These groups have musical genres that range from classic filk guitar, voice to rave to death metal and everything in between. Though these groups are far from being as popular as the Harry Potter ‘Wizard Rock’ bands became, they are increasing in popularity as they appear at Brony gatherings such as BroNY Con, which is held in New York City four times annually. For example, ‘Beyond her Garden’, originally by Wooden Toaster, has over 40 remixes.Īlthough many of the Bronies that create fan music are individuals who do their recording on a computer or in their own personal studio, there are also groups of Bronies that meet up and are an actual Brony Band. This is only one example of the way that the fans build on each other’s work: improving it, putting their own spin on Pony music, making fansongs of fansongs from a simple idea that one fan had while watching the show. To add even more music into the collective of pony music, other Bronies then took this song and made covers of ‘Luna’.
There is a lot of talent in the fandom, and hearing completely fan-made songs like this make me very proud to be a brony. In this ballad, Odyssey sings as Princess Luna about how she was so lonely, being exiled on the moon, that she eventually had to succumb to the anger and jealousy that turned her into Night Mare Moon. My favourite fan song is ‘Luna (Nightmare Mode)’ by Eurobeat Brony and T. The song, ‘With a Sister’, by MandoPony, was written about this scene, and it was so well thought through that it would have fit right into the episode.įan songs are also based on speculation about events, feelings and experiences that their favorite characters might have done, but that the show didn’t cover. There are songs based on the show, such as a song that was set in the episode ‘Sisterhooves Social’, in which Applejack spoke to Rarity about how being a sister should be. Songs have also been created that tell stories. They can be synthesized or played on instruments of choice – and songs have been done with everything from a drum track to live bagpiping. Pony songs are written about experiences ponies go through, their feelings and their dreams. Some music is theme songs for each character – both vocal and instrumental. Just as Brony musicians make fan tributes to Daniel Ingram’s vocal tracks, they also made new, original music about the My Little Pony world. I just wanted to show how old I was by telling that story. These were the original fan songs, and although My Little Pony has fan songs of its own, the term filk is rarely used nowadays. However, because these were fan songs and not true folk lore, they were called ‘filk’. They would tell tales of valor in song form, similar to folk songs.
