Hydra Pulse (Fan Music)

[DaKatphish]

Ahhh yes, the little melody begins at around 17:11 of Season 1 Episode 5 if you're watching the normally circulated youtube videos. You can hear it in the background.

[shadowyoshigamernerd]

>watch the hydra scene

>begin this when twilight says 'i see it, but i don't believe it'

>THE EPIC HAS BEEN DOUBLED.

[CaptainMarese]

GET UP ON THE HYDRA'S BACK

[DaKatphish]

@CaptainMarese OH MY GOD I LOVE THAT GAME!

[TheRPGenius]

This is quite honestly excellent.

[DJelectfire]

It's odd that not only does this track remind me of the game Ratchet and Clank but also makes me think of the Matrix..... especially starting at 0:15

[Leadslinger50mm]

Huh reminds me of ratchet and clank

[Abramus5250]

HAIL HYDRA!! Oh wait, wrong cartoon...

[TJwaffle911]

Should be noted: the show's BGM is written by William Anderson, not Daniel Ingram; Ingram does the songs the characters sing.

[saitodono88]

woah, you got this from the hydra music? i gotta watch that episode again. anyhow, the music's awesome.

[8BitStranger]

This kinda reminds me of portal and half life type stuff. Valve needs to hire you to do the music for their next game.

[WhitenedInk]

Gyarados used Hydro Pulse!

Oh, wait, wrong song...

Hydra used Hydra Pulse!

[SolarEmpire01]

Cool battle-ish song. Remix Genius, rock on lil pony. Yee Haw. ;-)

[LeJourDuJugement]

Cut off one head.

Two more shall take it's place.

HAIL HYDRA!

[Honch777]

Reminds me of NiN. Anyway, great work!

[JPHyperX]

I played that song while I watched the scene with the hydra! It made the whole thing 20% cooler!

[IDidItForTehLulz1]

0:16 to 0:23 sounds like something straight outta Metroid.

[CrayonVlogger]

The synths remind me of classic Ratchet and Clank Background music, which makes this song all the more nostalgic for me.

[alynnidalar]

Sounds like something out of the Matrix, or a really cool old-school videogame boss.

[pate7890]

Added to the Glorious compendium of MLP fan music

[Archimonde259]

Why is this theme so underrated? The Lunar Republic theme totals over 200k views and this has almost ten times less, why?

[19ACE93]

@Sparkz1607 @Stinkfist194 @Ironfungus and @Ankarua

(Yes!) x4 This would work so well in some puzzle-based factory level in Metroid.

[AmfleetII]

Gonna miss you, you clever pony.

[JPHyperX]

Would be Friendship is Magic an adventure game...

This should be the boss-music for that hyrda!!

[AmfleetII]

Command & Conquer: Trixie's Revenge (A Pony Alert 2 Expansion) by Westhoof Studios

[Archimonde259]

@AmfleetII But Yuri is clearly Discord. XD

[thejasoninator]

Sounds like it belongs in a Ratchet & Clank level. Great sound, but the relation to ponies is so tenuous I can't really enjoy it as pony music.

[007ferguson007]

@thejasoninator well it wouldn't really be pony music, would it? it's hydra music

[dutchsct]

Great addition to my MLP playlist :)

[arkantos4dead]

somehow reminds me of the resident evil theme..a bit

[karlizkool350yt]

Well, shivers are running down my back, therefore proving beyond a reasonable doubt that this song is AMAZING! Great job brony!

[Sparkz1607]

Oh my god, this is epic. :D It reminds me of Metroid in the fact that it has mechanical/industrial percussion sounds and a very, very haunting electronic bass line. Like/favorite/subscribe, without hesitation.

[NerdinessIncarnate]

Does anyone else find this music to be scary when sitting in the dark and looking up scary things like Halloween Horror Nights?

[theguywhoannoysme]

Alright, I've been looking and I can't find the sample you expanded on in any of the Hyrda scenes. Is there a specific time in a specific video you can provide, or...?

[Futil1ty]

Red Faction?

[zombiemonkey22]

Is this song Chuck Norris approved? Cuz it certainly sounds like it.

[Stinkfist194]

It reminds me of metroid.

[RavenholmeCP42]

I love this, gives me vibes of Command and Conquer (Circa Tiberian Sun), Half-Life 1/2 and the STALKER games.

Utterly epic track, well done. You'd never think this came from MLP

[samuel7897]

I never say this over used word but, EPIC!

[tails183]

A clever pony you are not.

A genius you are indeed.

[AngelKat58]

I can't hear it.What is it even supposed to sound like?

[AngelKat58]

@AngelKat58 Fixed it :)

[RGamer2009]

This sounds like a Paper Mario Boss on steroids...

AND I LOVE IT!!!

[Onerom4728]

My little pony:The video game-Hydra boss theme

[georgeofnewyork]

Hydra Pulse sounds like something from pokemon

[RazorRaptor9]

When I saw one hydra head forwards and the other 3 backwards, it made me think of a lead singer/dancer and background dancers/singers. Then I pictured the hydra heads doing that and I snorted my drink from laughing.

[ShootingStarz990]

I love your music. I think they should use your soundtracks in season 2. As a matter of fact, i think they should use brony made things during season 2. It'd make all the fans so happy

[TARINunit9]

This boss again?! He was hard enough the first time. And I'll bet his regeneration scales to match my new magi- yes it does, fuck

Oh, that's just perfect, his Poison Breath is now has 15% chance of Instant Death. There goes an hour of level grinding down the drain

[MrRayquazaking]

*Wild Hydra appeared!*

Oh shit wheres my master ball?

[Nukinator]

@MrRayquazaking Wild Hydra Appears!

Son...fetch me my Railway Shishkebaber... *Shishkebab and Railway Rifle combo :3 *

[Nukinator]

@sonicsuper2020 ICWUTUDIDTHAR!

[bbkiller12]

I don't know why this song reminds me of Resident Evil so much.

[alanrich1969]

Eargasm <3

[Ghooostie]

The start for reason reminded me of C&C o_O

<3

[Ghooostie]

@Ghooostie for some*

[airplanenut89]

@Ghooostie Me too man. Got kind of a Red Alert 1 vibe from it myself.

[teqrevisited]

Pony, you magnificent bastard.

[TehFoamy]

The tune sounds exactly like the one from BL1ND JUST1C3 : 1NV3ST1G4T1ON !! I would kill to see a mashup of those two songs, now.

[182crazyK]

This reminds me of a melody from Mass Effect (This mainly, but somehow For the New Lunar Republic and Lower the Moon do as well)

[OfTheTreeFolk]

Seriously, I never would have guessed that a cartoon originally geared toward 5-10 year old girls could possibly end up leading to something this incredible.

[coolcat33333]

@OfTheTreeFolk

That's 'cause it didn't.

[Swordflash4]

@coolcat33333 ?

[DarkAku666]

RED FACTION MUSIC!

[Megavegeta32]

last year I didnt think I would ever be watching and hearing stuff this awesome from my little pony

[sourcreampsycho128]

GET UP ON THE HYDRA'S BACK!

[xXbrokenvoidXx]

It sounds like industrial. I LIKE

[neji667]

Boss:Hydra

Health:3000

Abilities:4 Heads

Engage?

>yes

>no

[Talbron]

Subbed. You're music is amazing and this song convinced to do so.

[Nightsparrow626]

This could almost be Mass Effect music, if you ask me.

Nice work. :)

[Ironfungus]

Very good!

It reminds me a little bit of Metroid, and a little of the Resident Evil movie theme @ 1:58.

[jm96mx]

2 people got hurt by a hydra...

[KhaosBlender]

Epic.

[13finalfantasy13]

I play this during all my hydra battles

[lordoftech]

it would be awesome if someone could let tell me the genre of this music.

(and sub-genres if applicable)

[Chickenkeeper24]

@lordoftech i think it's dubstep or something similar.

[lordoftech]

@Chickenkeeper24 this is definitely not dubstep

[Chickenkeeper24]

@lordoftech sounds a bit like it though. I don't really listen to much dubstep so I'm not exactly sure.

[CptCool2]

@Chickenkeeper24 It's called industrial, and it's been around longer than shitstep.

[Chickenkeeper24]

@CptCool2 ah, thanks.

[trapical]

Awesome song, just one side note.

>Daniel Ingram composes the big musical numbers where the ponies are singing.

>William Anderson composes all the BGM, like the hydra music you mentioned in your description.

The more you know ^_^

[doneehj]

The hydra was one chill guy.

[DarkAku666]

RED FACTION!

[TYofSON]

this is the song that gods fight too, SO MUHTHER FUCKIN EPIC

Bronys keep the ranks strong soon we will rule with a iron hoof!

[HayKaesho]

game designers should take note, this is how boss battle music is done.

[MrDansze]

@HayKaesho

How to make the music for a boss or how to make the music itself boss?

Or how to make boss music for a boss?

[JonnytheAwesomeGuy]

Half Life: Opposing Horse

[RavenholmeCP42]

@JonnytheAwesomeGuy

Gotta agree with you there, sounds dead like music from the first Half-Life and it's spin offs

[Sprcrtrs]

@JonnytheAwesomeGuy Gordon Freepony?

[AmfleetII]

@Sprcrtrs

Gordon Freemane, the One Free Pony!

[dahedgefox]

Awesome music! Keep up the great work!

William Anderson is the man responsible for the hydra music (and all the other background music), while Daniel Ingram composes the songs. Both Mr. Ingram and Mr. Anderson are simply amazing. I cannot imagine MLP:FIM without them. :D

[xceis]

Are you sure you aren't DJ P0N-3?

[SilverPorcupine]

Yes. You flipping are. A Clever Pony.

And/or DJ P0N-3 in disguise.

[Axquirix]

Series 2: We get to see Vinyl Scratch playing one of iamnotacleverpony's pieces of music in a nightclub.

[SSgtM60Kitten]

That awkward moment you realize there's nothing more to download from Clever Pony...

[MarnaxCBRM]

Sound almost like something that would be in Portal.

[UnderscoreSchlagwerk]

Can I use a cut of this in a project? If so, what should I credit you as?

[GOWPanda]

Do like. The name is very appropriate, too!

[zerg066600]

i think of zombie-apocalypse. maybe resident evil? also a bit of ordos. awesome

[Titan2995]

It reminds me so much of music from the first Red Faction.

Excellent Job, brony :D

[kaifurry]

Awesome! Keep this up!

And Luna's Lullaby? I NEED AN ETA NOW.

[iamnotacleverpony]

@kaifurry Working on it. Literally posted a screenie of the new luna song on my devart.

[Drumada]

Excellent, this is another masterpiece. I'm bringing this one to school tomorrow to show everyone I showed Lunar Republic to! Keep up the great work!

[Ewyndall]

And after For The New Lunar Empire, you did it again. You made a song I keep looping and listening to. Considering I'm generally not into this style of music, take this as a compliment of great volume :)

Keep it up brony. For the Brony Brotherhood !

[Whackjood]

Reminds me of the industrial themed stage music in the modern Rocket Knight game. Which is a very good thing.

[Pascilito]

Holy Pony, thats Epic

[SexyMelon]

Bandcamp. Sell music. Make tons of money. NOW!

<3

[infinitydash]

I don't have much to say other than "this is awesome"

[Sephiroth3003]

Sounds like something you'd hear in Mass Effect

[IsonDaya]

@Sephiroth3003 Also a bit portal-ey.

[TheRealSergentSiler]

you, ChainAlgorithm0 and scibot9000 need to team up, it would be a non stop orgy of eargasms in my head holes :3

[Ankarua]

Where "For the Lunar Republic" made me think about Command and Conquer, this almost reminds of of Metroid music. Really well done! I'm going to go back to that episode and listen for those notes now.

[spetnaz93]

this is why i consider this to be a sub-culture instead of just a fandom. bronies go beyond the usual fandom activities and create how vocabularies and musical pieces and even a whole community of their own. kepp on shining, you crazy brony you.

[Titan2995]

@spetnaz93 According To KnowYourMeme, it's evolved into a subculture. I've never seen something sprout up so fast!

[exmruniverse]

@Titan2995 i have, robots have seen everying. including a subculture, and how fast something sprouts up.

[spetnaz93]

@Titan2995 and that it why, as a student of sociology, i so thuroughly study bronies (also, i'm probably going to sound like a total hipster for saying this, but i identified it as a subculture long before know your meme did. just sayin').

[Titan2995]

@spetnaz93 Yeah. It's just one of those things you deduce before it's official. I understand where you are coming from and you are not sounding like a hipster lol. Just looking at the rate it has been rising, you just know it's only a matter of time.

[becausehorse]

@spetnaz93 Keep on shining, you crazy diamonds.

[spetnaz93]

@becausehorse yeah, those should totally shine too!!

[undead432]

I have commented on ED, on your prof and now on your vid, cuz the vids you make blow my mind each time!

KEEP ON BEING AWESOME!

p.s. i have created a playlist especially for your songs. keep on being awesome!

[BronyVids]

YES I love your music so much.

[Kaira90211]

Your mixes are so awesome.

[Kaira90211]

@Kaira90211 I had Lunar republic repeating too.

[NaxtsTheDemon]

Holy hell dude. This is some amazing stuff. I still had the Lunar Republic on repeat and them you blow my mind with this.

Extremely excellent stuff. You are now my favorite person.

[JimRaynorRaider]

OMG! awesome music dude! keep it up.

ps:butchering? you didn't butcher this song dude. is pure epic & Daniel will be proud :)

[VoiceOfTheOrangeFox]

Keep up the excellent work. I love your music!
