Music: Giant Monarch Butterfly / Pony Pet Labour / Find A Pet Song (Electrotank Remix)

I love these faces.  I don't know why.

A few remixes of the new song have popped up.  The very nature of it makes this a difficult feat.  It doesn't really have a solid melody throughout the entire track, which is probably the reason why these are trickling out so slowly. 

Anyway, check them out after the break! The videos in that third one are hilarious.

1.) Giant Monarch Butterfly
2.) Pony Pet Labour
3.) Rainbow Dash & Fluttershy - Find A Pet Song (Electrotank Remix)

This is a silly place....

Marty said...

And I believe the smiles on those faces are too big and the eyes too small. They freak me out.

23rd? too much fun the first one is neat!

@Phantom240

It's only a model...


I really don't get #3 it's so...random.

#2 Is pretty good, I like it.

#1 Wasn't quite what I felt like listening to right now but it's fairly well done I think

I like the pinkie pie gif and the derpy gif on the last video (and btw when people say "first: that wasnt the first "comment" if you didnt make a comment on the post :/)

SimGretina for great justice!

Those faces are bucking creepy because the eyes are not in with the smile.

Mason said...

I love these faces, too :D

Armando said...

@Marty While I respect your right to find it creepy, those eyes are taking up 2/3 of her head. I can't picture them being much larger. I think it's more the mouth size/shape/position that's creeping people out. But if anything, I'd argue that smile is relatively small compared to others we've seen in season 1 (or, heck, Twilight's "How wonderful!" face from Lesson Zero.)

Me, I like them. I can't place my finger on it, but for some reason, I do.

LowRyder said...

I like all of em, I just think that Fluttershy's vocals stand out WAY to much in the first one. They need to be turned down a little, and maybe throw a little reverb in there too.

SonofMrPeanut said...

Glad to see that expression is so popular. It's actually my favorite Rainbow Dash face so far.

#1: Sounds, simple and doesn't represent the original song itself.

#2: Much better, but I just missed a small thing, hard to describe.

#3: Didn't watch the clip, the music was so terrible I just couldn't stand it.

Greenf0x said...

I love these faces as well, only i know why i love them seth.

GaruuSpike said...

Oh god

DASH QUIT LOOKING AT US LIKE THAT

For those who are uncomfortable with it, I know exactly how to fix it. The teeth. Make them span all the way across the mouth instead of curving inward before the edges. It makes it toothy, but it works. :3

WizardWannabe said...

@Marty Oh man, good to know I'm not the only one who thought those faces were weird. Though I cannot place why. They just stuck out when I watched the ep.

Nomad Prime said...

@WizardWannabe
I think the reason the wide smile seems weird is because it's more a human expression than a pony one. Since ponies have a pointed snout, the narrow smiles we've been seeing earlier are more in line with what that would cause, and these smiles are more characteristic of a flat face. On the same principle, the way they draw a sideways pony grin would look weird on a human.

Kaijyuu said...

I'm of the opinion the faces are extremely creepy.


I also think the fandom will be split over this for the rest of eternity.

Jon Fawkes said...

Why the long face? ಠ_ಠ

The faces are actually kind of endearing after watching the song clip a hundred times. They definitely do not fit in, but it's kinda nice when you get used to it.

1 was kinda cool

2 was different. The song played in a different key certainly gives it a different feel

3 wasn't bad. I just wish the video wasn't made up of crappy gifs

dontstopme said...

Good lord, these smiles creep me out... *shudder*

Joel said...

Just loved the interpretation of the song in number two! <3

MetalBeerSolid said...

"The videos in that third one are hilarious."

>expect something cool, end up getting lame gifs

YOUR NEWFAG IS SHOWING SETH

Harwick said...

The face is a bit off-putting to me too. Grab the mouth and nose in Photoshop and move them lower on the face and it suddenly stops looking quite so freaky to me. With them raised up like that, the nose feels too small and the centralized features makes her look like she has a human face, rather than a snout with a mouth on the underside of it.

For the music, the "Pony Pet Labor" is my favorite. I'm a fan of "Art of Industry" and the steampunk/industrial sound works well with this song.

Cylestia said...

#2 was good, the others were meh.

Epesi said...

Trickling out...slowly?

I don't think I will ever get used to how amazingly fast this fandom moves. It's only been three days since the new episode, and the remixes are "trickling out slowly".

WHY CAN'T I KEEP UP WITH ALL THIS PONY

Octavia said...

They're all alright. Though the second was my favorite for it's Steampunk industrial feel. Done pretty well too.

Wierdplatformer said...

1. Really neat version.

2. The steampunker strikes again! Woot!

3. The music is awesome, but the video is slightly random.

Wallacoloo said...

None of these are very good quality remixes. I can't stand the hi hat in the first one. It just completely disrupts any flow that the song could have had and is too distracting. The second one was just too slow/boring. The third was better, and I'm not going to criticize it because the hilarious video made up for any problems in the song.

But regardless of how (not) good these are, I am impressed with how quickly they were made.

Ink said...

So much on these D:

1: Liked it :) Not the most impressive remix of course, but it was still very nice and I enjoyed it
2: Love steam-punk, and I loved Art of the Industry, so this sounded awesome! Really like this one.
3: Loved this remix! It was really well done and fun to listen to. It would have been done better if they hadn't included the gifs since most people seem to be hating on it for that, but if you don't watch the video (go do something else) while listening, its really good!

Overall a pretty decent music post. I seen better, I've seen worse, but overall I am impressed that these were made so quickly, and aren't nearly as bad as I expected them to be :) Great job everypony

rumi55 said...

First two were just great. Third music was good too, but video..well....wierd

Forderz said...

Gotta love that Dissonance.

nhydock said...

This is why I love that face

@Armando

The difference was, Twi's smile was supposed to be creepy to show that she was cracking. I don't think Dash's smile is creepy per se, but...off, somehow.

ADSF said...

Her face reminds me of The Kid from I Wanna be the Guy.

Duckstabber said...

I know how to fix the face...

Remove the dimples(?) at the corner of her mouth,and lower the nose slightly.

Problem solved.

cjwcjwcjwcjw said...

HOLY F*CK those faces actually creep me out a little...

MassDistraction said...

Giant monarch butterfly got his own song? Oh my.
