes her.

There was some good creepy sound going on in "The Grove of Truth," for that matter, starting around 0:48 but most prominent at 1:00.

thattagen said...

Discord's "theme" sounds a lot like a background theme from Home Alone. I swear I've heard this tune before...

Dr. Orbital Death-Ray said...

The Balloon Garden music reminds me of the Joker in Batman: The Animated series. Only, you know, creepier.

Ryan said...

Whoa! More BGMs! This time from the newest episode. There's a lot more content left in that episode...not just those 4 BGM pieces. Even though I increased much of the focus regarding BGMs, having them stripped with only the music makes it more clearer for people who aren't familiar with these.

There should've been more views personally. Gotta love William Kevin Anderson's work!

Slagathor said...

Play them all at once, now that is some chaos

Sumica said...

I feel kinda bad for not always noticing the background music but it really dose sell the shot and i am glad it's there.

Whispy Willows said...

I'm glad William was able to resist throwing in guitar riffs for Rainbow's part. Nothing against the electric guitar in general, but the scene was much creepier without them. My favorite has got to be Pinkie's. It's actually haunting to the point of making me shudder. Pure brilliance.

EPIC MUSIC!!!

Man, Pinkie gets the creepiest songs ever D:
