A Symphony of Two are back with more orchestral goodness, supplemented by some more orchestral music from a newer guy! ASoT's piece beautifully melds their trademark strings with some lovely woodwind, and later on in the track some rumble-y percussive sounds that help to build an air of mysterious adventure. In the second piece, Koolkat gives a much more cinematic twirl, using some great arpeggiation and piano to build a sense of momentum through the air. There's some lovely strings and chord hits that steadily build up in power through the piece. It's definitely very uplifting.

Hey folks! The Illustrious Q here bring you some "they thought they escaped our notice" MLP Toy News from New York Toy Fair! After spending Saturday afternoon sending Seth over three hundred pictures of the upcoming My Little Pony: The Movie and Equestria Girls Toys--I still can't get over how fast Sunset Sushi became a thing--I spent the last few days of Toy Fair on their exhibit floor looking for things that might have escaped WeAreBorg's notice when he scouted out the Toy Fair Floor.
Aside from a couple of items that I absolutely could not photograph (and thus really talk about , but they are super neat) there was really not much that we missed while we were initially out on the floor. But we did miss a couple of gems that really brought a smile to this Brony's face.
Like Sun-Staches booth filled with different molded sunglasses in the shapes of Pop culture icons! And no your eyes are not deceiving you, there is a set of glasses for MLP! Be sure to check out after the break for a full look at the offerings from here, World Trade Jewelers, and the augmented reality company Decalomania!

Hasbro vectors, again? A reuse of a previously published cover by Andy Price? Must be time for the monthly Trade Paperback Solicitations form IDW! I know I usually start out with these, and separate them into different posts, but I'm saving the Legends of Magic solicitation for last because it is quite frankly the best of the bunch.
Be sure to check out the solicitations for these two trade paperbacks--a possible what if scenario for a "Chaos Theory" and the most tame way I've ever heard Tirek's smack down ever described--after the break!!!

Can't say I ever was a huge fan of Nurse Redheart due to my CRIPPLING FEAR of all things medical, but this is really well drawn.
In fact, this is probably one of my favorite drawfriend posts in a while. So much good art!
Go get it all below.

Wouldn't it be nice if we got a stallions only episode? We certainly have enough of them now and it might be cool to expand on their characters a bit more. I mean, why do the mares always have to have all the adventures? Though maybe not the sort of 'adventure' depicted here.
Comic time guys, get the rest after the break!

Electronic Music: Budzy - Tempesto [Dubstep] / UndreamedPanic - Cold (Sonic Rainboom Remix) [Psytrance]
by ExplodingPonyToastSome pretty cool electronic music from different sides of the spectrum here! First up Budzy is back with another dubstep piece, this one being pretty funky with the off-beat stabs leading up to a drop filled with some pretty cool sounds. It's not especially full on, but that lets the sounds that are there shine through pretty well. The second track is Sonic Rainboom's psytrance remix of Panic's pretty heavy electro track Cold. A slow and dark tune, it builds through the track terrifically and makes awesome use of the melody from the original. I especially enjoy the care taken with all the auxiliary sounds unitised throughout the piece that add a lot of depth. Grab them both below!

Story: A Nightmare in Love
by Calpain
[Drama][Romance]
Author: Oroboro
Description: Princess Mi Amore Cadenza receives a lot of love letters every Hearts and Hooves Day. Most of them are harmless, maybe even a little silly. Most. Some precious few are too sincere, too earnest for that. This can have unintended consequences in a kingdom powered by a love radiating artifact

Borg here with an apology: This is all we got. This one image. Hasbro was really tight lipped. So first, obviously, with the Gameloft logo and the use of the phrase "your game" we can safely assume its an update to the existing Gameloft game and not some new app. Judging by how the last few major updates have gone should expect new mini-games, new ponies, and with a phrase like "beyond Equestria" new locales. Either that or they are rolling out some augmented reality stuff. MyLittlePony Go anyone? Either way, we'll be seeking out more news as this develops.

Awesome vocals from Lyde Octave and Vylet himself, a funky feel and some killer sound design all combine to make this new track one of my recent favourites from him. I'm a sucker for good glitch hop so it's pretty awesome to see some more of it from Vylet. The combination of jazzy groove and contemporary bass design is something that seems to come pretty well to Vylet and it definitely suits his style. Check it out below!

Morning Discussion #774
by Calpain
You know, I have absolutely loved that Pinkie has Gummy for a pet. He's not your typical pet and I really thought it showed that girls can have any pet they want! Whether it be furry, scaly, whatever.
Morning guys, ready to chat?
