Pony Music Library 39: "Beyond Her Garden"

What with everything that's been happening lately, it's been almost a month since I've added to the PML. That's too long! Today, a real Golden (Harvest) Oldie:


What? "Beyond Her Garden"

Who? WoodenToaster/Glaze

Which? Original song

When? October 2011

Why? Nostalgia has a lot to do with this one, as "Beyond Her Garden" was one of the first brony songs I ever heard, back in spring 2012 – and it wasn't new even then! This sort of somewhat glitchy electronic... stuff (you can see my technical knowledge is coming on apace) has rarely been my favourite genre, but I like a surprising amount of such songs in this fandom. Why this one in particular, then? I don't know. But it's still the best Carrot Top song around, more than five years after it arrived.

  2. Was going to say this was electroclash, but now that I think about it, it's too modern feeling. I guess it's kinda glitched-out vocal trance.

  3. I still listen to this quite regularly. Most of Wooden Toaster/Glaze's stuff holds up.

    1. That's true. I expect if I go on with this long enough, there'll be more of his songs.

  4. I really wish I liked this song more, given that it's basically the most famous Carrot Top thing out there. Sadly, "kinda glitched-out vocal trance" isn't really my jam. It still makes me happy that it exists, though.

    1. It isn't my jam, either. It's weird: I get this a lot in the fandom. Alex S's remix of the show theme, for example, is nothing like my usual style of music, yet I've come to find it immensely catchy.
