More Seth comments?! Also what benefits are there with the new comment system aside from being able to dell the difference between mods and everypony unimportant?

Sethisto said...

Old one with new bells

@goldenCapitalist
The mods have trixie face to them now

Nykkes64 said...

The New comment system mechanic is very accurate and fascinating!!!! ^_^

Dusklight said...

Shiny! Great work, blog ponies! :)
Also, totally awesome music! I love instrumentals!

JC said...

I'm pretty hard to please when it comes to fan music, but #1 is wonderful. If only there were more like this...

Maquabra said...

@Phoe
Gotta thank Ropes :)

Anyway, it's lovely but does it do anything other than giving colors to "user levels"?

Masquerade said...

Not a mod ;_;

That pianist is really straddling the line of beauty/sadness with that one.

SgtGarand said...

Still miss the ability to edit our posts

And I liked #1

Evya said...

ohh new comment system:O

Johannes Schäfer said...

nice, new comment system! looks good for me

video1: nah, not a good interpretation via piano... maybe after more practise with either his music-program, or, if he played most of it with a real piano, with his piano.

video2: remembers me about old trance hymns. i like ^^

video3: dunno, but i just had to smile <3

Maquabra said...

Yeah, I forgot to mention that this is my new fav section ^^ Though the 1st one was kinda strange. This song was simply not meant to be played like that imho. It's way to merry and energetic to allow any melancholy or even sadness.

Spell Nexus said...

Ooh, new commenting system
*looks up at all the other comments*
...crap

Sabrean said...

I like the mod picture...so very much...

Maquabra said...

@SabreanIt could use some Pinkie Pie

TehStrickland said...

Loving this new comment system

Spitfire8a said...

hmmmm i have mixed feelings on this new comment system.

*shrugs* i guess i just need to get used to change.

Aynine said...

Ugh, that Luna piano piece by PonyVisation is really nice.

Trot Fairweather said...

I need some good speakers/headphones so I can really enjoy this epic music properly

Captian64 said...

Ello new comment system!

Wingnut said...

I'm commenting just to see how cool my comment looks!

Ahiam94 said...

Pretty good set of songs, I really enjoyed the third.

Lazuli said...

It doesn't look like a new comment system as such, it's just prettyfied. Am I wrong?

Maquabra said...

@LazuliI'm afraid that you are. We could really use something more advanced :]

Guarddogjr said...

I like the new comment system it looks fancy!

TwiJacked said...

New stuff is always nice

HeffaLumps said...

i liek all the purdy colors

sirhim11 said...

Song number three is a hell yes.

ShadowboltDash said...

Why I already saw 3rd one like few weeks ago?! Wtf

Jordan said...

Wow! We're getting really close to 100,000,000!

baschotaria said...

Here we go.

#1 Finally, this is possibly the best piano improv i've heard in well, ages.

#2 Intro could use a tiny bit of work, the synth bells are a bit loud, otherwise daaaaamn

#3 notbad.avi

OtterMatt said...

Like the look of the comments now, but I prefer editing comments and nested replies. Makes it easier to tell if someone is talking to your comment.

CrayolaBrony said...

#1... I dunno why, but this almost makes me wanna cry, and i'm unsure of which kind of tears they would be. It's really good though.

#2: I didn't get hooked into it until about 10-15 seconds in. Love the background whooshes and long cymbals.

#3: Great intro, and good mixing all over the place. Party soft? Party pink? Heck, just PARTY! Headboppin' good fun.

Also, excellent comment appearance renovation. I like. But is it just my browser, or is EQD bannerless today? Kinda feels... naked up there, at the top of each page.

OtterMatt said...

Also, dammit, I apparently really, REALLY need to step my game up if I want any airtime. Archie V., why do you have to be so good and make me look so bad?

@goldenCapitalist

"everypony unimportant". What a very jerk-like way of phrasing that.

This new comment system design does look good. But it's going to get on my nerves a bit, I can tell already. Especially with ways of interpretation of some folks like that.

I really like the second two.

PonyVisation said...

This is PonyVisation. All songs that I record are not done by computer. For most of my songs I use a Baldwin Grand Piano. The Winter Wrap Up and Rarity Improvisation were done with a Clavinova CLP-280/270. The Clavinova's quality is just like my Baldwins.

Espion400 said...

New comment system looks pretty cool ~yay

#1: very good

#2: great, but the start could have been better

#3: have I seen this before...? Still, it's great

Autumn Oak said...

I think the new comment system works fine...

Also great music,Rarity music is best music

Sgt Byrd said...

1 is amazing for an improv, I really think it could be even better if the artist went back and tweaked it, maybe with less syncopation, it felt kinda forced.

On the comment section: so now we get to see mod comments in colour, don't really see much benefit. At least it didn't break my EQD Greasemonkey script. This change gets 4 shrugs out of 5 from me.

Blizzard Rush said...

@Sethisto I see your bells and raise you a whistle. Very nice.

PonyVisation said...

@Maquabra If you want sadness check out my song Ballad of the Pegasus, or the song Luna's First Day on the Dark Moon

goldenCapitalist said...

@Octavia How is that a mean way to put it :? Are you to tell me that we, on an individual basis (not as a community) matter to this blog as much as Seth, Phoe, Cereal, PK, and all the other mods? No, we don't. Which is why I said "everypony unimportant".

Forderz said...

How was Christmastime in Equestria not already on here?

ForestRain said...

I think the piano interpretation was interesting, but I didn't like the swelling strings in the background. (It does say improv right in the title, so I expect things to be rough.) #2 was so chill and awesome, and drew me in. #3 rocked so hard, it's now in my playlist. ^.^
