For the Luna republic!

Cody said...

Whoo! Go Luna music!

Dublio said...

The 1st one reminds me of the Titanic for some reason.

The 2nd video makes me feel proud for loving this fandom.

The 3rd video reminds me of an epic battle. Or maybe it's because of the picture hence marching.

Shrimp Almighty said...

#1 = Awesome.
#2 = I was compelled to salute.
#3 = New addition to my iTunes.

All in all. Awesome music.

Detoxicity said...

All hail the Lunar Republic!
It's a bit of a proven fact that all Luna music is awesome. #1 is no exception.

justsomepony said...

Hail Luna!! But all three were epic and great. I like the new flow for #2.

MaSc said...

pretty good music this time

LcplBronyUSMC said...

#1 Blew my mind...

#1 ...blew my MIND!

#2 Impressive..until the guitar part. XD

#3 I am reminded of

#1 ...FOR LUNA!

Stargazer said...

*Whistles* Wow... I love this community! I love everything right now!
#1: And then I joined the NLR.
#2: Absolutely amazing!
#3: Very nice tune.

As we flow in the night, we sing to the stars;
While withstanding blight, we heal our scars.

From Dusk 'till Dawn, we march our ways;
Not once have we withdrawn, nor set ablaze.

We respect our friends, as we respect our foes;
We make amends, even with those we appose.

We are of the night, we are of the moon.
We are the New Lunar Republic, and we hail the Lunar Rune.

#1 is way to good just to be about the Lunar Republic. It could be a musical piece in a movie.

Gah, how does all this talent find its way into this fanbase, of all places? This is like the Renaissance of the internet. Kudos to the musicians that designed these pieces.

WizardWannabe said...

That first video is beautiful and captivating.

Miyajima said...

#1 - All hail the New Lunar Republic! Down with the Celestial Empire!

#2 - All hail the Celestial Empire! Down with the New Lunar Republic!

hamyojo said...

I proudly serve the Solare Empire!

EruditeSpectre said...

Is #1 typically sung in "old Equestrian?" [grin]

Vinyl Scratch said...

The Lunar Republic continues to march, an unstoppable force guided by the stars towards a grand and unfathomable destiny...

Hoist your flags, LNR - Hoist them high!

Gordon Freemane said...

See, this is one of the reasons I hate the NLR thing. There's tons of music for the NLR, which means frequent NLR songs on EqD, which means tons of goons going bananas. Why the bloody hell does nopony make good music for the Solar Empire?

G.Buddell said...

#1 - Amazing. Just, wow. I need to play that on something way better than my crappy earbuds here at work as soon as I possibly can, because there's no way they're doing justice to this piece.

#2 - How convenient. I'm flying the Equestrian flag at work this week for our office olympic games, and now I'll have something to play at the award ceremony if I ever win an event.

#3 - Interesting, but it never seemed to go anywhere, like the climax of the piece got left out.

Joey the Joey said...

I don't think I'm joining the Lunar Republic bandwagon just yet, but damn, that first song was really awesome! =D Infinite props and kudos to the maker, as well as youtube likes and favorites lol.

aJonathan said...

:/ Not impressed tonight.
Perhaps I'm just in a bad mood

Draksune said...

#1 - awwwww yeah!
#2 - But...I...I like Luna more but this, this is so freaking epic. /salute Celestia

Son Gopaul said...

Okay, so I'm not sure what the New Luna republic thing is, I'm guess it's a Fallout: Equestria thing. Gotta get round to reading that.

Either way, I loved #1.

Greenf0x said...

Welcome to the NLR Seth, here is your honorary banner, poster, bobby pin, sticker, and of course, bumbersticker. =P

AustinB said...

What's wrong with Princess Celestia? For hundreds of people who don't live under her rule...

I think Studio B should incorporate the whole "Luna and Celestia can hear the voices of their subjects while sitting on their thrones" thing from Hoennshy. Really good idea.

LimeyLassen said...

I downloaded every song and subbed to every one. Seriously, this post is god-tier.

Octavia said...

#1 I like the pic they used. Nice. I also like this song, pretty good. Has a nice strong and dynamic feel to it. Great for something like this. For The New Lunar Republic. :)

#2 Sounded pretty good. Think someone else pointed this out too, about the guitar. It sounds kinda cool, but I dunno. Sounds a bit modern or such for a proper anthem. But maybe I'm just old-fashioned like that. Still a nice piece.

#3 Hmm, I rather like this piece. It's got a nice flow to it. It's not overdone but not too soft and simple either.

Jelfes said...

#3 amazing as well... that first one though, it was just too much win.

#2 was good, but it didn't have epicness to back it up like the other two did.

Son Gopaul said...

@Son Gopaul

Okay, I just looked it up. It has nothing to do with Fallout: Equestria. Still an interesting concept though.

Flashback said...

I imagine quite a bit of work went into each of these songs, but I couldn't get behind a single one. I think this is the first time I've disliked an entire music post. O.o

ChaosDX1 said...

1) Nice. Very nice. Why does it remind me of Spacechem though?

2) Beautiful

3) Wow, that's some awesome art there. And so is the music.

Jimperz said...

I've never been a fan of the whole Lunar Republic vs Solar Empire thing. Putting aside canon, it doesn't even make much sense in fanon. After episode two Celestia and Luna essentially agree to reform into a Diarchy - so... Where's the civil war concept come in? I blame Fan Fiction. :P

Regardless, that first piece is absolutely gorgeous. However from a symbolic standpoint, the second one, the anthem, is better because it reflects the unity of Equestria.

My two bits.

Ford said...

The second one was amazing.

Lemonite said...

The first one was bucking brilliant!

And when the second one was started I couldn't help but throw my hoof up in a salute! xD

The third was pretty meh honestly... Felt very bland.

Pyrobug said...

#1 Seriously? Seriously? Ok, I've managed to avoid saying this until now, but how are you people so damn brilliant? Dammit this is incredible. I almost can't believe this is about ponies, of all things. Ponies.

#2 This is good. I don't really think of it as a Solar Empire thing, though. It's more just Equestrian.

Wierdplatformer said...

1. Peace Corps, I take no sides!

2. *Salutes*

3. cool, but slightly eerie.

icekatze said...

I love this fandom sometimes. :)

Everlasting Joy said...

Requiems, anthems and marches are some of my favorite styles and genres of music.

All of these videos, IMPRESSIVE!

baschotaria said...

#1 Not too bad, gotta say its a clever touch. Hearing some Garageband symphonic loops in there, approved.

#2 I'm still gonna be a skeptic on this whole "national anthem" business. Song is well done though!

#3 Color me a snob, but having orchestral instruments would make this 20% better

Thederpsauce said...

The Lunar Republic shall conquer all! FOR THE NLR!

Scribbles said...

@Gordon Freemane

Because, no offense, nobody cares for the Solar Empire.

Also, you could try making a song. Better than complaining.

RedShocktrooper said...

#3 Definately martial. For some reason I still picture Luna - as a leader - being a bit more martial than Celestia, who's just a bit of a troll at worst.

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

As the author of the National Anthem there in #2 (I have a different name on DA than here) I am absolutely THRILLED that this made it up :D

So glad how most of you seem to like it :) not sure where the idea that it's for the "Solar Empire" is though... I strictly referenced both the sun AND moon. I guess it's the image, though I didn't choose that image. The guy that set up the video did.

Anyway, keep strong, my bronies! I salute you!

PinkPonyJedi16 said...

I don't know about Lunar or Solar empire ,but all of these songs are amazing!
...
Is there a "Anarchy that Discord runs" sort-of group? XD That anthem would be epic.

Stephen said...

Really loved #2! *salute*

SatRock said...

#3 Beginning = Red Alert Hell March.
