This started out as a, what, 15-second loop that Codeum posted with some glitched Fluttershy vocals. My first extension of the loop kept the vocals, but this morning, on a whim, I decided to completely redo it, and the song grew from 4 minutes to 13, lost the vocals, saw me figuring out sidechaining, and almost overheated my laptop.

Anywho, the pony influence here now that it's purely instrumental might need some explaining. So here you go. I didn't really have any connection going through my head until I was listening to the nigh-finished track and I realized that even though it's in a major key, the ending sounds a bit sorrowful to me, and I could think of nothing that fit this better than Pinkie Pie. So decided that this song is essentially the soundtrack to the last (and greatest) party she ever throws.

It is sort of finished, but I do need to go through and tweak some of the EQs, maybe get some better drum samples, and grab my vocalist to do some work during the buildups, etc. But for now, what do you guys think?

Ok, you've grabbed your vocalist. And your vocalist has this to say:fine I'll see what I can do but I need a day and what do you define as build up because I need to know how long the vocals need to be because this is a very long song and run on sentences are the best way to talk. That's all your vocalist had to say.
