Wow, this is some really cool stuff. Taking them all in as a whole, you seem to have good direction and an idea of what you're doing. They're well done (without me getting nitpicky or whatever -- which I could if you wanted, but I figure this is more of an introduction of you and your music). Aw heck, here I go anyway.

Pony it up: Totally got me laughing with the "HAIIiigiiirrrlllss." It has a really solid beat and a great driving force behind it. Aside from a few spots that sound like the notes are off a tad, it's very good. It also has a decent sense of build up throughout the whole song. And there's enough variation to keep it from being repetitive. IMO, the best one in your list here.

Yay: Cool groove overall, but I felt like the use of the "yays" and pony sounds were kinda forced and didn't match up well with the rest of it. Same with the section at the end with the guitar, it seemed out of place. But I really liked the beginning half's groove and all.

Once for a change: The intro was sweet, good timing on the buildup. The second buildup felt too long and kinda fell into a lackluster part afterwards. Things that bugged me, though: the "yaiyaiyaiyai"s got pretty annoying, the blam kick that came in around 1:00 (coupled with the too long second build up), there is a lot of "sounds" that sound decent, but there isn't much actual bass to it. From what I hear it's mostly mids/highs. And about the second "drop" I love the use of the dragon's voice, it just really feels like it needs to be a lot more powerful after that and instead it was kinda weak feeling. The ending was pretty good, though. And it was good, don't get me wrong, it incorporated the pony voices/sounds much better than 'yay.'

Isolation: Not too bad, the voices weren't as well integrated as they were in "Once For A Change," but still better than "Yay." The whole glitchy/repetitive use of Rarity's voice at 1:55 reaaaalllllyy got old pretty quick. It wasn't interesting and just kinda droned on. Also, I couldn't quite get a theme from this one. I mean, she's saying this is whining, but none of it sounds whiny to me. Could just be my opinion on the matter.

Initializing Pink: The beat was sweeeet, I really loved the drums and all in this one. My assumption from the song is it's one of Pinkie Pie's crazy moments, as you have that other weird creepy detuned synth over the top. Which conveys the idea, but the notes for it seems off, like they should be darker sounding as opposed to light, and if they're to be the "good side" then it shouldn't be detuned. Aside from those few things, this is pretty great. The ending was kinda simple, which disappointed me a bit, though.

Ok, a lot of that was pretty critical. I get these aren't things you'll change because they're completed songs and whatnot, but in any case, my first statement above stands, it does sound like you have direction. I'm looking forward to your future creations!
