Mystical Luna Dubstep Music: Exiark - Dark Ascension

Exiark's works are almost always incredible feats of sound design and mixing, with this latest being no different! Starting out with some strong ambience and subtle arabian-style composition with strong use of vocal elements, if steadily morphs into some powerful and clean dubstep that is arranged brilliantly. Check it out below the break!

Comic: Episode 14 / December 1 / Winging It / AoS 1:23 / Super 2:1 / Sable 40 / Lonely 2:74 / Recall 247 / Once

Discovery Family Airing Equestria Girls Specials, Plus Bonus Music Video Tomorrow

An announcement sent over the Discovery Family Twitter has revealed a "Summer Shorts" event tomorrow night after Garfield Airs. The Equestria Girls shorts are going to play, followed by a "never before seen music video". I don't know if that will be including a new song, or if it's just a PMV, but it's notable and we will keep an eye out for it!

Get the announcement video below.

Note: Since some are confused, this is apparently completely NEW, not the dance/movie/etc magic series!

Flashy: Despacito, Nobody Home, Desperado, Starlight, Ready for Weekend

We have a bunch of these super flashy PMVs in the folder for you all today, so lets do a big ol' compilation of them. Expect tons of effects, blinding animations, and more!

Go get them below.

Fluttershy Sings... All Star

The meme that keeps on givin apparently. I remember first seeing it spawn on reddit too. Strange times.

If you have no idea what that means, the "All Star" song has been getting remixed to death by various singers and music makers, and now Fluttershy is on board. Go get it down below.

Music: GhostXb - They Mustn't See Me Cry (feat. BriLizy T) [Orchestral Hip Hop]

GhostXb is really getting good at this hip hop-influenced orchestral style, and this is certainly his best track of that nature yet! Featuring gorgeous emotional Sunset Shimmer vocals from BriLizy T, the hip hop percussion combines brilliantly with light orchestral strings and some nice subtle guitar too. The song tells the tale of Sunset struggling with her emotions whilst transitioning from foe to friend to the Mane 6. Check it out below!

Parts of Sia's Song from Songbird Toy Posted on Twitter

Not long ago we posted about the massive influx of movie toys hitting stores, one of them being the Songbird Serenade toy that could sing. Since then someone has found one of these toys and has gotten a chance to try it out in the store.

It appears to be that the toy sings parts of what I can only assume to be the song Songbird will sing during the movie! It's a little hard to hear and not the best quality as it is coming from a toy, but it's a first look at what to possibly expect from Sia's song in the movie.

Thanks to Mutton Bash for letting us know. Get the video after the break!

Tempest Shadow Plushie up for Pre-order on Entertainment Earth

Tempest Shadow has now been listed over on Entertainment Earth for pre-order. They list the release date as August 2017, so hopefully that means she's out with the rest of the toys dropping next week.

You can pick her up over here for 12 bucks.

Thanks to Jake, Ryan, and Lyra for the heads up.

Storm King Now on Sale on Amazon

For anyone out there looking to pick up the new Storm King Guardians of Harmony figure, it looks like he's finally listed on Amazon to purchase. Unfortunately it looks like all the cheap ones are gone, but a scalper still has it available for the crazy price of 88 bucks.

Hopefully this means stock will return, so keep an eye out! We will get an update if it does.

Check out the listing over here.

Newbie Artist Training Grounds VII: Day 1

Here we are once again my friends! It's time for another Newbie Artist Training Grounds and I hope you all are as excited as I am about tackling a whole month filled with challenges and awesome artwork. The training grounds have helped many different people from around the fandom discover their love of art or at the very least shown them that with a little practice and effort they too can draw!

As in past years of the ATG, this event is about fun, learning, and pushing yourself to try and do something you didn't think you could before! Being involved in so many of these I know that those who participate (even if only for a few days) will find something they can take away from this event and I believe in every one of you who decides to draw with us over these next 30 days.

So are you guys excited and ready to get started? Well, first off, if you're still new to the training grounds or need a small refresher, please check our post from earlier this week containing details on what the ATG is all about. You can find it here.

For those of you who are ready to get started, here we go! For your very first assignment we have a classic we've opened every single ATG with, with the usual slight variation: Draw a pony standing / Draw a pony striking a pose.

The submission page itself can be found here! If you want some tips on how to draw check out our tutorial page which you can find here.

You can submit up to three pieces of artwork per prompt! Prompts end in roughly 24 hours so submissions will close between 12am-3am July 30th for this prompt.

People of all skills levels are welcome!

As to how to submit your piece of artwork, please check after the break for a full tutorial on how to submit!

Morning Discussion #930

With some of the hot days we've been having I think I would welcome a cold snowy day at this point. In the depths of winter though I'm quite sure my feelings will change.

Morning guys, ready to chat?
