Something about early fandom music just hits different. I think there was this sense of innocence and fun to the music, even when the subject matter was serious. Truly a magical time for both bronies and the Internet at large.
The early days of the fandom were undoubtedly the best. I get such nostalgic/sad feelings thinking about them. How I wish I could relieve those memories..
me too pal, I miss the with all my heart, it's so horrible to ses such talent go forgotten, such amazing memories going numb, I feel sad and nostalgic, but also happy that I lived it all !
Today, on the 11th of june 2024, 13 years after release, The stars will aid her escape has finnaly reached 300k views. Congrats Iamnotacleverpony. I don't know if you are still here to witness this achievement or not, but us fans certainly are. While this deserves way more views, we will slowly but surely get there. First 500k, then 1 million. It may take another 30 years, but we will be there. Untill then fellow bronies. May the stars aid you in your journey.
I stopped following the fandom and MLP years ago, but the music from the early years of it is still some of my favorite. I love to come back and listen to tracks like this and reflect on all the emotions they made me feel at the time.
Same here! Its very strange to think this is from almost 9 years ago or so! It’s been a long time since I was in the fandom, but this song occasionally comes to mind and brings back good memories/emotions
I have never been interested in MLP, I only found this song through the HOI4 mod. But I get this weird 2011-14 nostalgia from this piece, like I have heard this in my head when I was Young, even tho I have never set a foot in the shows story. I can see by the comments that u are deader than a 2000's pop star, but this track brings a smile to my face, and forgotten memories of a lost time to my mind
Forgotten, indeed. I come here from time to time to listen to all the lost memories of the zenith of this fandom. Nowadays music is not the same. Musicians are better at production, but their music is empty on something and I can't really tell what is it. This one was from an era when we joked about 2 factions and a civil war. Good times.
I hath come here straight from conquering the whole equestria, every HoI4 player should know about this mod, it is better made than 99% of others. And also the soundtrack isnt half bad....
Iirc this song plays only on single occasion: if Changelings conquer Equestria, but Reichskomissar Lilac manages to blend pony and changeling cultures in one and break free from Chrysalis. Truly stars aided her escape.
@@martinp1054 After some verification can say that it's indeed in Pony soundtrack, while RK has Changeling culture, but has this soundtrack attached to the event, representing melding cultures.
Listening through all your music again, this one is probably my favorite. There is just so much emotion strewn throughout, it's hard not to get wrapped up in it =D I remember many a night having this playing in the background while I work on art or music & other things~ A very inspirational song, and one of my favorites =)
i wish NACP still made music :( not even necessarily mlp related, she just had such an undeniable and rare fucking talent. actually looking so hard to find her online but she really went under the radar, lol. thank you NACP for making my sad brony childhood badass
Finally freakin found it! I heard it in a video on YT, where a person was playing "Hearts of Iron 4 Equestria At War" (and because it wasn't me who was playing but the other person, I couldn't just check in-game what was the name of this song). Wanted to get a name of it, and to do it, had to download the mod and browse the song files to find it. And here I did, neat. Great work friend, really nice tune.
Such a powerful track. To this day I still listen in complete awe, reflecting on the story of the two sisters, just like I did the first time I heard it, nearly a decade ago.
It was better and unlike the "rushed for money" crap we deal at the time the songs tried to create an atmosphere around the characters. If you were to take the fandom in its current state and move it to the eraly stages nothing good would come out of it.
As one of the guys behind the MLP Music Archive you have no idea how painfull it is to deal with the declne of the musical side of the fandom. Not only do they start making music for money which would be okay if it werent for them using MLP in such a shameless way (Manehattan by TheLivingTombstone being a prime example), they are also complaining a lot, If only they were like NACP who left saying goodbye without being a bitch about it.
I have to tell you, Writing did the same thing two years back. It was sad, really, we were booming and suddenly writers started dropping like flies. We of course can't generate money and don't headline events, so the moment our comparatively small fanbases get bored, we suffer.
Listening to this is making me remember how inspired MLP made me for so many things that I hold dear to myself today. It isn't just nostalgia. It's rediscovery.
One of the first MLP fandom tracks I ever listened to. This gives me the fuzzies and makes me want to puke listening to it, it brings back too many memories of Middle School with my iPod Touch listening to this
techguy348 I was in High School when this was the newest track from the Fandom. 10th grade to be exact. I remember I had this on my iPod Touch and I was vacationing in Florida at the time. Listening to this and other such tracks like "Lower the Moon" "Love Me Cheerlie" "At the Gala" I'm not as active in the fandom as I used to be, but Oh the nostalgia hits me like a brick with these tunes.
I remember when this first came out... such a shame he never came back.. dA, youtube... he's gone and i feel so sad that he may have died and eqd didnt pay any attention to this wonderful musician after...
SnowFireBlues no, she didn't die, but she was having medical problems and couldn't continue her online life and also, it's a male to female, not transgender. she posted on her deviantart before it shut down that after surgery she now uses female pronouns.
You're not doing yourself any favors by pushing a fictional character's name (considered unusual in our universe) on another person. That's cringeworthy.
Damn this song is somehow... so magical. I don't know the words to describe it. I would just like to say that if you one day put your album on sell, I would pay 20% more than the retail price.
still waiting, hoping, you'll return to make music like this. Not brony music, but this genre.. it's amazing and I wish I knew of more musicians that made music akin to this.
Its like im listening to everything i have ever experienced.. All the great games, movies, sights and sounds.. Felt like an awesomely undescribable Nostalgia trip. Thank you good sir. *brohoof*
Wow. I don't know how you did it, but you got the perfect mix on this song. There is no instrument that is too quiet or too loud; it all blends together perfectly and you can hear each note played by each instrument. My only complaint would be that the sound you used for the drums makes it sound like my speakers are dying :P
Huh, the piano arpeggios in the beginning remind me of the music from Metroid Prime. Comparison aside, I love how you balanced the piano, synth, and percussion parts in this song. I could totally imagine choreographing a dance routine to it! ^__^ Brony power!
*brohoof* Definitely my favorite piece of yours yet. I'm particularly fond of how your music hints at setting depth, something most wouldn't really think about for a cartoon like this. Can't wait to hear more from you!
Shut up and take my money. This is amazing, my ipod has pretty much been on loop with Hydra Pulse since it came out and now this, thank you good sir for creating this masterpiece.
@BrainDS2 To be fair, if anti-mlp or trolls came to this video they would dislike it whether it was mentioned there are 0 dislikes or not. Just the fact that they find a popular video with 0 dislikes gets them aroused. Anywho, I would also like to mention that this music is fantastic.
I've listened to this song thousands of times. Every time it remains just as sweet, true and pure. It's been a year since I first heard it and it's only gotten better. Thank you. This is the best piece of music I have ever heard.
I must say, I liked the first version of this, but it was lacking something. However this isn't lacking in any way. I love it, and please continue to make more.
This reminds me of fanon Luna.. And it saddens me.. Anyway.. Tis right here, is gold. Amazing song, incredibly relaxing, etc etc etc. This is somewhat reminds me of the Tallon IV soundtrack from Metroid Prime :o
Finding this video feels like uncovering an ancient relic
Something about early fandom music just hits different. I think there was this sense of innocence and fun to the music, even when the subject matter was serious. Truly a magical time for both bronies and the Internet at large.
Hearts of Iron 4 Equestria At War brought me here

The early days of the fandom were undoubtedly the best. I get such nostalgic/sad feelings thinking about them. How I wish I could relieve those memories..
+Wolveon just be happy the fandom is still going :)
+Wolveon Ikr, I miss those days so much
me too pal, I miss the with all my heart, it's so horrible to ses such talent go forgotten, such amazing memories going numb, I feel sad and nostalgic, but also happy that I lived it all !
Season 9
The magic was inside you all along
Perfect music for pushing the Changelings right back to where they came from.
Then you get the event "supernova" and everything goes out of control real quick... ^^

Indeed.
@Aedion Ashryver I physically can't
Same here! Its very strange to think this is from almost 9 years ago or so! It’s been a long time since I was in the fandom, but this song occasionally comes to mind and brings back good memories/emotions
I still classify myself in the community, I don't know why so many people gave up on it...
I can't even listen this song anymore.. every time I hear it it gives me such a strong nostalgia feeling.. But it's amazing. Spectacular!
Wow wow this is...this awesome! Super epic and ah...sad :)
I saw on a brony music wiki-kind of thing that NACP is... or was, 2 years ago, back. soundcloud.com/vela208
***** Same here brother, I got almost saf thinking about the good old day, thanks god places like equestria daily and /mlp/ still exist!
hello yes it's nostalgia kicking 10 years later
"It only a simple song, nothing crazy"
The team music about to drop the most on fire song
I have never been interested in MLP, I only found this song through the HOI4 mod.

@@TovKafur or, every time the soundtrack loops? Its just in the soundtrack too....
Much less epic, but true
@@martinp1054 After some verification can say that it's indeed in Pony soundtrack, while RK has Changeling culture, but has this soundtrack attached to the event, representing melding cultures.
Its been a while....
I was only in the fandom for half of the lifetime of this song yet I feel a huge sense of nostalgia for it.
Listening through all your music again, this one is probably my favorite. There is just so much emotion strewn throughout, it's hard not to get wrapped up in it =D
I remember many a night having this playing in the background while I work on art or music & other things~ A very inspirational song, and one of my favorites =)
I want cleverpony back :/
I don't think I know a soul in this fandom who _doesn't_ want Cleverpony back ;w;
Regardless though, I hope they are doing well wherever they are ^^
I found this around 1.5 weeks ago because of Hearts of Iron 4: Equestria at War Mod. It's masterpiece.
It's been almost four hears since I discovered your music, I still get back to it sometimes and it makes me timetravel. I miss this time.. uwu
"On the longest day of the 1000th year, the stars will aid in her escape."

Now play the mod :)
Such a powerful track. To this day I still listen in complete awe, reflecting on the story of the two sisters, just like I did the first time I heard it, nearly a decade ago.
4th may 2011? how could i miss this beautiful song for so long?
10/10 would click on the "loop" button
Wow early brony music was the best
It was better and unlike the "rushed for money" crap we deal at the time the songs tried to create an atmosphere around the characters. If you were to take the fandom in its current state and move it to the eraly stages nothing good would come out of it.
Glad some people agree with how I feel about Brony music post-2012.
Pity NaCP has put down their keyboard. :/

EdEn CoRa Good to know I'm not the only one who feels the same way.
Listening to this is making me remember how inspired MLP made me for so many things that I hold dear to myself today. It isn't just nostalgia. It's rediscovery.
goes hard asf. Nice work
How funny will it be if this song appears in a mod for a WW2 map game where you can play as a pony and commit racial genocide. Truly wacky.

Probably one of the best fan-made orginal songs I've ever had the pleasure to listen to. Thank you.
I remember when this first came out... such a shame he never came back.. dA, youtube... he's gone and i feel so sad that he may have died and eqd didnt pay any attention to this wonderful musician after...
pardon me 'n.n *she
male to female transexual :)
+mlp linky wait wat? to start: he/she died? 2nd he/she was transgender (nothing against it, but it IS unusual. Difference is not equals to bad)
SnowFireBlues no, she didn't die, but she was having medical problems and couldn't continue her online life and also, it's a male to female, not transgender. she posted on her deviantart before it shut down that after surgery she now uses female pronouns.
'tis sad to hear a musician of such great talent had to quit due to circumstances of life. I wish her the best.
41%
A throw-back to more mythical days...
Back when things were better eh? Thinking about it makes me wonder where my last 9 years have gone.
Your songs already filled my heart with fleeting nostalgia back then. Imagine how strong the feels must be five years later. :D
the feels are definitely still strong now
+
Huge nostalgia listening to this again. Hope you're doing well.
This is the absolute definition of good music. I'm proud to be in the herd with you.
Are you still in the herd?
@@communistdeer ... person probably moved on.. or died.. you never know, but they must still be in the herd. person must have met their real destiny.
earlier, my frozen heart shattered from overwhelming cuteness. now from the wonder of this song, it is made whole again.
I couldn't decide weather I liked For The New Lunar Republic or Hydra Pulse better. Thank you for no longer making me ponder that.
My aunt had two daughters; twins, in fact.
I suggested she name them Celestia & Luna.
She did.
I think I just won the universe.
How's the bullying coming along?
You're not doing yourself any favors by pushing a fictional character's name (considered unusual in our universe) on another person. That's cringeworthy.
Honestly based, the only people who'll get the reference are people who know the show well.
I know this comment is 8 years old, but somewhere out there, two eight year olds probably really fucking hate their cousin lmao.
Insane Clown Ponies Agreed
This is how it began. One mans inspiration lead to so much better future, and best to get out of it is yet to come. Thank you dude, you are the boss
I keep coming back to these. I wish iamnacp came back
I can't help it, this music males me want to invade Stalliongrad with my new Comet tanks...
who's here from Equestria at war i wonder?
I am! /)
Damn this song is somehow... so magical. I don't know the words to describe it. I would just like to say that if you one day put your album on sell, I would pay 20% more than the retail price.

Beautiful
sadly enough this year 2019 marks the end of gen 4 series of mlp let us cherish the memories
Love this song, only discovered it this year
*Listens to first minute*
Hm. Not bad. Could be better.
*1:02** happens*
WOOOOAAAAH DUUUUUUDE.
My thoughts exactly XD
this song just hits different than all the other equistria at war songs
I swear all the luna tracks just make me feel so at peace and calm
I miss the good old times
still waiting, hoping, you'll return to make music like this. Not brony music, but this genre.. it's amazing and I wish I knew of more musicians that made music akin to this.
1:02
"Houston we have a problem"
This give me a flash back of joy i had with this when i finaly broke totaly the defence of Griffonian republic as Empire of Griffonia
Its like im listening to everything i have ever experienced..
All the great games, movies, sights and sounds..
Felt like an awesomely undescribable Nostalgia trip.
Thank you good sir. *brohoof*

Glad to see people are still coming here. May Notacleverpony never be forgotten!
I love this soo much
Who could think this song is similar to Emdasche's remix of the Bittercold in Gates to Infinity?
The tone is so similar. I like it.
This music is why I had the best summer ever..
That's very beautiful
It's not just very beautiful, it's охуенно!
@@aflareone9176 даже так)
Ох, хоть кто то мне отвечает)
The title of this track invokes such epic chills... Then the track starts, and it just comes together like fuckin' apple pie.
I love this. The beginning is beautiful, and the rest is just epic. Pure awesomeness.
Huh, the piano arpeggios in the beginning remind me of the music from Metroid Prime. Comparison aside, I love how you balanced the piano, synth, and percussion parts in this song. I could totally imagine choreographing a dance routine to it! ^__^
Brony power!
Equestria at War, hello
I miss you, man
Makkon I miss YOU.
sends a chill down my spine every time. feels amazing man
happy ten years c:
*brohoof* Definitely my favorite piece of yours yet. I'm particularly fond of how your music hints at setting depth, something most wouldn't really think about for a cartoon like this. Can't wait to hear more from you!
Every time I turn this song on I get lost it in. This is how great music should be. You are amazing. *Bows*
I'm listening to this song right now.
It's nighttime, the sky is clear, and I can see the full moon.
Amazing.
why... why is this good
Shut up and take my money. This is amazing, my ipod has pretty much been on loop with Hydra Pulse since it came out and now this, thank you good sir for creating this masterpiece.
Its.... beautiful
1:02 Lincoln Loud: (confused) Houston, we have a problem.
listening to it all in nostalgia now. ill always miss you because you were one of the first brony musicians i found. i owe you a lot.
Still freaking awsome when first hearing this
what a memories
I can not possibly comprehend how this only has 58,000 views. Seriously.
I read this in Algalon the Observer's Voice from Wow... You know.. I could see him helping out Luna.
200k views and 2k likes does not mean only 1% of people have liked this music. It means 2k of us have listened to this music 100 times.
WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD AT MAKING MUSIC.
Really great theme. It was nice to be able to track it down from the HoI4 mod to here.
This is epic.
Wow, first time listen, and this is really fucking good!
I faved this so long.
Yes, nostalgia is a wounderful thing.
Just gotta say man, your music is very good
That opening gave me chills.
How old is it... How good is it...
Yo why the hell did heyday pony music fuck so hard
I shed man tears listening to the piano intro
0 dislikes.
the internet seems to have gotten more intelligent about the definition of awesome.
This track touched my inner world, I bow before you cause, you sir, ARE A GENIUS!
@BrainDS2 To be fair, if anti-mlp or trolls came to this video they would dislike it whether it was mentioned there are 0 dislikes or not. Just the fact that they find a popular video with 0 dislikes gets them aroused.
Anywho, I would also like to mention that this music is fantastic.
iamnotacleverpony...You sir, are a legend.
@Sparkz1607 I am so jealous of the names. Those are completely awesome!
I feel like i should become nightmare moon again. I love the music
I know its been said a thousand times but. I love you Bronies
I've listened to this song thousands of times. Every time it remains just as sweet, true and pure. It's been a year since I first heard it and it's only gotten better.
Thank you. This is the best piece of music I have ever heard.
I must say, I liked the first version of this, but it was lacking something. However this isn't lacking in any way. I love it, and please continue to make more.
Please start making music again.
This reminds me of fanon Luna.. And it saddens me..
Anyway.. Tis right here, is gold. Amazing song, incredibly relaxing, etc etc etc. This is somewhat reminds me of the Tallon IV soundtrack from Metroid Prime :o
love this version!
Why u call urself not a clever pony? Ur freaking brilliant!
Woot! Keep up the good work, and you ARE a clever pony to come up with this. Totally helps me write my fanfic!
