    mega thread What are you thinking?

    I wish I wasn't so soft spoken. A lot of unnecessary arguments happened in my life with close family just because they couldn't hear me, so I have to repeat what I said at a slightly higher volume. But simply raising my volume level = "having an attitude and being ungrateful" I guess. Cue the extremely unnecessary hour long lecture about blah blah blah that I can't get out of.

    mega thread What are you thinking?

    It's been a good while since I last touched it but the writing portion of Novel AI could get incredibly dark and 18+ at times (I had to adjust it to be toned down for my personal taste). It had a lot of adjustability and can memorize and recall a lot of context quite well from what I remember too. Anyways I still can't get this weird audio mixing video out of my head. I talked about it on bluesky but it was just so many unnecessary decision after unnecessary decision. Most of those processing effects were either doing nothing or just made no sense and it just hurts my head idk. whats the point of putting transient processing on birds chirping? And not even lowering the ceiling on the limiter to catch any peaks, meaning nothing is actually being limited? So pointless. But hey they're the one raking in almost a billion views on multiple 10 hour background sound effects vids so what do I know?

  4. Why did my monitor have to die on me now??? :flutter-table-flip:

      Sorry to hear that, my friend. It was just the monitor's time.
      I'd give you the spare I have on hand, but it has a few dead pixels, and it can't handle things like 60fps. :please: (I should probably just get rid of it.)

      @Samurai Equine Thank you but I also have a spare one luckily. 

  5. A bit old image now but Fellowship came out of nowhere recently and said he found some DATs: And he's borrowing equipment now so he can upload them digitally online I'm excited to see what's in there, he already uploaded some: https://fellowship-defunked.bandcamp.com I like Hysteria and Love Fantasy! Why did those not get released back then? Oh and Subject 13 (that's an old name!) he came back recently and released this: Subject 13 - All We Need ft. Lady Red
  6. As per usual I keep dreaming about being in high school even though I graduated over 5 years ago now. This time I was a bit too short for the desk so I was basically peeking over the top of them. (It was those taller ones that I remember being used in some classrooms but I guess the chair was not tall enough or I was just too short idk.) .
  7. Hi everyone, I have a lot more time now. Sorry for getting past the deadline! I've been told that people want an extension. Would anyone be ok with extending the deadline to the end of November? I'll try to stay on top of it this time. (Remember that you can make as many banner submissions as you want!)
  8. figured out some tech related issue. And now I just want to collapse in bed.
  9. Can someone remind me in the future to fix this? Left audio channel cut out randomly on this song from a guy I like and it's actually irritating me.  :flutter-table-flip: Might be from the master tape they used to remaster it.

    I never noticed it until today. I thought it was just my wireless earbuds having a goof but then I heard it on my wired headphones and went to look. Yep. Thankfully this music is loopy so I can just copy the section over from another part of the song like nothing ever happened but it's just distracting to listen to.

      ...

      HERE'S YOUR REMINDER! :muffins:
      Now I just need to send it to you two days ago.

  10. No sorry, there's reasons for this, mostly financial right now.
  11. What are the saddest/melancholic official MLP songs for you? Even the weirdly melancholic ones where on the surface it's happier in tone but the lyrics are more bluesy (for lack of a better term).
  12. Hi everyone, gonna try to keep it as short as I can but a few little updates regarding my music. 1. I think I've released 2 remixes since last time I posted anything here, so here they are: BK-One & Benzilla feat. Aby Wolf - Love Like That (Espy Vibe Bootleg) Seven Ponies - Fluttersky (Espy Vibe Remix) They were both fun to make! With Fluttersky, I wanted to take it in a less "EDM" route compared to the other remixes that people have done for it and I think it came out quite well. This one was in the remix folder for a while and I hadn't gotten to it until then. With Love Like That, that one I heard recently while I was going through some CD's I have and this one stood out compared to the rest which were hip hop. This one was... I dunno. It's like downtempo or something, I'm not an expert on that but it lacked anything related to hip hop. Turning it into DnB actually worked out better than I thought, so that's good. I started on it like a day or two after I originally heard it and it was basically done so I put it out there. And yes I did enjoy the hip hop!. It's just that this one was so much different than everything else on that album. 2. I put my remixes on Soundcloud and also on Bandcamp. I've been asked a few times for downloads for my music so here they are! Soundcloud: Bandcamp: https://espyvibe.bandcamp.com/music I recommend Bandcamp to just get it all in one go. It's all under "Hoofworks, Vol. 1" and includes some other goodies with it! Both should have free downloads enabled. On Bandcamp, you can pay what you want. And no I don't ask for your email if you want it for free. I do appreciate it if you do want to send some money my way but it's not necessary at all. Yeah both pages are bare and boring but I'll deal with that later. bleh 3. I've been gone working on an album! I can talk about this a bit now because one of the tracks that'll be included on it has been out for a bit now, promoted by VibePoniez. I don't remember if I ever talked about it here but I'll put it here anyways. It's just a little liquid DnB thing: The album is going to be a mixture of how I've been feeling emotionally and also thematically based around the backstory of Espy. Mostly DnB, a little bit of some other genres I like too but my own take on it all. It was actually in the works since waaaay earlier this year but I had to put it aside for a bit and wasn't really able to pick it back up until mid-late August. Kept it a secret for a bit but I've picked up a lot of steam since then so yeah. Sorry if I've been really quiet. I'm just busy working on this when I'm not occupied with anything else. Anyways, ETA: probably no later than spring 2026. After that, probably just singles or some EP's for a while, depends on what happens. More to come. Would you guys be interested if I wrote a backstory about my OC Espy Vibe? 4. I forgot I have a DJ controller. A DDJ FLX4. So... I might do something with that. Do people like mixes? I would need to practice some more (a lot more) but how would people feel if I recorded some DJ mixes in the future? Well it'll probably just be DnB that I'm into. But we'll just have to see what happens. That's all I think. I'm sorry if I have no idea what everyone's up to right now, I'm very much out of the loop regarding a lot of things. I fixed my email also, there was a slight issue on my end so I should be seeing notifications through there now.
  13. I'm definitely a night pony. It's probably because I don't get bothered at night vs. the day. Even at home there's just so much going on during the day, I hate to admit that I do get a bit annoyed when I'm in the middle of something and I'm asked repeatedly to do stuff. My sleep schedule is kinda weird now, I stay up from maybe 10 PM to 11 AM, then I sleep throughout the afternoon and evening right up to 10 PM. But it works for me, it lines up with my weird productive hours usually around 1 AM to maybe 5 AM. There's a memory I have that's related so I'll drop it here. Probably 10 years ago now I was on a family vacation at the beach and it felt much nicer to walk around at night on my own there. There was almost nothing really going on unlike during the day where there were a lot of people. The way the dark sky and the water seamlessly meet to form a singular black space is surreal. The only thing that reminded me I was still on a beach was the sound of the waves rolling back and forth just as it normally would during the day, but even then that was a bit eerie because you couldn't really tell where the sound was coming from. It's like it all meshed into it's own world and the tide was the entrance to that world. Never ever told anyone that I ever did this before. Of course the next day I got scolded for "not enjoying the vacation" because I just don't really like swimming or tanning or whatever else. But that night when I decided to walk around on the beach alone was probably the only time I really enjoyed myself.
  14. I bought some more vinyl records for my slowly growing drum and bass collection. But there's one with a silly story. I got this promo copy of Marcus Intalex - Afrika / Bridge The Gap, it's one of my personal bucket list records so I got it immediately when it popped up for sale in the US. Relatively rare stateside. Other than the typo ("bridge the gab") it's all good basically: But that's housed in this with the wrong label, look at the top right corner: And these were inside THIS: I think whoever I bought this from just used something they had laying around to protect it in shipping but it's all good at the end of the day. So now I just have this guy to look at me I guess.
  15. guys!! I'm sorry for not being around too much here, kinda busy working on some personal projects.

Theme The theme for this contest is Seasons! In preparation for 2026, we are looking for pony-themed site banners to use for the whole year. There will be a total of 4 winning submissions for each season which will be used accordingly as the main banner for the (rough) length of a season.

This isn't a must but helps a lot! Your banner(s) must be related to My Little Pony in some way Any generation of MLP is allowed Your banner(s) must feature MLP Forums somewhere It can be written/drawn out or use the official logo text (provided in the spoiler box below) Example: "MLP Forums" or "MLPForums.com" would be acceptable You are allowed to collage (combine/stitch together) vector art to create your banner Still frames from official media may also be used OC's and official characters may be used Parodies are also okay too as long as the main theme is followed Your banner(s) must follow the site rules; please keep it appropriate!!!

This can range from your submission being disqualified from this event to your account being banned from the site. Deadline Submissions for this contest will be open from August 5th, 2025 - September 5th, 2025. Judging MLPF staff will pick the best submission from each participant for each season as soon as possible. Afterwards, all of the handpicked best submissions will be voted on by the community and the winners will be announced afterwards. There will, at most, be four winners by the end of it. One for each season! The winning submissions will have their banners used accordingly as the default site banner throughout 2026. All participants may receive a badge for participating. Submitting a Banner To submit your banners for this contest, please go to the bottom of this page, select: Contest Banner Submissions -> 2025 We encourage submitting your banners in one submission rather than multiple to streamline the judging process.

  17. I'm sure we've all listened to some music before and thought it sounded like it was specifically made for a video game when it actually wasn't. If you've ever experienced this feel free to share below! Right now I'm giving the Total Science duo a proper listen through and ran across this one from them. Originally released in 2000 on their Advance album, this track has that weird video game OST quirkyness to it especially of that time period. But it was never made or featured in a video game afaik! Total Science - Jinx
