Netflix Adds Correction to MLP Season 7 Addition - No Episodes This Fall

A small addendum has been added to the video announcing season 7's August release over on the official Netflix Youtube channel. It's pretty straight forward:

Correction: My Little Pony Season 7 will not be arriving on the service until the Fall.

 It looks like we will have to wait a bit longer to randomly bingewatch new pony on Netflix.
Thanks to David for the heads up.

Artist Training Grounds VII - Day 27

Nothing like exploring your past to help understand your future! Even if the past is a little... confusing. I'm really happy to see what you guys came up with over the past 24 hours! Quite a bit of imagination, though it might be my bias towards seeing ponies eating grass and such, heh. Well done everyone!

For today we brought in an additional 93 ponies bringing us up to 3783 ponies in total!

With us up to day 27 with only a couple more prompts left before our wrap up prompts I can only hope at this late point you all are still having fun! For today's prompt I thought it would be nice to bring up one from last year where I had you guys Draw a pony on the mend / Draw a pony fixing something to give you a chance to draw ponies a little under the weather or fixing anything from friendships, to cars, to starships!

As usual you can find our submitter here! Have fun everyone!

Remember, our compiler is up a few hours even after this post goes up so feel free to submit your submission even though this post is up!

Check on after the break for our full gallery!

Exclusive Cover for My Little Pony The Movie Prequel Trade Paperback Coming to a Scholastic Book Fair Near You!

I don't know which cover I like more. The standard cover that will be everyone starting on Tuesday, or this one which will be available only at Scholastic Book Fairs Starting on August 29th… which is also Tuesday.

Not to self, double check calendar before making hype posts to keep from making fool of self.

Anyways, for the first time since the Trade Paperback Release of Adventures in Friendship Volume 4—so a while ago—IDW Publishing has commissioned Tony Fleecs for a brand new Scholastic Book Fair Exclusive Cover. Just look at the composition of the characters on that cover! It is amazing! It is incredible! It is…

Dear lord Capper is one very tall kitty cat.

If you happen to be attend a school which hosts a book fair, or you have a little sibling/kid which does, consider possibly having them pick it up. The three issues that have been released thus far have been a ton of fun! Plus it is the perfect way to get ready for the Movie which is coming out in 5 weeks!

Electronic Music: Daniel Ingram - Flawless (174UDSI Remix) [House] / Silver Aura - Paradise [Tropical House]

Some pretty upbeat house-y stuff here! First we're got another remix of Flawless from 174UDSI. It makes good use of the verse vocals, as well as lovely synth progressions throughout. The second piece is a tropical house track from Greyfade and Jalmaan under their collaborative alias Silver Aura. Featuring some solid guitar sounds and nice vocal synths, it's got a great vibe to it. Check them both below!

Neural Network Designs MLP Pony Names

We've been getting this one in our inbox the past day or so and it's pretty neat I think! A science and apparent pony fan recently ran 1500 pony names from the show (obtained through the MLP Wiki) through a neural network! Neural networks are modeled after the human brain and are used to solve problems, recognize patterns, ect in a similar fashion. Once the network had its hands on the names it started to recognize common themes and patterns in pony names and started to create its own, generating pony names... though with varying success.

Ranging from names that sound right to, well, not so right, it's a fun read! And I'm sure if some artists are particularly inspired we might get some faces to these names.

For the rest of us, why not use the pony creator the author used to render some of these ponies in the flesh? Post links to your creations in the comments!

A big thanks to everyone who sent this in!

Music: Sprocket - A Dark Sublime (feat. SaxBrony & W. H. Auden) [Indie Pop]

Sprocket's recent Princess Variations album comes to a close in its releases with this gorgeous jazzy piece. Sprocket's indie-style vocals fit the eclectic instrumental terrifically, and the sax solo from SaxBrony is just wonderful. It finishes off with a more orchestral section that features spoken word taken from W. H. Auden, which wraps it up very nicely. Check it out below!

Artist Training Grounds VII - Day 26

Breaking out and doing something new can indeed be hard to do and as the artist of this piece pointed out it can be all too easy to rely on doing something easy and familiar than doing something hard and new. While yesterday's prompt did pose some problems for you a few of you, you all still managed to turn something in for today, overcoming your frustration in your own way and rising to the challenge! Excellent job everyone!

For today we managed a wide variety of ponies, bringing in 82 ponies to add to the herd, bringing us up to 3690 ponies altogether.

Now it's back to our usual prompt silliness! This next one is inspired by a conversation I had with a friend not too long ago and was reminded of again by a submission we had for yesterday's prompt. Even though our ponies are civilized it's always fun to see them doing horsey things in the show whether it's horse noises or doing something a horse would do in our world. So for today's prompt I thought we touch on our pony's ancient history by having you guys Draw a primitive pony / Draw a pony going back to nature.

As usual you can find our submitter here! Have fun everyone!

Remember, our compiler is up a few hours even after this post goes up so feel free to submit your submission even though this post is up!

Check on after the break for our full gallery!
