  • Hi der. Dis be Zecora. All of you ponies arguin' about how her instrument and clef dont match up right. Well da show was made for little fillies at da time ya know. She be playin da bass, no cello. Me and octi had a loooooong chat about music (might boring if you as me). So lets love, tolerate, and slay some dragons to her music huh?

  • it would be great in dbz

  • That bitch looks ready to fuck shit up

  • Okay, good. I'm not the only one who thought of RuneScape when I heard this. XD

  • wow. i feel like i should be walking through an enchanted forest or something

  • Wow, this blew my mind

  • It even sounds awesome when it's reversed.

  • Hey, i recognize that picture...

  • I was actually thinking for a fanfiction I'm writing having Octavia be a mute and uses music to comunicate kind of like a make-shift language. I was going to then include an OC who is so in sync with music that he can understand her by the way she puts her emotions into her music. Think it might work?

  • @DarkAngel31678 That's pretty damn neat! Send me a link when it's finished ;)

  • @Coltsuke I will but unfortunatly it will not be finished for some time. I am currently going through military training and mananged to get some downtime for the holidays. I've been using this time to work on my project. I will most likey have at least the first 4 chapters done before I leave. Its a fic involoving Celestia creating a program to bring hand picked bronies and other humans into Equestria to give them a chance for a better life. It will focus on 5 different bronies a special OC.

  • @DarkAngel31678 Good luck I will be Looking forward to reading it, Be carful out there! Best regards.

  • @DarkAngel31678 They have a champion like that in League Of Legends, her name is Sona, you should look her up, very pretty.

  • @DarkAngel31678

    Sounds interesting. If you don't me imposing on you for a moment, I would like a link as well, once finished. Feel free to decline, however.

  • Octavia is having an epic battle (music concert)with her big sis.(fan fiction im thinking of making)

  • @MagicMatchsticks007 You haven't played Touhou, have you?

  • good 

  • @MagicMatchsticks007

    Well, I still play and like Runescape, and that's just my opinion, but you're right in that it has an epic soundtrack.

  • so my freinds,mom(or family)says that if i was a girl and pony i would be Octavia can someone tell why?

  • LMFAO i was just thinking i could play this song to runescape then i scrolled down to read some comments.......you can get the rest :P GJ BRONY very nice work

  • EPIC!

  • @MagicMatchsticks007 Ah, Morrowind is a very old game, third in its series. xD It was my favourite game for around 7 years (The 4th wasn't as good IMO), but now the 5th, Skyrim, and Saints' Row 3 are threatening it :P

  • @MagicMatchsticks007 I slightly disagree. While Runescape has ONE OF the best soundtracks, so did Morrowind, and the two are kinda in competition for me, the Morrowind theme is just so... you know :P

  • @MagicMatchsticks007 I completely agree

  • am ready for Peaca Intermediate now

  • @MagicMatchsticks007 Ah, yes. I won't argue there. Jagex has some amazing talent with music, given that they use rather low quality instruments (sounds like .midi, really) to make what they do. I should totally remix one of their songs. Been thinking about one I believe was called Ghostship. That or Long Way From Home. Both were among my favorites.

  • Comment removed

  • @Coltsuke Interestingly enough, a lot of the classical battle themes go well with playing RuneScape, this one being a good example. Try Wintertime in Equestria for simply walking around. Good stuff.

  • e-sharp is F..... :3

  • Ok *picks up lollipop*

    Who is ready to love and tolerate the shit out of some dragons!

  • alright. Im ready to fight some dragons to this.

  • dune2 harkonnen theme

  • Chaos. Disharmony. Discord.

    Excellent.

    Soon, we will rise.

    We are Anonymous.

  • Picture source?

  • Octavia is slowly becoming my favorite pony... I LIKE

  • @Coltsuke MIDI orchestrator?

  • This music, its inspires. It awes. It can mean only one thing, that the final great battle of our time is upon us.

    Lets us ready ourselves in its wake, for the scourge to come and to fall upon us.

    *plants a sunflower*

  • @Axquirix

    And then the flowers will grow, and infest the world, disabling their ability to fight. For who can fight with so many flowers around you? And once the world is full of flowers, we shall invade. When people no longer have the will to fight, we will take over this place.

    Forgive me for not being entirely correct, but you get my gist./FFVIII

  • @DragonmasterRontio Oh, really? I was making a Plants vs Zombies reference. The only FF games I've played are One and Dissidia.

  • @Axquirix

    I take it you enjoyed them?

  • @Axquirix MUST... DOWNLOAD... PONIES... Before its too late...

  • great song

    

  • Runescape?

  • @zakadams762 What about it?

  • @Coltsuke WOO :D

  • @Coltsuke sounds like a soundtrack from RS

  • @zakadams762

    sure sounds like it doesn't it :P

  • @zakadams762 RuneScape is an MMO. It's fun when you first play, but then it just gets repetitive.

  • @zakadams762 It sounds a lot like it yeah

  • @zakadams762 Lol playing it right now, and now that you mention it, this really sounds like it would be in Runescape

  • thumbs up if u want an MLP FiM RPG <33

  • GUYS, IT'S A CELLO, AND HER MARK IS A //BASS// CLEFF. BASS!!!

  • This is the most badass, lyric-less pony song ever.

  • if this is a bass player... why is the cutie mark a violin cleft?

  • @lilchucknorris I'm pretty sure Octavia has treble clef because it is more widely recognized by people than bass or alto clef. Just saying...

  • Sounds like something out of Castle Crashers.

  • I always wondered why Octavia's cutie mark is a treble clef, even though Cello music is usually notated in bass or tenor clef.

  • @northrupthebandgeek Like everyone's been pointing out, most people can associate a treble clef with music, whereas a bass clef is relatively unknown. So it's not a reference to the instrument she plays, just a generic "music" cutie mark.

  • @Kirbytroid I feel offended that my clef of choice is a minority. Power to the bass clef!

  • @northrupthebandgeek that should make u proud because it shows how much more unique you are compared to others. Plus you stand out more. For me I was just one violinist amongst many, my friend was a bass amongst 2 (originally 3 but she wasn't awesome enough to take our teachers challenges(she was lazy))

  • CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS HOLY WARRIORS YAY!!!!

  • CMC: "We won't stop until we find our Cutie Marks. Nothing will get in our way. Even if that means going through YOU!" *Music starts*

  • This honestly reminds me of Kingdom Hearts.

  • Castle Crashers anypony?

  • The interesting thing is... this sounds a lot like some Runescape songs.

  • @Johnmadden319 Hecks yes! I love both the bass orchestra instruments, and techno, so I'm torn between Vinyl and Octavia... (8*{

  • Play video.

    Favourite it after 3 seconds.

    Regret nothing.

  • ... Sweepy Bell, Scootaloo and Applebloom have gotten themselves into some serious trouble this time...

  • Epic...sheer epic...

  • Final boss of the internet apears

  • I've always loved it when people respect the bass. The bass is the foundation of the song. Unless there's Whitney singing it's all about the bass or else teh song loses foundation and your left with squeaky noise up top, which is terrible... unless your Fluttershy then your "Just So Cute"

  • I find it funny how she dosent even have fingers, yet still is able to play that bass... Lol wut.

  • @DrGarlic500 i have fingers and i cant even play my bass guitar lol

  • @rainbowdash20111111 lolz. Dont worry im sure you´ll play well some day!

  • @DrGarlic500 haha thanks if only octavia was my teacher

  • Nightmare moon is taking over, this plays

  • added to my

    "My little pony: Fall of Equestria" album

  • Nobody knows how ponies push down individual strings with their hooves or even hold a violin bow - but who cares, FRIENDSHIP IS GODDAMN MAGIC!

  • @Xuvial heck i bet they can type!

  • Fillies, gather round! No retreat, no surrender; that is Bronie law. And by Bronie law we will stand and fight... and die. A new age has begun. An age of freedom, and all will know, that 300 Bronies gave their last breath to defend it!

  • Vinyl: Poster girl for raves and hideouts.

    Octavia: Poster girl for symphonies and concertos.

  • It has begun.

  • ...amazing oO

  • @Thethirdsock Yeah... us cello players are so underrated...

    @Everypony I dunno, I read the bass cleft more than any other, and I play four instruments... ^-^

  • @Everypony She's skilled at music so she has a treble cleft. There aren't too many cutie marks that would fit with a her instrument precisely. Treble Clefts are what start the lines of sheet music one would normally read when playing an instrument and playing a specific song they hadmt commited to memory exactly.

  • My head is playing with me, I see the background move ... optical ilusion.

  • What's all this remix war buisness?

  • @TechGrenade It was an event that started a while back, where you take one or two songs made by a fellow brony and remix them. They have their own site, My little remix . com (minus the spaces), where you can keep tabs on upcoming events and challenges.

  • @Coltsuke

    Thanks dude! Became a brony about 2-3 weeks back, and a site full of Pony Remix's? I'm officially in the loop now.

  • Amazing

  • Sounds like something I would hear in Fire Emblem, and thats a good thing.

  • sounds like it came from castle crashers

    from that wedding level

  • Sounds like Pokemon! This is epic!

  • Octavia's flippin' amazing. Although, she plays a bass instrument, so why the treble cleft cutie mark? O.o

  • @lilchucknorris if you look closely, you'll see its actually just a fancy ampersand. '&'

  • Comment removed

  • @Coltsuke Sure looks closer to a treble clef to me, save that the bottom part is curved in the incorrect direction.

  • @Coltsuke No, that's a Treble Cleft. It might be backwards, but it's not an ampersand.

  • @jaredmartingordon No, what Coltsuke is saying is that it LOOKS like an ampersand. Which in terms, it is. The only difference is that the treble clef has a swirl in the middle and the bottom line extends a bit further. Trust me, if you draw them two often, you'll know. Well, you don't really have to draw them, but it helps.

  • @Coltsuke Isn't it a 'G' key? They're usually scribbled at the start of a note sheet.

  • @pludrpladr Eh, I really wouldn't know. I can read music just as well as I can decipher Egyptian hieroglyphs, which is, to say, not at all.

  • @Coltsuke It's a g clef, lol.

  • @Coltsuke It's a G >.>

  • @Coltsuke it is a G Clef, AKA Treble Clef. It isn't an ampersand. It is written at the beginning of every line of music that is written for higher octave instruments, opposite the F Clef, AKA Bass Clef, written for the lower octave instruments

  • @Coltsuke It's definately a treble clef. I assume it's a treble clef because most 6 year old girls would recognize that as a musical thing, but wouldn't have ever even see a bass clef before.

  • @shadeoflightmusic Plus a bass clef looks like a sad face so theyd be wondering why her cutie mark is to be depressed.

  • @SuperYogSothoth ...That's funny XD

  • @Coltsuke No, that is, indeed, a Treble Clef.  Maybe she plays other instruments, too.

  • @Coltsuke Octavia's cutie mark is definitely a treble clef.

    My guess would be that she's proficient in more than one instrument. We've only seen her play once, after all, so maybe she just happened to be playing bass at the time.

  • @Coltsuke As someone who does read music, yes, it's a G (or Treble) Clef symbol. Which really does bring up the question as to why she's playing a Bass? Perhaps this is her secondary instrument and her first is a Violin or Viola (which are both Treble Clef instruments)?

  • @pludrpladr its called a G cleft also known as what lilchucknorris said a treble cleft...with a sister who plays violin i've been able read music pretty well

  • @pludrpladr

    You're correct.

  • @pludrpladr yes your correct its called either a treble Clef or G clef, this is the note designating which octave a piece of music begins on, thus the name Octavia :)

  • @lilchucknorris I guess that's the irony. But then again, think about her having the bass clef. It would be a relatively simple design and a lot of empty flank space.

  • @lilchucknorris Maybe she's a violinist in denial?

  • @lilchucknorris Probably because a treble clef is more recognizable?

  • @lilchucknorris

    I'd say it's because a bass clef isn't as recognizable as a treble clef. She just topped my charts on favorite though, being a bass player myself.

  • @lilchucknorris Yeah, a bass clef symbol would have been more accurate to the instrument, but more people recognize "treble clef" = "music". If she'd worn a bass clef symbol, you can bet that somepony somewhere would have wondered "why in hay is someone trying to map the C drive on Octavia's flank?" :P

  • @lilchucknorris because a bass clef looks like a sad face

  • @lilchucknorris I thought it was a cello. . .actually i think it IS a cello. . .

  • @lilchucknorris Cellos still play largely within the treble range, but have the ability to go much lower, like pianos. Wait, I'm doing this wrong, let me try again.

    ur stupid, u dont no anything about music, go cry 2 ur mommi

  • @lilchucknorris bro she can play multiple stringed instruments, the GGG called for Bass instrument

  • @lilchucknorris It's a cello

  • @ITSbigwillystyle It's still a bass instrument because it uses the bass clef.

  • @JeanaWantsPudding It's a treble cleff....

  • @ChibiVamp232 Octavia's cutie mark is a treble clef. She plays an instrument that uses a bass clef in its sheet music.

  • @JeanaWantsPudding Indeed.

  • Oh sweet jezus another track for my workout playlist :D

  • This song makes even the most mundane of tasks epic.

  • epic music ^^ great job! :D

    allso , can you put a link for that picture of Octavia? it looks awsome

  • If i ever make a module for any Tabletop RPG game this is going to be either epic battle music or something else... dunno what but i'll find out

  • Awesome!

  • Sounds like a song out of Kingdom hearts! Infact...

    >goes to play through kingdom hearts again

    Nope. It's not there. But seriously, it sounds like something out of a Square game.

  • @Emcmillin09 so it's not just me? Cool.

  • That picture of Octavia looks so bad ass lol. Its like she knows she's the shit.

  • @Jazmillenium

    That's because she IS the shit.

  • @Jazmillenium And we know it too. 

  • its like a epic Pokemon battle that will decide the fate of all of Equestria

  • This is a very good version of the CMC that really makes it sound like its going to war as a crusade, nicely made.

  • At first I thought it was the biggining of a Luigi's Mansion remix, or something.

  • Why a Treble if the bass uses a Bass clef?

  • @Meshmeal1

    im not the one who drew that picture, but i play music. i can tell you that most people don't know what a bass clef is, nor any other clef for that matter.

  • @Meshmeal1

    People generally agree that that's a cello and that she stands because ponies are short.

  • does this remind anyone else of Battle for Wesnoth? it's kinda an obscure game, so i don't really expect anyone to have played it. however, the music is VERY similar to this :D

  • @EpicZantetsuken I have played it, and, yeah, this would fit right on in with the rest of the tracks.

  • @SuperTerrificDude :D

    that game had a fantastic soundtrack, so when i heard this for the first time, it actually sent a nostalgic shiver down my spine XD

  • @EpicZantetsuken I just thought you might like to know that I reinstalled BfW and played through a couple hours worth of campaigns because of your comment. I will only be able to get 2 hours of sleep tonight. :P

  • @SuperTerrificDude XD

    *mission accomplished*

  • This sounds like something from Kingdom Hearts

  • oh may GAHHHH! So good!

  • For some reason I don't recognize their theme in this, but honestly I don't care, this song kicks flank!

  • Sounds like a boss fight theme for a pony RPG, nice work!

  • @HardbeatAcolyte DUDE! It seriously should be! Hope some game designers are reading this!

  • @gurglelord

    Already working on one =P

  • @MrDansze Rock ON, man! Thank you!

  • wow

  • Okay, first note and I literally, out loud, went "Woah....!" Freaking kickass dude.

  • when i read kisuke i immediately thought bleach

  • THANK YOU FOR THE SONG NOW I'M GONNA MAKE A PIVOT ANIMATION OUT OF THIS THANK YOU THANK YOU

  • I will burn fire

  • i like this

  • This sounds like something from the Archives level in Goldeneye. I think ill go play that with this looping now

  • @Drumada You're totally right :P

  • I love the medieval feel of this song.

  • This is truly excellent.

  • Really reminds me of Croc 2...

    Epic, epic, epic stuff.

  • SO AWESOME!

    I think I got a cutiemark through the sheer awesomeness radiating from this song!

    Scratch that!

    I think I got TWO cutiemark through the sheer awesomeness radiating from this song!

  • @Sleepingsonar A Cutie Mark Cutie Mark.
