The reason I became a brony was because of the music. Music is what brought me to becoming a brony back in september. Now, I want to create an album where there is music by bronies that can be shown to anyone, and still be awesome. I want to have music that can be shown to non-bronies that still can be cool in their mind.
Because of the renaming of the album, this can no longer officially be the album cover, but i'll leave it so you can all admire the awesomeness of it.

The Rules for this album:
1. The tracks must be made by a brony artist. The songs can relate to ponies or not, just the artist has to be a brony. (Too bad none of those are around here...)
2. Do not use over-used samples from the show (20%), unless it can be used in a manner that seems awesome.
3. The music should be child appropriate, no swearing, not even the Chinese swear words.
4. You may submit as many songs as you like, but they must be original. do not submit the same song twice.
5. Tracks can be any length, but try to keep it under twenty minutes. (I know how some of you are...)
6. To be a judge for the music, PM me. Judges will remain unknown to the public unless they want to be known.
7. If you have an idea for an Album Title Change, submit it.
[UPDATED HERE]
TO SUBMIT A TRACK, SEND THE SONG TO [email protected]
The release of the album will depend on how many tracks are submitted and how many are accepted. The plan however is to have this be released this fall to give time for people to make their submissions. This reason for the extended due date was because of the fact that I have very limited access to a computer during summer months.
[UPDATED]
I want at minimum 10 tracks for this album, but there will be a limit at 15. The album will be given away on Bandcamp because they support free give-a-ways as well as accept donations.
This brings us to pricing. This will be a free album, but all money donated will go to the artists. Artists can opt out of earning money if they choose to do so.
Prefered genres: Dubstep, house, progressive, trance, anything remotely party-like.
The sounds of this album should be more upbeat and feel-good.
The theme of this album can be expressed in two words: COOL PARTY. Can this be played at a party with non-bronies and be cool? Does this have a party-like beat? Does this sound like a happy time?
Anyone can submit a song as well. Even if you have never made songs before, you can submit a song here to make a name for yourself.
The judging will work like this: Once the song is submitted, I will listen to them to make sure that it does not contain anything inappropriate. Then several people will hear the music and rate it on originality and uniqueness, how interesting it sounded, how party-like it was, as well as if it could be played to non-bronies and they would enjoy it. Judges will not know the artist to the song, this will keep it unbiased. Then, I actually play it around non-bronies and see the reactions.
As with judges that do not actually know me, songs will be sent to them, and they would have instructions to judge with similar categories. PM me to sign up.
In order for advertisement, I am actually hoping that Freewave can help me out a little bit on the Brony Musician Directory. (Awesome site by the way, I was not even paid to say that. (And I wasn't paid to say I wasn't paid.))
All songs may be submitted, but not all songs will be accepted. Not all songs have to be able to be played near non-bronies and still be cool to make it into this album.
About myself:
I live in Brighton, Colorado, USA. I am a student, and an avid listener to Brony Music. My goal is to spike interest in Brony Music again. The new golden age of Brony Music will be on the rise again, be a part of that. Submit your songs.
