Makkon vs Not a Clever Pony - Lunar Republic

[Luna367ns]

Whoa! THIS IS AWESOME

[UEGIlF3AR]

Makkon! Is it okay if I do a compleatley different song but have the same name?

[makkon06]

@UEGIlF3AR I didn't coin the name, NotACleverPony did. But there's plenty of songs that go by this name, so sure.

[nihilumphobic]

whats all this lunar republic solar empire nonsense going on?

[biglulus]

@nihilumphobic You must be new here.

[nihilumphobic]

@biglulus yes pretty much now pls explain!

[biglulus]

@nihilumphobic It's just some playful fun stuff.

[shadowninja569]

@nihilumphobic it all started with this[/watch?v=sf0tYs5U5RI&feat­ure=related]notacleverpony suddenly had an obsessive idea about Luna revolting against Celestia an composed that piece of music, then bronies who feel that Celestia is a Tyrant started to band together[/watch?v=AqPmCq9zNvI&­feature=related] the names Solar Empire and New Lunar Republic stem from Stars Wars; some are are siding with Discord and started a"cult for chaos" as a member of TNLR negotiations should be made first(continued)

[shadowninja569]

@nihilumphobic continued mostly TNLR consist of bronies that are major fans of luna, but there more celestial empires claims ponys are most superior race in equestria, the new lunar republic supports all races of equestria ponies, diamond dogs, griffons,breezies (small fairy like ponys), flutter ponies and seaponies. most of these races are and secluded not seen in mlp fim refer to previous mlp generations.well join TNLR /watch?v=kPjVCIX5Fvs&list=PL58­AAA452C3F97693&index=102&featu­re=plpp_video

[Mbjornas]

Is that picture on a shirt somewhere? Cause I'd totally buy it.

[MrShinigami01]

Hey makkon.You dont mind if i take this picture and lil edit it in photoshop?

[makkon06]

@MrShinigami01 Go for it! :)

[EdruleanXXXIV]

So that's where Islam originated. Mohammad was a brony and Luna-lover. It's now Canon.

[TheKwirk]

After 30 minutes of non-stop catgroove (watch Twilight Sparkle.mp4), this is very refreshing.

[TheKwirk]

If my fanfic gets written, it'll be a fanfic based on a song based on a TV Show based on a toy based on a mammal.

[BoxMan4Alexandra]

I just recieved my new custom T-shirt with Luna on the front side and some picture like this on the backside with a text The New Lunar Republic. It's awesome!

[ThundahNord]

Sheet music needed. That is all.

[ArcanineKing]

5 Celestia Drones dislike this song.

[WhitenedInk]

Um... oh my...

This has landed itself on the "EPICOSITY" music playlist.

[DarthEquus]

I find a slight 80's vibe to this. And that's a good thing: it was one of the greatest decades music-wise. But even without the comparison, the composition is outstanding.

[IgnusDementus]

i find this song to be fabulous

[SpoonTheAmazing]

Just stumbled across this while searching Command and Conquer songs.

Glad i did.

This is great :)

[Raven46Poland]

@LlwynOfTheGrove Omg you're brilliant. o.O

[LlwynOfTheGrove]

@Raven46Poland I remember someone suggesting doing that on 2 deadmau5 songs, so when I think it'll work, I try it. And I'm glad you replied because I didn't realize youtube copied that comment 3 times o.e I hate it when that happens..

[PaulVB6]

Oh...my....god. this is beutiful!! thank you for making this remix!!!!

[ThePhantomOverlord]

The original track has a feeling of power to it, a feeling of dedication to one's ideals, one's goals. But this version of the song has more morose overtones to it, showing the tragedy of war, and the trail it leaves.

[Jormazzz]

Video not added. You have reached 200 videos in this playlist, the maximum number permitted. FFFFFudge, i guess i need to make a 2nd playlist D:

[RbugMLP]

Used this song in a video. I posted the video as a response.

[Lexx777]

Bronyes are amongst the most talented people :D

[ApertureCity]

This is VALVe quality. Absolutely superb. You are very talented sir. Please, PLEASE make more.

[CptCool2]

@ApertureCity Lol, valve quality...

[ThespusGrimm]

is there an album in the making or has one been released? I just found out about your work, if there isn't you should make one

[makkon06]

@ThespusGrimm I'm currently working on one, I'll send out a bulletin/video when it's done linking to it. :)

[Tohob]

warning - this comment is not related to the song --- that link in the description, to the font. thank you. i have been looking for a good site where you can search for fonts by their style instead of pulling up a giant list or just searching alphabetically.

[makkon06]

@Tohob No problem! Glad it helped :)

And no worries about your comment being off-topic, it's mostly the roleplaying comments I'm worried because they get a lot of responses (I mean a lot) and really clutter things up.

[fade2BLACK2051]

I recently listened to "The Astronomical Astronomer's Guide to All Things Astronomy" (My favorite PPS song), and i decided I'd heck you out. I searched your name, and this was the first result. 45 seconds into the song, I have subscribed, and have already clicked the mp3 link. Thank you my good sir.

Thank you indeed.

[xearo120]

Welcome to the New Lunar Republic Espionage Service's Theme Song!

[SonicGold34]

I was eating a sub sandwich while listening to this on my ipod... was the most epic sub sandwich i ever had.

[katarjin]

Makkon makes me think of Homeworld 2 and Makaan's badass voice... ANYWAYS im loving this song

[OneWhoHatesToSleep]

Oh, look at that. Re-converted to the lunar republic. Thanks Makkon!

[123vonreich1]

ALL HAIL THE NEW LUNAR REPUBLIC

[1812ARTHUR]

4 people like rock XD

[S1ack3rB0y13]

You need to make this picture a t-shirt design.

[raino457]

@S1ack3rB0y13 i would totally wear this on my t-shirt ! ill take 10 now !

[TheWarriorpony]

why are bronies so extremly talented and creative? well i still love it becouse i have something i can listen to becouse i´m pegasis too

[itsregal]

...This song would be at least 20% cooler if someone took this mix and did a full symphonic of it. <3

[ateck5]

this song is going to be so awesomeeee, wait it is already 20% cooler :)

[CaptainFluffatun]

Only now did I just realize the full awesome of Makkon's art, here.

[theguywhoannoysme]

All this music should be used to promote the show in some way.

[EpicZantetsuken]

someday, years from now, i'll listen to songs like this again and be once again floored by the absolute majesty of this fandom. the things we've made, the heights we've reached, i can't imagine a world without them, and i can't imagine a future where such creations have been surpassed by any but those who stand here already. we'll look back upon these old monuments of brony achievement and reminisce like old heroes, veterans, trailblazers of the golden age of the internet. Makkon, i solute you.

[Amelia2050]

I'm writing right now, and the blinking of the line that marks your place is perfectly in sync with this music . . .

[TheSonic10160]

That kinda sounds like Farcry 2 but better

[NEREVAR117]

I love the pickup beat that starts at 1:45. Masterfully done, sir.

[Somethingwicked100]

I miss NotacleverPony :(

[ArcaneArts]

@Chase1609 The Derp Card-Wins any discussion between bronies. :p

[ArcaneArts]

@Chase1609 Oh come now, she's clearly the one with the most common sense out of all the ponies in Equestria, maybe barring Big Macintosh. The other two have the power, but she's got the clear sense to lead the principality into a brighter future. I see a lot of pluses to it, and she already handles a lot ofmajor issues in the kingdom. Think of all the pies and muffins that could be spared if we let her negotiate and handle a lot of Equestria's issues.

[ArcaneArts]

@Chase1609 Don't you think a comprimise can be reached between Celestia and Luna for the good of Equestria, especially if you threw in Twilight as a mediator between the two?

I mean, if not, then hell, all glory to the Lunar Republic, but I think we can avoid that.

I mean, think of how many apple pies we'd lose in a war. Delicious, warm, gooey pies! What about that ragic loss?! :p

[Nt0e0hB]

Medic Bronies standing by!

[yahtzeeman12]

Must know plugins/samples used. I don't even fucking care if it's incompatible with FL Studio. I'LL MAKE IT COMPATIBLE.

[makkon06]

@yahtzeeman12 Kontakt is the VST, it's compatible with FLstudio. However the VST only serves as a house for sound libraries.

The sound libraries I used in this are Symphobia 1 and Project Sam Truestrike 1 and 2. I'd like to see what you make, keep in touch! You might find our site useful for musical feedback and community, it's mylittleremix (with a dot and com at the end, of course).

[yahtzeeman12]

@makkon06 I already got Kontakt 4 so I'll try and get those libraries. I'm working on remakes of the original show BGM to sound almost Hans Zimmer-epic, and I could definitely use these things (London Orchestral was somewhat of a disappointment but meh)

I kind-of doubt you bought these, considering their outrageous prices. If I can't find good torrents I'm stuck with Edirol and London. .m.

[killer26x]

New Lunar Republic is best republic.

[Erik24351]

I imagine this song being played at the option screen of some epic war-related video game.

[Alondro77]

You Lunar rebel scum shall never defeat the mighty Empress Celestia! We've nearly completed construction of the ultimate weapon: The Death Sun! With this gigantic battlestation, all the galaxy will belong the great Solar Mare! >:D

[Mordecai199]

@Alondro77 To battle, foul Sun-worshipper!

[Alondro77]

@Mordecai199 IMMA FIRIN MAH SUN-POWERED LAZAR!!! BLAHHHHH!!!

[forceswerwolf]

last day, a friend and i was listening music in a car and i told him give me the adapter - so he did and i plugged it into my psp and played this song. he said: "it's pretty good! i like it! is it hans zimmer? sounds like hans zimmer!"

and i said. nope its makkon and explained what it is. his face: wut

i thought i share that with you :3

[makkon06]

@forceswerwolf This put a smile on my face :)

[Annihilator27]

@makkon06 Hah, Your weak...*Man Tears*

[Ismalith]

@forceswerwolf

Jes now while you said it, it sounds really a bit like hans zimmer.

[coolguytw]

Title: The War for Equestria: The New Lunar Republic

Director: Steven Spielberg

Trailer theme: THIS, god damn it.

SOMEONE DO IT NOW.

[clamz94]

@coolguytw thumbs up for my favorite director

[SuperDesmond12]

@coolguytw so you whant this to be a movie of this

[csunday95]

How is makkon even pronounced? make-on? Mack-on?

[makkon06]

@csunday95 Pronounced as Mah-KON'. Check out my interview by red-letter media (part one) and you can hear me say how it's pronounced. :)

[FromHablit]

Wait wait wait wait wait... New Lunar Republic..

Moon and star.

Oh my god, Luna's the Neravine.

[Sonar009]

A couple months back, this was my first exposure to Pony Music not directly from the show.

Thank you.

[Vaxcelor]

Makkon, you're a wizard.

[parasojaDOT]

@Vaxcelor I think you mean country music singer

[TheFreemanVids]

@parasojaDOT

Why not both?

[CrayonVlogger]

@zapdos327 Except that Celestia is a tyrant.

[DaKatphish]

@CrayonVlogger Source?

[CrayonVlogger]

@DaKatphish lol, don't take it seriously. This isn't canon, it's fanon, and in the fanon Celestia is widely regarded as a simple troll or a tyrant. This is based off the canon (but clearly wasn't truly intended) because of the fact Celestia sent her sister to the moon instead of being fair.

[Erik24351]

For buck's sake guys, it's just a song.

[makkon06]

@Erik24351 I KNOW, FREAKING SERIOUSLY YOU GUYS

[PelottavaPontsoFin]

@Erik24351 I know, but listen to it. It's so amazing!

[Erik24351]

@PelottavaPontsoFin Oh, the pointless arguing didn't keep me from doing so, brah B]

[arnoldrimmerful]

Yeah! Now put a donk on it!

[LULULULULUCAWCAWCAWC]

We need jumpstyle version of this.

[Lex12021]

I thought it would sound cool, mixing this with the vocal version by Miu, So i did it. I'm pretty happy about the result /watch?v=wG4gguJ2J_Q

[DaKatphish]

whats teh song that appears in teh death battle remastered thing?

[neoman289151]

Doesn't the new lunar republic kinda relate to new world order?...

(Sorry for bringing Illuminati crap into this, I'm not even sure if I believe in it, but the similarity of the 2 strikes me as odd.)

[pvtread]

@neoman289151 thats what it is in a way, think about it, one regime being overthrown by another more fanatical one, in all honesty i for one stand firmly behind the anti comunist party, and support the empire as a whole, i take no sides and declare myself a nutral, i support only the new equestria national anthem for those who havent heard it i suggjest you listen and soon youl follow me, down with governments that only think of the people as mere pawns in a game

[Cavouku]

I can't be the only one thinking Lunar Republic = Assassin's, Celestial Empire = Templars, right? Because I want this to be a thing. I really do.

[Cavouku]

@Cavouku Assassins*... I know, I know, I made a post to correct a misplaced apostrophe, but I'd rather waste my own time than someone else's, and let's face it, someone was gonna point that out. For relevance; I love how foreboding the Lunar Republic songs all are. Makes you think something's just BOUND to happen... soon...

[DesuOperator]

Join the revolution.... or end it. Rise against the powers that be.... or battle alongside them. Become a shadow of the night... or a beacon of light.

Either way, be thrust into a fully destructible, open world environment. Wield Equestrian weapons such as the Pinkie Pie Launcher & the Parasprite MG.

Battle as a Pegasus, unicorn, or an earth pony in famous lands such as Appleloosa, Ponyville, Canterlot & Fillydelphia in a war for Equestria.

EA & Dice present:

My Little Pony: The Shadow War

[RuneSpyro007]

@DesuOperator

ALL OF MY YES

FUND IT

*throwing money at the screen*

[eeek143]

@DesuOperator if this doesnt get funded, steve jobs died in vain

[PelottavaPontsoFin]

@DesuOperator Someone make this into a Battlefield mod!

[WritersBlah]

@DesuOperator Want. NAOW.

[Riffingtons]

@DesuOperator This is probably the one game idea where "fully destructible" wouldn't be a selling point for me. About the only building I'd feel comfortable destroying is Silver Spoon's house.

[1pieceisdareasoniliv]

@Riffingtons Well, maybe just Diamond Tiara. I think Silver Spoon's alright after Family Appreciation Day.

[Archimonde259]

@DesuOperator Does a killstreak award an Orbital Friendship Cannon blast? Or better, a Friendship Nuke?

[ramboo189]

@DesuOperator if they made that a real thing id walk into gamestop yelling ''SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY''

[Alondro77]

@DesuOperator The Shadow War? I'm rooting for the Vorlons. ;3

[altairvsdante]

@DesuOperator WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS?

[xxJorgexxOconxx]

@DesuOperator SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

[ZombieZephyr]

@DesuOperator Mind if I quote you to make a trailer in Flash? <_<

[DesuOperator]

@ZombieZephyr Go ahead brony!

[TheDjgamer24]

@DesuOperator I WANNA PLAY!! I WANNA PLAY!! I WANNA PLAY!! *finds out its not in production* damn you EA!!..................

[namelesslol]

@DesuOperator fillydelphia lol

[Merc261]

@DesuOperator I cry myself to sleep knowing that this will never happen.

[Genereaver]

Yes. Dark and revolutionary, rising up against the rightful rulers. This is what the NLR was supposed to be, before the fags got to the idea.

[Flyntendo]

The main body of this remix reminds me of 28 seconds into "Heart Of Courage" by TSFH. Both awesome songs!

[Ozarka0]

Epic boss battle between two old friends who have turned on each other because of the evil one's willingness to do evil.

[yahtzeeman12]

Is this Transformers or MLP? XD

[SovietUnion100]

lol whats with bronies and bieng communist? ehh whatever kewl :D

[eggsaladinthetub]

@SovietUnion100 Meh, alot of them bandwagon it because it's "cool". But there are always ones who are genuinely communist.

[SovietUnion100]

@eggsaladinthetub ohhh i see

[MonkeyShow20]

Excuse me, I only have one request. One simple request...

TEACH ME D:

[makkon06]

@MonkeyShow20 Hey bro, I'd love to! We have a forum for brony composers, pro and beginers alike, called mylittleremix (dot) com, it's a great resource and you'll get a decent amount of feedback and support from the members there.

[aximila123]

@MonkeyShow20 yessss teach me your ways o` wise one!!!! 833

[TheGoggleguy]

What will happen at the turn of suns rule?

Will we all succumb to the nightmare cruel?

But light in its peril can no longer to save us

From this darkness who seeks to deprave us

So who is it we turn to? What do we do?

We turn to the one that bridges the two

With the bright of the day, and the cool of the night

may we all turn our sight to the sparkle of twilight.

[HowlsInTheDistance]

@TheGoggleguy That was pretty good lol.

[TheEigol]

WHY DO YOUR VIDEOS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS.

[makkon06]

@TheEigol I thought 30,000 was doing pretty good :O

[TheEigol]

@makkon06 Yeah 30,000 isnt bad, but i mean your earlier works aswell, those are as great as this.

[MultiFireballz]

Together we stand, Divided we fall.

Light and Dark must come together.

For eternal Dusk.

[CaptainFluffatun]

This track is simply amazing. Very powerful, Makkon.

[PSshadow92]

Nice to hear Octavia's joined the cause.

[nomnomripper]

Out of curiousity, it be refreshing to have some pro celestia mus* Dragged off by Pony secret police for spreading dissent*.

[ITSbigwillystyle]

The lunar republic emblem is an upside down Islamic crest.

[ZlatkoTheGod]

@ITSbigwillystyle *Inhales* YAY...

[aerotan]

@ITSbigwillystyle Inasmuch as that particular crest is literally a crescent moon with a star between the points, sure.

Personally, I think the emblem fits the Republic on a purely symbolic level, without needing to drag human religions into the politics of god-horses.

[AmfleetII]

@aerotan

Libyan revolutionaries in Equestria! Make it happen, internet!

[fapals2fapals]

hey, do, im going to message you about this also, but do you mind if i add lyrics to this?, ill credit you, and "not a clever pony", this is purely for fun also, non-profit

[faerie7dragon]

I've spend my whole life on the frontier, keeping the Everfree away, surrounded by the suffering of the brave who left all behind and defend it to their last breaths, A Civil War is coming, Loonies they think they fight for what's it right, they fight for the good Goddess, and then they will realize, that they are fighting for Wealth and Land.

This conflict between Sun and Moon will only bring more Death and Sorrow to Equestria~ High Lord Judge Cloud Chaser, Leader of Celestia's Royal Guard.

ATTENTION ALL PONIES OF THE SOLAR EMPIRE

WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL

WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL

WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL

[MrFlutterPie]

To understand freedom you must first understand oppression. To taste victory you must experience bitter defeat. Only through hardship you will gain success. By witnessing the deaths of your fellow brothers and sisters will you rejoice in your life. The war is coming comrades. Be ready to act for there is a hero in each of us. RESIST!

[Holcanator]

My sword is yours my Queen.

Long live the Lunar Republic!

[DesuOperator]

To all my followers:

It...has...begun.

All mares, colts, fillies, stallions... grab all pies, apples, & anything you can buck. Get suited for combat, not for success. This is not a drill. This is your call to hooves.

This is war. And we either win this... or get banished to the moon trying.

Operation Final Light has begun. Siege Canterlot & capture Celestia. Leave her to me.

Signed,

Princess Luna

[PhatMike443]

What do you use to make this music? It sounds amazing!

[Darkforce2K]

Lunar Republic wins by epic picture

[makkon06]

@Darkforce2K Point taken. I'll be sure to make something equally awesome to measure up.

[WolfPeste]

@makkon06

Is it related to Heinlein's "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress?"

There's red star over a Moon and Luna in "TMiaHM" also has a lots of Russian references and serves as a permanent settlement for political prisoners.

[IreOfSilverpine]

We'll give them all cancer with our moon dust.

[JosePablo24]

All Hail our Mighty Luna!

[Soraman67]

I keep thinking of Axel (Kingdom Hearts II) saying "Come here, I'll make it all stop!".

[jaktv09]

@makkon06 *flips my shit because i can't wait for it*

[MisterZombyWoof]

Why do we call it the new Lunar Republic? Do we only plan to keep her in power for 4 years?

[hotelmario510]

@MisterZombyWoof Be patient, they haven't drawn up the Constitution yet. I suspect the term of a leader would be until they die.

Luna is immortal. Trololol.

[ToxicMynd]

I shall begin construction on the new armaments for the NLR.

[TheDesert92]

@ToxicMynd scince its technically a rebellion we would be using the equivelant of the AK-47, which actually wouldent be a bad thing X3

[makkon06]

Anyone else a little weirded-out by some of the comments here?

[ShadyLeprechaun93]

@makkon06 You mean the roleplay-esque "My-life-for-the-republic" ones?

[NoveloMaus]

@makkon06 Which ones?
