fuck fuck fuck yes thank you OP
sgap is probably my favorite artistat all
Anymore of these?
>>25880511
nopebut sorceress girl is unironically my favorite song at all
Why the fuck does he keep himself quiet and not talk to anyone?
Why does he bring a mystery?
Why does he wear the mask?
Don't want to flame, I like his stuff, but I feel like it's way overhyped, people turn it into the second coming of jesus. His own subreddit? Really?
>>25880560
I don't know man. Go watch the convention panel he was on. He's a tiny little Japanese dude and quite as can be.
>>25880568
>overhyped
You know it and I'll be on that train till I die
I don't know why but I absolutely adore his work. The pony vocal synth songs and his original vocal tracks. Space pony, E30, E48, RD RA and Music Lovers all have over 5k plays each in my itunes library
It really is Christmas.
Dashy/Hearth's Warming Eve just came on my playlist when I saw this thread.
The Standard Model is my favorite album. Period. Even considering non-pony related music. I just love it. It makes me feel safe and comfortable. It takes me to another place.

Link to this panel plsssss
>>25880660
Its kind of cringey and SGaP looks and feels really uncomfortable. Hes in the red shirt.

gets me every time
>new sgap
Wow a really thought he was dead.
I hope we get to hear from some other older musiciasn like NACP, if anyone even remembers his stuff.
>>25880739
>NACP
>PPS
>SGaP
They will all come back for good.One day
>>25880749
I don't think I've heard NACP, or maybe I just can't remember what that stands for? Links?
>>25880705
My god 2012 feels like 10 years ago.
SGAP is introduced at 32:00.
I love that he fucking SLAMS Saber as soon as he comes on.
That was unexpectedly funny.
I don't really like Saber but Paleo is a cool guy.
SGAP is so quiet and cute thanks for this link.

I tried linking it at that time frame. Guess it didn't work.
2012 does feel fucking forever ago in this fandom. Don't like Saber to much either.
>>25880800
Oh yes I do remember this. I just didn't put the acronym together.
A bunch of Facexplodie tracks either disappeared or went unlisted this year. I had them saved but lost them too. I messaged Brony Music Archive about it but to my knowledge they haven't been posted.
SapphireShores disappeared from YouTube literally a day after I downloaded most of their tracks.

"Nothing's easy, nothing's too hard"
>>25880313
Not a huge fan, but still. Cool!
>>25880568
Thank God, I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I can't listen to more than ten seconds of his music without getting bored; it's like a fucking never ending Adult Swim bump. His use of sampling the show's dialog is definitely interesting, but it gets old very quickly. I feel like the majority of his fans are armchair intellectuals that believe his work has all these 6deep8u hidden meanings who are unaware that ambient has been a real genre of electronic music for fucking years.
To each their own, though; you're allowed to like things I don't. I just agree with >>25880568 that he's hardly the second coming of Christ and far from the genius people seem to worship him as.
>>25882109
SGaP has made lots of different songs in different genres m8
>>25882109
what music isn't boring to you then?
>>25880339
this should be posted more
>>25882109
"I have never listened to an entire song by this guy but I can say with pretty much complete certainty he's overrated."
That's some pretty rock solid criticism there. Are you sure you're not one of those armchair intellectuals you were talking about?
>>25883334
>I can't listen to more than ten seconds
This is a figure of speech, retard.
I'm sorry, but it feels that nearly every one of his tracks that I've ever listened to or have been linked to has, to me, been wholly unimpressive and generally immemorable. The entirety of "The Standard Model" sounds like a 30-minute Adult Swim bumper, and his lyrics (for those songs in his catalog which have them) come across as having been written by someone who is trying way too hard to be deep. I'd bet it's the kind of music that sounds a thousand times better if you're high.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he's completely awful. It's okay to like what I don't like. I just agree with >>25880568 that the pedestal people put him on is way too high.
>>25883779
So what you're saying is you don't understand the appeal?
Personally SGaP never quite clicked for me. I enjoy NCAP, PPS, I like what's Oodorato putting out, I still follow Makkon even though he updates with new stuff only like once a year. Replacer's stuff is also nice. But SGaP... I dunno, in the Standard Model I love the instrumentals but don't like the voice splitting, in the others I can't get used to the vocals...
But anyway, what even happened to him? Is it known why he suddenly disappeared and deleted his songs?
bump for good music
woah
>>25884021
He's just a mysterious mofo. He would always delete or hide his old songs after he made new ones. Other musicians seemed to have a lot of respect for him but I think they agree he's overrated. I just can't help but like him though. I like his stuff with voice splitting the most actually, but Space Pony also blows me away, especially this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52JEz5YkPgU.
This is the last confirmed thing SGAP released (the ones in OP are supposedly old): http://sogreatandpowerful.com/SoGreatandPowerful%20-%20Untitled%203.mp3
I agree though, we should just really have a fandom music general thread. This board is so obsessed with generals but I very rarely can find an active thread talking about music (which is my favorite part of the fandom).
