I thought this was awesome, but what's with the title, I couldn't recognize any Luna in here :) You could've just as well called it Aiffell Tower, it would make just as much sense ^^ It's a classic uplifting/progressive trance tune, but you should've connected it with the character more. :)

I absolutely love the progression you half through out the whole tune. I love the trancy/ambientness of the beginning and was pretty impressed with the flow to the little electro parts. Keep it up :)

I really enjoy this. It's upbeat, catchy and uses good and "colorful" melodies and progressions.
Not really too much to add really. Good sounds, you use the sounds at good locations of the song.

Overall, really good job.

Thanks for all the positive feedback, guys. Seriously, I really wanna thank you guys for taking your time to listen. I do realize I need to take an extra step with pony music, relating to the character. It seems to be the hardest part for me, I guess.

Again, thanks a ton for listening :D

Well... It isn't something you really must do. Doesn't matter if you use voice samples or not, it is still "Pony" music. I have a couple of songs that i don't have any samples in what so ever, but i still call them pony because they are based on locations and scenarios in the pony world.

So, don't worry. Things don't need to have LUNA written on it in big neon letters to be a Luna song. :D

Woah! The song really took an unexpected and amazing turn at 1:50ish.
Staring off very nice and relaxing then woah! Loving the beat!
I love music, and this show. I hope that my stay here will inspire others just as you inspire me.

REALLY like that last statement. Usually I have a difficult time getting the track to a level where the correlation between the music and the character is recognizable, and I try to emphasize it. The process usually ends up with me scrapping some ideas that I had from earlier in order to achieve just that. But you've just pointed out to me that I don't need to do this ( I'm not entirely why I was doing this in the first place ) So thank you, I'm loving these comments.

Thanks, I tried to weave in and out of genres to confuse people. Glad you're liking it! By the way, all my software/hardware is noted in my sig :D

Nice! First I thought it was going to be a relaxing ambient song. But suddenly: awesome electro something! You got me hooked with that beat straight from the beginning. Really great work!

I listen to both this and your Pinkie song 50% sped up but with the 'harder' parts cut out of this.
