I'm just too mauve and nerdy!

[–]kourtbard 3 points4 points ago

I wanna trot with the stallions, but so far they all I think I'm too mauve and nerdy!

[–]TheHAMization 1 point2 points ago

Think I'm just too mauve and nerdy!

[–]ponyriv 54 points55 points ago

My experience is completely different.

*blasting Winter Wrapup at full volume*

Oh shit, that car up there has his window rolled down! Better turn this down just in case he would recognize the song and proceed to follow me all the way to my destination so he could judge me in person!

[–]Vlyn 60 points61 points ago

Couldn't find a better one :D

[–]RabidCrab 41 points42 points ago

That's going to fuel my nightmares for a couple of nights.

I guess AJ, RD says the words?

Silently judging you from afar.

[–]ponyriv 5 points6 points ago

The judgement! It burns!

[–]rawrreddit 6 points7 points ago

Relax, Judgement doesn't do that much damage. Now, if he followed up with Templar's Verdict...

[–]Redbloom 0 points1 point ago

What server? I must find you... And hug you in-game.

[–]rawrreddit 0 points1 point ago

Smolderthorn and Laughing Skull, but I don't play much WoW anymore. I miss it, but I just haven't the time.

[–]rhiesa 10 points11 points ago

No way! Turn it up, they're just afraid to sing along.

[–]ponyriv 7 points8 points ago

[–]Dalek-Caan 1 point2 points ago

I'm waiting for someone to blast theirs around me so I can sing along. It might be a while.

How I see this gif playing out

[–]CtrlC_plus_CtrlV 119 points120 points ago

Just not the same without Bert.

[–]ek91 42 points43 points ago

I like this one...

[–]Devezu 8 points9 points ago

Why does this exist? I love the parallelism, but its mere existence is dumbfounding.

[–]ApplejackOfMyEye 3 points4 points ago

And there's another!

[–]adoggz 0 points1 point ago

... what?

[–]canpan14 21 points22 points ago

Hey. Dont downvote the original. Without it this post would never have come to be.

[–]alphazero924 1 point2 points ago

How is that the original? The original is just 50 cent driving away by himself.

[–]derpy_lurker 2 points3 points ago

The one with bert just sorta made it famous.

[–]zodiacv2 5 points6 points ago

Holy crap, you're the guy who commented about the IED earlier today.

[–]XavierMendel 4 points5 points ago

Seen this dude at least three times today. It's crazy, because all of those comments were awesome.

If Twilight was more disapproving than bored, than this gif would be perfect.

[–]pxdnninja 20 points21 points ago

I was blasting the Europony Discord song at a stop light and a car of people pulled up next to me and were singing along. :)

[–]Cheeky_Hustler 2 points3 points ago

I learned how to sing that song on Rock Band. I can't believe they make you sing the autotune part.

[–]pxdnninja 0 points1 point ago

Wow, it's been a year since I booted up Rock Band. I didn't even know it was on there!

[–]Cheeky_Hustler 1 point2 points ago

They just put it up a few weeks ago. I wish the song was a little harder though.

[–]pxdnninja 0 points1 point ago

Been thinking about pulling out Rock Band recently anyhow. Looks like it's gonna happen now.

[–]Dalek-Caan 0 points1 point ago

Did you have to do the laugh?

[–]Cheeky_Hustler 2 points3 points ago

It's this song. You have to sing the discooo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ooooord

[–]Dalek-Caan 1 point2 points ago

Ah, it skips the laugh in this version.

[–]Backupusername 13 points14 points ago

I also enjoy playing my pony music with the windows rolled down, but I turn it down when I reach an intersection so as not to offend passers-by simply by playing loud music of any kind.

[–]keiyakins 4 points5 points ago

Thank you :D

[–]COCKSWAIN 38 points39 points ago

There's brony music? How embarrassing.

[–]Cogitation 7 points8 points ago

Yep, tons of it. What kind of music do you like? We pretty much have a little bit of everything.

[–]Dalek-Caan 0 points1 point ago

I'd say at least a lot-a-bit of everything myself.

[–]Whenlifedies 4 points5 points ago

ponify.me (Celestia Radio) is good if you have Winamp...

That, or Everfree Radio.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, I love Celestia radio. I would stream it using my phone hooked up to my car stereo. It's cool, but I kept hearing this song that was a parody of the "dick in a box" song.

[–]CAPSLOCK44 10 points11 points ago

Inb4 every single person on this subreddit links to their favorite Brony song. But seriously, I have like 350 Brony songs on my iPhone, there's some really good stuff out there that's not just mindless dubstep.

[–]Theso 8 points9 points ago

Dubstep is never mindless :<

[–]apokatastasis 19 points20 points ago

Dubstep is rarely mindful.

[–]Theso 8 points9 points ago

You must be listening to the wrong things then. There's tons of good dubstep. Anyhow, all music has merit. Someone sat down and placed all the sounds you hear for a reason, among countless other technicalities, thus I'd call it mindful.

[–]apokatastasis 4 points5 points ago

I will concede to that. I've just never heard much dubstep that I consider to be unique or interesting.

[–]andyk123pony 1 point2 points ago

If there is one thing MLP has taught me is that no genre of media or artistic medium is completely devoid of artistic merrit. While in some genres and mediums it may be hard to find the good stuff, it is not impossible.

[–]Axelfunx 0 points1 point ago

Chase & Status - Blind Faith. May not be entirely unique, but it's certainly both powerful and certainly not mindless

[–]davidfg4 6 points7 points ago

Here is a good place to get a start to hear some of the best

[–]Cameron_D 3 points4 points ago

20-or-so gigabytes of it.

[–]MotharChoddar 1 point2 points ago

My personal Youtube playlist. No dubstep, but relatively nice variety otherwise. (63 songs atm)

Yes! Here is the pinnacle of brony music.

[–]frostyuno 7 points8 points ago

Yeah, I've been doing a short-range move over the past few days. Blasting Balloon Party. Yesterday, a couple people next to me started dancing along.

[–]chewookie 7 points8 points ago

This has sent me down a infinite spiral of clicking links and then saving the songs for later use. Time wasted? NEVER

[–]derpy_lurker 3 points4 points ago

Scroll scroll

sigh

ctrl+click

Lather, rinse, repeat.

[–]Devezu 2 points3 points ago

If you have a scroll wheel, you can also middle click...

[–]That_Honest_Redditor 1 point2 points ago

TIL. Woooowwww

[–]Devezu 1 point2 points ago

Yup, also works to close tabs too!

[–]derpy_lurker 0 points1 point ago

[–]NickTheHalfling 0 points1 point ago

Ctrl+Click opens new tabs?

I've been using the middle mouse button :O

[–]Hey_Len 3 points4 points ago

Everyday.

[–]imjoshdean 6 points7 points ago

Generally, if I'm in my car one of three things is blasting loudly, windows open.

1) Everfree Radio 2) Soundcloud 3) Living Tombstone/Silva Hound/Archie/etc saved on my phone.

Reach an intersection and have to stop? That's just extra time to rock out and dance in my seat while I wait.

[–]CelestialBrony 10 points11 points ago

Wha? What about Alex S.? Wooden Toaster? Sim Gretina? (Possibly) OmniPony?

I'm sorry, but I find The Living Tombstone's music to be awful. Try out those four; very refreshing music. Alex S. makes amazing dubstep. Wooden Toaster makes awesome remixes, co-ops, and just... awesome. Sim Gretina makes nothing but amazing remixes. OmniPony is good if you like the Skrillex-y kind of dubstep. It's too hardcore for me to enjoy more than one or two of his songs, but maybe someone else will.

EDIT: I totally come off as an ass here. I try not to be, I assure you! But you should still check out those four. I love them (aside from OmniPony), and you might as well, particularly The Wooden Toaster and Sim Gretina, if you really like The Living Tombstone.

[–]Sylverstone14 3 points4 points ago

May I ask why you think he's awful? Just curious.

[–]CelestialBrony 0 points1 point ago

His songs are incoherent nonsense. They make little to no actual sense (I mean seriously, what the hell is this?), rarely follow an actual beat, and he's a terrible singer. I find his music to be of the lowest quality, similar to that of a 14-year-old exposed to song-mixing software (that's exactly what OmniPony is, but he has his older brother's, Alex S., guidance).

If you think you can convince me otherwise, then fire away, I'm open to suggestions. I always love new music, but I just haven't found any Living Tombstone song that suits my interests.

[–]Sylverstone14 1 point2 points ago

For starters, that song was a request from Rina-chan which Tombstone graciously accepted. Considering the fact that he had an 13 second clip to work with, it was going to be repetitive in some cases.

Probably not the best example to use, but whatever.

Other than that, I can agree that his singing isn't up to par with folks like Mic the Microphone, Glaze or Eurobeat Brony but I admire his attempts. I liked "September", since I felt that his voice fit it quite well (even if Mic's cover was just as good - or maybe better). The same goes for "Like a Spinning Record", which I was genuinely surprised to hear because it was unlike Tombstone.

As for the beats - they are rather catchy ("Love Me Cheerilee", the remix of Eurobeat Brony's "Discord", etc), even though there is a very common Tombstone element that you'll hear in most of his songs.

Now, I'm not one to convince others to like what they don't like, but I don't know if I can really call your last sentence as a bluff.

The upvotes do have it, as there are some who take your word as the truth. Tombstone has a lot of room for improvement, but he has done a few good songs and there are people that enjoy it for what it is. I don't think that's really anything like incoherent nonsense.

I expect the guy to get better. I'm not going to convince you to change your mind, that's something you'll have to do on your own.

[–]CelestialBrony 1 point2 points ago

It's not a bluff or challenge or anything, I wanted you to actually try. Maybe I judged him wrong, maybe I've only listened to his shitty songs, I don't know. I can always be wrong.

I loved "Love Me Cheerilee" before I tried any Living Tombstone, so he's obviously fairly good at co-ops.

Tried "September" just now. Can't say I like it. However, "Like A Spinning Record" is great in my opinion. I like that one.

Maybe I have a love/hate for the guy. I don't like most of his stuff, but "Dubstep Dishwasher", "Like A Spinning Record", "Love Me Cheerilee", I like all of those.

And I'm sorry if I offended you. I shouldn't insult him like I did. He makes great music, sure, his thousands upon thousands of fans are a testament to that, but it's just not my taste.

[–]Sylverstone14 1 point2 points ago

I've seen The Living Tombstone grow from his first two remixes of "Melting Pot of Alcohol" and "Party with Pinkie" (both by Alex S.), and I feel very proud that he's been able to persevere and make better music. It was an honor to applaud him at the musicians panel at Summer BronyCon because I believe his work paid off well.

The Glaze + Tombstone co-op was fantastic, and they said to expect more so....

Your mileage may vary for "September", but I cannot deny that "Like A Spinning Record" is really one of his best original songs (most people love him for the Discord remix).

It's okay to have an opinion - I admit that I don't listen to a lot of artists, but I try my best to give it a shot. The Balloon Party album exposed me to a lot of talent, and my two favorite songs come from artists I never heard of until then - "Boooring!" by Assertive Fluttershy and "Sleep" by Echelon.

And I never really felt offended at all. I just asked for an answer and you were able to give me something I was able to process and make an honest rebuttal to, since I felt there was some parts which peaked my interest.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinions and I really don't want to effect change by means of forcing my own opinions on others. Not everyone's going to like the same things, and that is honestly fine by me.

I'm happy that we were able to have a proper discussion though!

[–]imjoshdean 2 points3 points ago

Alex S, Wooden Toaster, Sim Gretina, Omnipony, and MORE all fit into the etc. part of that statement. They are all good.

I enjoy most of Living Tombstone's work. Sure, there are a few songs that are swings and misses, but overall I think he has a good track record. That said, if you don't like him, that's cool. Don't have to like EVERYTHING! :)

[–]CelestialBrony 1 point2 points ago

Just making sure that you knew of all them awesome artists! Have fun blasting brony music wherever you go, my friend!

[–]Dalek-Caan 1 point2 points ago

Wooden Toaster eh? Based off of your other links being some of my favorite artists, I must check out the toaster.

[–]CelestialBrony 1 point2 points ago

He's wonderful. "Love Me Cheerilee", "Nightmare Night". They're all great.

[–]Dalek-Caan 1 point2 points ago

Yes this music is quite enjoyab-

MY TURN!

MOVE OVER!

[–]Will_billy 0 points1 point ago

Funny, TLT takes part in a lot of those people's songs!

[–]Thallis 0 points1 point ago

Gak! You can't talk about great pony music without mentioning PinkiePieSwear, Sogreatandpowerful and Notacleverpony!

[–]Furiouss06 4 points5 points ago

I think I just found my new favorite GIF!

[–]Doctor_of_Recreation 2 points3 points ago

I blast it in the hopes that maybe, one day, someone will shout at me and rock along.

[–]PhoneCar 1 point2 points ago

Times like these, I wish I had chosen a car over a house :(

[–]Dalek-Caan 0 points1 point ago

Step 1: Open the windows.

Step 2: Blast pony music out said windows.

Step 3: ??

Step 4: Profit.

[–]keiyakins 1 point2 points ago

Ugh... please don't do that. Blasting your music is really, really annoying for those around you. I mean, if you're in a convertable and I can kinda hear it on the sidewalk of a suburban street you're walking on, that's fine, but BRUMP BRUMP BRUMP in my house or in another car next to you, uuugh. And even if you ARE playing it in balance bass seems to carry farther so...

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points ago

I think it depends on location, I turn down my music in a neighborhood, but driving through commercial development I turn it up because no one reasonably expects peace and quiet there.

[–]T3HK4T 2 points3 points ago

But, You know, PONIES!

[–]MLP_Awareness 1 point2 points ago

Omg god why haven't I thought of this?! I just got 2 12"s pushing 1200 watts in my car last week!

[–]Ovy 0 points1 point ago

What's your setup? I'm beginning to get a little into car audio, myself.

I'm looking at a SA-12d4 and getting a ported box built for it

[–]MLP_Awareness 1 point2 points ago

I got a couple Audiobahn AW1205Q's, a little old but they can still push. I got 'em in an old '89 honda civic, which just takes the cake lol

A one or two SA-12d4's will definitely push your windows around.

Edit: Listened to it on my way home, and Damn Balloon Party got that low end down.

[–]Ovy 0 points1 point ago

Two SA-12s would murder me, and my poor little '02 Kia couldn't fit both of them in at the same time.

A 10'' would be good enough, but the 12'' is the same price, so I thought, why not?

[–]polite_fox 0 points1 point ago

I know that feel.

[–]skipper224 1 point2 points ago

[–]Calcos323 0 points1 point ago

I blast my pony remixes when I drive down Old Orchard Beach (a local tourist hotspot). I give no fucks, and neither does anyone else. In fact, I consistently see people bobbing their heads in time to it. It's awesome.

[–]Dalek-Caan 0 points1 point ago

I justify it two different ways.

1: I listen to other peoples terrible terrible music when they blast it.

2: Pony music is best music, and nobody is going to complain.

[–]Im-M-A-Reyes 0 points1 point ago

Too hilarious!

[–]thedarklordkyp -4 points-3 points ago

It totally needs RD back there instead.

[–]dubermun -4 points-3 points ago

Is this brony movement jus another scam put together by 4chan faggots? I don't get what's so appealing about some lame ass cartoon about ponies. This reminds me of the toothpaste on your nipples scam.
