Brighter than tonight's sunset
Can't mistake your silhouette
Not a sound, nor voice nearby
Your mane illuminates this gloomy sky

Horse Goku, drawn for the most recent episode of Draft Horses, that you should go watch and subscribe to right now! We also drew Rainbow Dash being a waifu, Pinkie Pie spitting bars, and Princess Cadence being overshadowed by Shining Armor's boyband, all while being under siege from Austin Powers. It's a fun time!
It's insane how well Sgap holds up. The standard model got me into music and it still rocks my world a decade later. (also how the fuck has it been on Spotify for 2 years and I just found out?)
Progress is continuing at a comfortable pace. I'm glad I'm not rushing it, and that I don't really
feel the need to. Plus, having so many collaborators on this project is a huge help in that regard. Everything takes as long as it takes, and that's OK. It's not something I'm used to. I typically take things as go go go now now now fast fast fast. It's been a very refreshing and enlightening experience, especially considering how heavy some of the influences are.
I keep wanting to push it further, put more in, dive deeper. But I'm trying to adhere to a few rules. Mostly don't make it reactionary and don't put stuff in there that doesn't fit the context of it being in the MLP universe.
Speaking of, I want to add onto this sort of My Version (MV) headcanon thingy. Idk what to call it yet but it probably needs a name(?). For now I'm sticking with MVUV (My Version UniVerse). I am planning to write fanfiction that takes place in it (I've already started some) with the goal to have them take place either before MLP starts or between the flashbacks and flash forwards of The Last Problem. For EQG I'm going to focus on them being in college, with the exception of one leading up to the actual graduation. All three of these are AJ fics tho so I gotta branch out lol.
I do want to write a fic going into detail about what each of the songs represent in the album. But I'm not sure how to go about doing it the way I want it to be. I want it to feel like an ARG or something idk. I've got time, this will be after the album is done, I think. Or maybe not, maybe it'll go side by side.
Again, I have very low expectations for this album. That being said, one of my biggest regrets in life was deleting my fanfics. I had a decent following and even though they were all pretty shit, cringe, and full of typos, I miss them. My new Fimfiction account has them all linked in the bio. For posterity if nothing else. I'll share that here when it's done I guess.
But yeah.
Thanks to Vylet Pony for the art for pt. 1 (and a new profile pic yippee!)
Brony Song Tournament Semifinals: Unstoppable Horse vs Immovable Object
Lullaby for a Princess and Discord (remix). Two iconic Brony songs. Two competitors that were in the top 3 landslides every single round. Two songs that have even beaten other versions of themselves.
The Equestrian Showcase will take place tomorrow (Saturday 11) at event.pony.town and Twitch at 2PM CST / 8PM GMT.
The event was made for you to have fun and a good time, but the real purpose behind the event is helping pony musicians getting discovered and helping listeners to discover new music!
For that, every musician who is participating has submitted their best songs from 2022 for the showcase, and those will play in a carefully placed order to keep up the energy and genre consistency for the best listening experience.
On the stage screen you will see the artist name, song name, and socials where you can follow and get more from the artist.
Beside the main event, we'll feature 3 whole DJ sets, and at least 2 hours of pure dancing madness under the PVFM radio ^c^
The server will open at 1PM CST / 7PM GMT, an hour before the event start.
So I hope to see you all there and have lots of FUF!
p.s. If you never joined a PT event before, keep in mind this is a separated client from PT, you'll have to register again and your characters from PT will not be there. However you can export them manually from PT. You can do that even before any events.
