Nightly Discussion #82

You know who looks like a badass really easily? Twilight Sparkle.  I don't even know why.  She just pulls it off.  I could see her cosplaying as all sorts of things if Ponyville had comic conventions. 

What do you want to see her cosplay as?

Or discuss whatever below.

Music of the Day #362

I like to imagine this is actually what Luna does in her free time. Professional bagpipe player.

And below the break, join her in musical selections based on whatever arrived in the box today.

Charity Album - Academy of Booty

Yeah, the cover looks a little... weird, and yes, the songs follow suit, but Pinkamena Party (the alter ego of Balloon Party) has come once again with another mix of tracks from a whole boatload of fandom musicians, 62 in all.

All proceeds will go toward CLIC Cargent for children with cancer.  If you want in, head on down below for the press release or check it out here.

Story: Worth It

[Romance]

Author: Pascoite

Description: Princess Celestia sends Twilight Sparkle a letter, asking the same question she always does. Maybe a visit from Spike will prompt her to give an answer at last.

Wallpaper Compilation #125

Derpy: Traveling the galaxy delivering mail. That wallpaper reminds me of the old Crimson Skies game on Xbox for some reason.  They really need to revive that concept. 

Anyway, get some wallpapers.  Click the source links for the full size versions as always.

Spotlight Music: Highland Thunder / Release the Breeze

What do you call a song with deep electronic back beats and backpipes in the front? Is that it's own genre?

Get that in the first slot, a new Shoegaze vocal track in the second from Freewave, and Rainbow Dash is 2nd best pony on tuesday.

1.) Bagpipe Brony - Highland Thunder (Instrumental - Bag Pipes)
2.) Freewave (ft Bloo) - Release the Breeze (Vocal - Shoegaze)

Poll Results: How Much Money Have You Spent on Pony Merchandise?

I honestly wasn't expecting so many to not have any pony merch at all.  Not even a Funko figure? You guys are slackin'!

I'm probably in that $100-300 range at this point.  Between my giant collection on Comixology and SDCC Exclusives, it adds up quick.

Next poll is the episode battle, so go do that!

Drawfriend Stuff #1260

I bounce between these two so often.  Some days Luna is the best, other days Celestia is the best.  It's really all based on fan art. You guys always do such a good job at making Celestia look epic.

And then there was Luna and her socks...

Anyway, get some art before this gets weird.

Get some updates below!

PMV: You Can Shine

We had your daily dose of ridiculous PMV earlier, now lets get a serious one going, or at least normal one.  Head on down below the break to check it out!

Adagio Dazzle in Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks - Voiced by Kazumi Evans

Equestria Girls top dog Ishi Rudell revealed this one over on Twitter.  If you like the singing voice of both Rarity and Luna, expect something in a similiar vain with Adiago Dazzle, as Kazumi Evans is providing her vocal talents for the role. 

We have a little over a month before the movie official hits theaters. You can get the full listing over here.

Thanks to Andrew for the heads up! 

Midnight Mares Releasing Resin Merchandise, With Plushies and Resin Figures

That animation teaser released by Duo Cartoonist about a week ago apparently points toward a project with it's very own merch line.  Midnight Maresmay have a bit of work ahead of it before it releases, but that doesn't mean teasers aren't already popping up.

They also dropped a short press release, noting that each of these will have glow in the dark painted embroidery.  If you like the series once it releases, it might be a good way to support it.

Head on down below the break for a bunch more images on what they have planned.

EPISODE BATTLE Event Begins!

With season four long past and the hype fading on it, it's time to battle it out across our wide library of pony episodes, and decide on which you all like most of all!

This event will happen in sets of 12 13, with the winners of each category moving on to a final set of polls in the end.  Which episode is going to rock the competition? Hit the side bar up every few days and vote.

Today we have the best episode of the first half of season one up for grabs.  Go get it over there -->

Ridiculous Seizure Warning PMV: 『ℙ♏V』 | •?((¯°·._.•βℓ๏ώ3-βℓ๏ώhąяď•._.·°¯))؟•

If you can read the title, you can probably watch this without dying.  Coming from their stellar perfomance in the earlier βℓ๏ώ3 PMVs, the team is back with another... whatever this is.  Expect Micheal Bay level effect usage, 12 year old first time video maker Youtube transitions, fat ponies, elevator ponies, and whatever else DarkHoofStudios is known for.  There is almost a sick level of skill mixed in with the madness.  I think.  Or something.

Get it below.  Thanks to everyone that sent it. 

Dessolation of Archie Charity Album Released

A reminder for those that didn't tune into the event yesterday, the big multi-musician charity album Dessolation of Archie has officially dropped over on Bandcamp.  Lots of big names joined in on the project, from Silva Hound to The Living Tombstone.  I know how much you guys freak out when they release stuff.

Now go get it over here!

BronyDoc Episode 5 - The Carney's Honeymoon at BronyCon

The next episode of BronyDoc was released for those funding the extended scenes over on Kickstarter.  This one is a little short, but it's fun anyway.  Get it below!

Thanks to Robert for sending it. 

Nightly Roundup #1036

I bet they'd do this if one of the comic artists was a Dark Souls fan.  That's one thing I love about the comics, so many references.

Roundup time! Go community it up below.
