My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic - Art of the Dress - Rock Band 3 custom song

[MrDude6670]

lol rarity singing. GENIUS

[Tiltkid]

Have there been any more updates from Hasbro/Harmonix concerning bringing these to RBN? Also, is there anything that you're working at the moment?

[TrotPilgrim]

@Tiltkid I haven't tried to contact Hasbro in a while. Daniel Ingram said that he would make sure Hasbro is aware of the demand, but he's not sure if Hasbro's interested either. At the moment I'm composing the soundtrack for My Little Investigations.

[BuzzWyl]

3:35 there, now you know

[namenotfound404error]

lol pinkie on drums

[pokemonmshaw]

That was amazing! Made me love Rock Band more than I already have! But can you plz re-upload the song+instructions to Mediafire now that Megaupload is down?

[restitution69]

Found these from the Winter Wrap up vid over on My Little Brony, definitely subbed!

[LydRose6696]

Rock Band just got 20% cooler :)

[misheardlyricsman65]

1.now i can die happy

2.when rarity fainted the singer did a stage dive lol it sounded like she hit the ground to

[Forgivins1n]

That's really great how there's a drum fill right after: "20% cooler."

[TheRandomYoYo]

god if they actually made a band in which the girls would try to act and dress something close tot the characters... i'd definitly go to their concerts!

[dewey101597]

Why is Rarity an old woman ._.

[Luy22]

Pinkie fucking rocks drums.

[Seph123ff7]

I'm really hoping Ingram can get the OK to upload these onto Rock Band!

[sublimex27]

I think TrotPilgrim predicted the future by making Rarity wear that red brooch.

[zombiekiller938]

They all look extremely slutty

[Tord176]

She's totally lip syncing...

[trogdor1oh1]

Bro for the "20% cooler" bit you gotta make that an Overdrive section

[TrotPilgrim]

@trogdor1oh1 Of course.

[Lucario1121]

If worst case scenaro we need a MIDI How the heck we get that on a Xbox

[superjel6]

Good :D Drum could perhaps use some more variation, as more sounds are heard as well. But still you do epic work!

[JaimeGarridoHiggs]

NICE!! Applejack's on the bass

[KillersCasket]

@TrotPilgrim You're right on one account, but luckygirl22100 is right. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic wasn't a Hasbro original. They do own, fund, and hire, but the the true creator of the show is Lauren Faust. This show is basically based off of Lauren's childhood idea, so if they want to add stuff or make creative changes, they have to consult Lauren before they do anything.

[TrotPilgrim]

@KillersCasket That's not entirely true. Lauren originally wanted to create a TV show based on her Milky Way Galaxy Girls project, but they hired her to work on My Little Pony instead, because they needed to reimagine their old brands for their new channel, The Hub. If they hadn't hired Lauren to work on it they would've hired someone else. All the decisions Lauren made had to be approved by Hasbro first, as she stated in her interview with Equestria Daily.

[Lucario1121]

@KillersCasket It is O_O the more you know :)

[TheArbitator]

Seriously, dude, guy, man who made these beautiful, amazing things. I love you. I have been playing rock band since it's debut, and now you have given me the opportunity to possibly mix that and my other favorite thing, ponies. If I ever see you in real life, I'm either buying you dinner or love-raping you.

[TrotPilgrim]

@TheArbitator Uh... I choose dinner if you don't mind.

[haloreachmon]

suprized myself with my nowledge of this song

[noisemaker111]

Brb, need rock band 3.

[crazyweegeeman]

Meanwhile at the brony concert...

[nhydock]

Oh gosh! This is amazing! The animation syncing is great and the characters are all dressed like their pony counterparts. I'm loving this!

[TopGearSH]

Is it bad that I got rather excited when I remembered the "20% cooler" line was actually still during the song, so would be included on the vocals here? >__>

[jarrettgabe]

This song is definitely 20% cooler than the rest of them.

[sidwerd1hater]

"Double aswesome"?

The game obviously misspelled "rainbow".

[md53473]

why does Rarity look like Michael Jackson?!?!

[mewbra123]

LOL At the end, when you hear the "THUMP" noise, the singer jumps into the crowd xD

[extremefrisbee]

Does anyone know who (pony or actress) is singing the second line in the last section?

[hellazteka]

@extremefrisbee It's Rarity with a tired voice, i guess it was to express how worn out she was after making all those dresses... she's voiced by Kasumi Evans on the songs

[chaosky87]

I would download the crap out of these songs 8| Awesome job!

[ClaudiaDonovanClone]

You band's logo is the Unicorn right?

[travics77]

Very sad right now because of my lack of Rock Pony Band u.u

[jfoxfan]

Argh! just tighten up the gap between the two parts! or blend them in! I'm so sorry if I sound like one of them asking Rarity to make a dress.. but i just love this song too much to except it like that!! Please, it would be perfect for me. Again, really sorry if I'm annoying you.

[augginator123]

"french haute couture please"

wait.. so in the MLP universe there's a france??

Fillydelphia, Canterlot, Ponyville, Cloudsdale, Appleloosa, and.. france?

[dangaertner7]

Harmonix MUST release these songs on Rock Band

[abc123unmegrrl]

i like how at the end, Rarity takes a stage dive and is immediately back on stage

[Mariofan800]

The only song I would ever buy at the RB network...

[alecandmattgeil]

:tswant:

[JsKingBoo]

Rarity: Singer

Dashie: Guitarist

AJ: Guitarist

Pinkie:  Drummer

:D

[SNIPERGUY9294]

I never noticed the drum fill at 3:56 before. Yeesh, that looks hard (but then again I suck at drums XD).

[tkayube]

Watching this video makes me think there needs to be some sort of MLP concert, with all the voice actresses actually singing the songs live. It would be awesome.

[cyborgste]

omg I will buy rock band 3 to play this if it comes to their stores!

[Aspenshadow721]

I wasn't expecting the drum part to be that difficult.

[lisamariefan]

An impressive attention to detail you have.

[ZoahTheNinja]

Another fine moment of "Shut up and take my money!"

[SNIPERGUY9294]

The stage dive at the end was hilarious. XD

[ManuelTFox]

WHY CAN'T I BLOODY FAVORITE THIS FOREVER?!

[Goldenscorpony]

I think it could make it on the actual Rock Band Store... You just gotta believe!

[TrotPilgrim]

@Goldenscorpony I'm a whole lot more optimistic now than I was when I first uploaded these. That was before Equestria Girls was released, and we didn't really know what Hasbro thought about our particular demographic. Lately, though, Hasbro has been super awesome to us. They're giving us shoutouts, they let us sell custom merch, they don't take videos off of youtube... I honestly didn't think a big company like that could be so cool.

[schecter66]

@TrotPilgrim hasbro and bronies both have bro in them. <3

[luckygirl22100]

@TrotPilgrim That's true, but I heard from my sis that hasbro diden't make the new my little pony, it was someone else's idea and the told hasbro, I don't nkow anythign about the rights and etc.

[TrotPilgrim]

@luckygirl22100 That's not really accurate to say. They own the show, they fund the show, they choose who to hire to work on the show, and they have the final say in any of the decisions the production team makes. Without Hasbro the show couldn't have been made.

[luckygirl22100]

they*

[TechnoBronie]

I like how you dress the characters to make them look like the ponies styles Awesome job. ;}

[sporedoutofmymind]

I just noticed how you scripted each character to say their corresponding lines in the middle. VERY nice!

[Zuxtron]

This song actually looks really fun on drums...

Thumbs up if you would actually pay for this!

[clintma]

If it does go up on RBN, I hope its free.

[omglolwtfmudkips]

@clintma

It probably will be free...hopefully.

[TrotPilgrim]

@omglolwtfmudkips It actually can't be free. There's no option to make songs free when you submit them to the Rock Band Network. It doesn't cost anything to submit a song to the RBN, so Harmonix makes all their RBN money from sales.

[NightxAssassin1107]

Listen to those fans cheer!

[Kal061606]

Can you not add overdrive?

[MrFrankCalzone]

3:08

ONE SYLLABLE is pitch controlled, while the rest are talky. xD

[CSDGames]

i would fucking to get this or rock band!!!

[rockbandrocker122]

Can you please post the Links for these songs?

[TyphFerdinand]

"It needs to be about 20% cooler", the best part in vocal

[MegaSpaceEagle]

Everybody always wanted to know how the ponies will look human & well here you go right here in this video!

[HevvyMettlRokkr]

You're video's fine. It's just the whole chart has gotta be about 20% cooler.

[Zuxtron]

I would totally buy this if it was actually released on RBN.

[Ciscoql]

at the start of 00:15, isn't there a background bass line being played?

[raina2224]

I love the bass especially in the second part

[stupidhead1212]

LOL Look at how the middle singer Relates to rarity.... look at the colors of the girls clothes.... Epic Match win :D

[InvaderKinz97]

i love how all the characters in the background are dress like the ponies :3

[SuperNintendoCrew21]

@InvaderKinz97 The singer looks like Rarity too

[UnderscoreSchlagwerk]

The stage dive at the end is perfect!

[milenium2500]

Because playing this with friends is just what you wanted to do :D

[kikai74]

It says lolz in the URL :D

[frogb00ts]

Whoa, is Rarity a trap? That's so amazing

[AlabamaSoldier]

Rock Band 3 just got 20% cooler.

[SuperXdrake]

very nice map, very impressive

[dragonbone79]

o.o Must. Get. Rockband 3 now. Also, that's epic the way you make your characters look like the MLP gang.

[lordofthesayians]

is it possible to download both of the songs on to guitar hero?

[Doomwad765]

... Kinda makes me wish I had a current generation system so I could have this.

[MegaZZ69]

I KNEW IT!

I thought I was going insane since I thought someone would cover songs of MLP into music gaming.

You earned my vote.

[katarinafil]

...You, sir. Are my hero now

[Bobman32x]

officially throwing in my support for Hasbro to give the rights and stems for Rock band Network. And get them to the PS3 post haste!

[therealcamdon]

Yo TrotPilgrim please kill yourself, thanks in advance.

[CamisadoRush]

@therealcamdon lol umad bro?

[therealcamdon]

@CamisadoRush You kill yourself too please, tia.

[MegaZZ69]

@therealcamdon .........ignore it.

[ITPhenom]

Hey, you don't suppose you could send me the mini's and oggs and what not?

[Sum1stio]

The dive at the end was so uncalled for and i can't stop laughing about it. I'd like to think no one caught her and she just busted her ass.

[MST3Kbot]

3:58

I agree with the small bar, it is indeed triple awesome.

[Dethonator]

Pretty awesome to see anyone trying the Hard Rock/metal version of the song. Props to anyone that can play the guitar part.

[About4Ducks]

OMFG THAT BAND

[sexyapplejack102]

Rarity=singer

Applejack=guitar

RainbowDash=bass

PinkiePie=drums.

GIVE ME TICKETS TO THIS SHOW!!!!

[solouko]

@sexyapplejack102

Twilight Sparkle is the keyboard player hidden off stage that's been with the band from the begining but has never been shown, like Michael Kenney of Iron Maiden. She's the female version of jorden Rudess (AKA: the Wizzard). Not that I'm saying this is the pony dream theather, I dont think Rarity is canadian, but pinky as the pony Mike Portnoy... hell YES!

[PharaohGlaga]

Omigosh! I can't believe Pinkie Pie is the drummer. XD YEAH!

[TheDoomAlpha]

Excuse me, I need to go buy an X-Box so I can chart "Cutie Mark Crusaders" before you get to it.

[ticklekitten]

That was as awesome as soaring past lightning

[NinesTempest]

Holy shit the characters

Pinkie Pie is bess drummer

[RomanLettore]

I love how she "faints" into the audience at the end.

[Kishmond]

Haha, I just noticed the players themed like the cast.

[nooful]

rarity singer XD

[vivimage2000]

Just shut up and either a.) Take my money or b.) Tell us how you did that!!!

[keiyakins]

"Never stressed", not "never stress"...

[RBLXTerrorking]

Takeallmymoney.jpg

Seriously, Hasbro would make so much by approving these songs and I'd be happy forever. 

[keiyakins]

WHY must you taunt us with these ;_;

[KilobyteBrain]

On the off chance that Hasbro approves them, do you think you could still put them up for download as Frets on Fire tracks or something? The Wii no longer has RBN support, just Harmonix's own DLC.

[TrotPilgrim]

@KilobyteBrain I don't think Hasbro would let that happen.

[AQuickAlias]

@KilobyteBrain You're a Wii RB brony too? I thought I was the only one! (You should add me, what's your friend code? I'll find mine soon.) Anyway, yes, a Frets on Fire release would be absolutely fantastic, seeing as it's a lot easier for the people like myself who have FoF but no 360 (not to mention cheaper... I'd prefer not to have to buy a completely new console to play pony songs...)

@TrotPilgrim Hasbro's been fine with the fan involvement for the series thus far, why would they stop now?

[TrotPilgrim]

Because I want to get the songs on the Rock Band Network. If somehow pigs were to fly and I were hired to author these songs for the Rock Band Network then it wouldn't be fan content anymore, it would be official content, and giving it away for free would be copyright infringement.

I feel silly trying to explain it because it's so unlikely that it'll ever happen.

[AQuickAlias]

@TrotPilgrim No no, that makes sense. I assume you've contacted Hasbro and/or Daniel Ingram about licensing? As a Wii owner who never really had full access to RBN content anyway (and who is seriously bummed about missing out on RBN 2.0 so far), I don't know the whole process for getting a custom song into playtesting and peer review, but as long as you're consistently moving forward with all of this (or at least attempting to), it's very possible this could actually come to fruition... Awesome.

[TrotPilgrim]

@AQuickAlias I wouldn't hold your breath. I haven't made contact with anyone yet, but I've been asking around. It doesn't help that I'm not affiliated with Harmonix, or any other company for that matter. The creators have been great about responding to fans, but the rights holders are a different beast entirely. My guess is that they wouldn't be interested because Rock Band isn't so popular with their target demographic.

[AQuickAlias]

@TrotPilgrim That's probably true. It sounds to me like it all depends on a few arbitrary, unrelated factors: Does Hasbro realize a large part of their demographic for MLPFiM is not what they originally thought, and if so, would they alter their business strategies to make more money off the franchise? (read: approach HMX about putting songs into RB3 as official DLC) And conversely, would HMX approve your MLP content for RBN if Hasbro/Ingram okays it? Basically, who's holding all the cards here?

[AQuickAlias]

@AQuickAlias And wouldn't Hasbro and HMX both benefit from MLP songs in RBN? For relatively little work (especially on Hasbro's part), they could make a quick and easy profit. HMX gets money from each sale automatically, and Hasbro earns some portion of it, plus it spreads the MLP brand to a new demographic... free advertising? Who would turn this down? (Also, if you want to continue this conversation but don't want it to clog up your video page, I'm cool with moving to channel comments or PMs.)

[EuroMIX2]

@AQuickAlias

I hate to butt in, but I'm also Wii brony, however my poison is Guitar Hero. On the off-chance you happen to have it, would you be interested in adding me? I have just over 400 songs, so I have plenty to work with. I also own RB3, but never play it for various reasons.

If not, never mind and I'm sorry to have bothered you.

[sayhitoyourmom]

hahaha the characters

I can't
