Originally titled "Canterlot Dance Party" and planned to be driven by 15.ai voices, this Hearth's Warming song part of the EP Hearth's Warming Stories vol. 1 definitely gives off some warm and cute vibes fitting for depicting a party in Canterlot with snow all around! In the Russian tradition that Skyshard is following, the gift thing from Christmas is actually happening at New Year's, and that's why this EP got released now, as explained in the description on Bandcamp!
Download the EP from Bandcamp here, and find the 3 songs on YouTube through this playlist!

A labor of love started more than a year ago, pony musician Flutter Bully went through every single spotlight music post on EQD since their inception (and plans on going through my "More Pony Music" posts as well), and arranged their favorites into a LOT of playlists of genres! Not only showing dedication, that initiative could help you find your new favorite pony music! It's being actively worked on and updated with every new daily post, too! The database "currently has over 5500 songs, divided into 311 playlists, and is constantly growing".
From Flutter Bully's words:
"I'm digging through the annals of brony music history (including every spotlight post EQD has ever made!) listening to each song, and deciding if I like it or find it high quality. If so, it gets tossed into a playlist based on genre. Currently this database has 311 different genres / playlists, and over 5500 songs in total across all of them. So if someone loves a particular genre, they can just click the associated playlist and let it play! I'm really proud of this, though it's still being worked on, and videos are added on a near-daily basis, so there's almost always something new somewhere! I really hope people can start using this and getting all the music they love in an easily accessible place!"

I think we can chock this up to best knockoff ever. A company over in Indonesia is apparently producing Kirin rice, with Autumn Blaze as the mascot. You can see her on label in their various images. The actual art was originally created by TCN back in 2018. Either someone is a fan of pony, or they just grabbed the first cartoon kirin that popped up on whatever search they used over there.
Get more images below!

Description:
Derpy is a good filly.
Her eyes might not line up right and she can't think too many things at once, but she's still a good filly who always does what Daddy tells her. Until he tells her not to go into the basement under the stairs, at least. He tells her there's a monster down there, and it's all teeth and claws, and it's dangerous.
And then Derpy doesn't do what she's told.
There's a Monster Under the Stairs

Nyancat380's album New Beginnings is out!! From EQG, to Mean Fluttershy, to Pinkie, to Dashie, to Nightmare Moon and more, there is a lot of pony flavors to be savored musically throughout the album, as illustrated by the awesome promo video made by the musician! The medley of music and show scenes/PIRL/animation in it is quite emotional and well-made, I recommend it!
Download the album from Bandcamp here, and check out the promo video embedded below the break!

We have a bunch of background and temporary ponies that haven't gotten nearly enough love, and because of that they don't have quite enough content for a full theme day in their image. Time to celebrate a group of them with a spa day! On January 6th we will be celebrating the following ponies, theme day style:
- Cheerilee
- Minuette
- Berry Punch
- Aloe
- Lotus
You can draw any of them for open art, or send stuff in general. Open art is the best bet though!
Now go! Submit@equestriadaily.com with CHEERILEE AND FRIENDS DAY as the subject followed by what it is, so CHEERILEE AND FRIENDS DAY - OPEN ART for open art.

One of the distinct charms of our community, especially for the Metal afficionados, is to be headbanging to heavy as buck songs about cute little ponies. Here responding to... often unexpected artistic depictions of them, Stallionslaughter is providing a delightful musical expression that you can savor in many ways. For the sheer musical prowess and the delightful fusion of Rock instruments with heavy vocals, for the fun of the lyrics, or because it's actually the kind of art that you fancy... Either way, let's celebrate this amazing and creative fan work, huzzah for Stallionslaughter!

Ever expanding his imagined lore about the Equestria universe of his songs, Night Blaze pays much tribute to the batponies assisting Luna in her Night-related duties in this rework of the aptly named Good Night, and they are not just a few! I highly recommend reading the description to see just how much lore and thought the musician has put behind this grand yet very soothing piece just like the Night! A whole civilization of batponies living on the moon is hard at work each night and they have their own ways of guarding their own dreams! Albeit there is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.
There's a Piano Version that is appended to the song in the video embedded below. Both versions are available for download on the musician's Soundcloud (links in the description).

Hearth's Warming Music: The Seeds of the Past/Luna's Future/Silent Night (Dandelion's Remixes) [Orchestral] / TheTaZe - Hearth's Warming Nostalgia [Lo-fi]
by MakenshiDandelion responded present to a brony's call to make something for Hearth's Warming to share with the community, with 2 re-releases of lovely remixes of fitting show songs, and a remix of Fluttershy/Andrea Libman's Silent Night! That makes 3 new releases for the holiday, and I so love that dedication and brony spirit!! He's not alone, with TheTaZe sharing a lovely new track made "in a few hours" for the occasion of the holiday, that uses pony samples and delivers in her signature style! Hearth's Warming is very warm thanks to ponies and bronies around!

Generation 4 of pony was pretty much the dream for any animation company out there, and especially for a toy company. Having such a crazy popular cartoon in the girls segment just doesn't happen often at all. It has also done a pretty good job of steering budgets toward better kids programming in general over the last decade.
G5 probably has just as much investment. How do you think the initial hype for it will play out? Will everyone that enjoyed the mane 6 flock back and dive in? Or do you think most that watched it have outgrown pony?
