Patreon Celebration - May - Octavia Plays~

I always did love me some Tavi. In a world where all the ponies are hyper colorful with wild manes and tails, she's like a beacon of normalcy that still makes pony look incredibly good.

It's that time of the month once again for patreon madness, and the submissions for the celebration post are in! With how crazy this season schedule is this year, it's going to help more than ever when we run out of episodes earlier than usual. You guys are the best really. Thank you so much for supporting the site! 

If you still have rewards to claim, hit up the EQD Patreon page and send it a message!  It's never too late to claim.

Anyway, celebration time! Go get a ton of Octavia and submissions below!

Music: ShinZm - For My Dreams (feat. AphexAngel) [Rock]

ShinZm released this track as an instrumental a while ago, but it's back and revamped with some super cool vocals from AphexAngel. A pretty powerful rock track about Scootaloo, with a bunch of cycling fan art through the video, the instrumental is thoroughly engaging and energetic, and the lyrics are pretty great too. Give it a look below the break!

Nightly Discussion #1070

Wouldn't it be nice that when you went to sleep at night you could just keep going on with your day? Would sure make your evenings so much more productive!

Evening guys, ready to chat?

BABSCon 2017 Interview: Ashleigh Ball: MLP Actress, Singer, OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh!

I have made no secret my favorite pony of the Mane 6 is Rainbow Dash. While Discord is my favorite character on the show, Dashie was the first pony to capture my attention over seven years ago. And when Ashleigh Ball agreed to sit down for an interview with Equestria Daily you could have knocked me over with a feather.

So it would only make sense to post an interview with Rainbow Dash's voice actress on the day her season 7 episode premiered… in Canada.

After the break, you can see me make a complete fool of myself in front of the actress who plays my favorite pony. Oh discuss Hey Ocean's new album coming out later this year, and her thoughts on a certain movie coming out later this year. Enjoy!

Parental Guidance - A Derpy Evolution?

For those of you who watched the Canadian episode today you might have noticed something quite interesting in the background with a certain bubbly pegasus: could we be seeing the evolution of Derpy?

Check out what I mean after the break and thanks to Zapplebow for the heads up!

Stay away from after the break if you don't want anything spoiled from the episode even though it is just a background element!

Comic: Gathering / Rock Solid / Out Cooled / Reality 52 / Wings of Fire 18 / Star Mares 3.4.10

Taken out of context screen grabs are the best, aren't they? Helps that the DoubleWBrothers are so good at providing scenes like these.

Comics guys, get them all after the break!

Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) #2252

Music: ertrii - My Loyalty [Chillstep]

ertrii normally makes pretty chilled out and relaxing music, but here he's gone a different direction. With a gritty and somewhat darker toned piece featuring some lovely subtle Rainbow Dash vocal chops, it's certainly nice to hear some more variety. The smoothness and melodic goodness is still there, but the dark overtones help differentiate it a lot from most of the artist's previous works. Give it a listen below the break!

Cal note: Followup is coming at 1pm!

Princesses deserve milkshakes from time to time don't you think? Especially when Cadance is paying from the looks of it!
