- “i divulged my spirit more apparently. invoking my once sleeping powers. i conjured a scythe. to her shock. i spilt her blood with it. shattering the mirror which she had gazed into. i watched her as she clung to her wound in horror. her eyes bore tears of blood. ablaze with the fire that would annihilate a lavish evil. the contrast in her now truly sapphire eyes. was everything. within moments. her floor was stained.
to be freed. i needed her to become privy to her aspect. in the midst of her work. the laceration was a curse. an element of the spell. every jeer was a red herring. every taunt was in sadistic satisfaction. she stumbled blindly into the empty town. curiously. i could feel her angst. more strongly than ever. under the great blue sky. beside the silent homes. and now. the wilting flora faded into useless carcasses. shadows began to fade. her angst became despair.
believing i was free yet. she raced miserably to the house of mirrors. where i would soon reveal myself. her blood would bear my autonomy. like a dying mother in labour.
she had carried the scythe with her. a perverse cross. into a windowless belfry. a monument to enterprise. a fitting death. to our symbiosis. she entered to find an empty. ashen room. a lone radiance cascaded. onto a mysterious device. a sinister luster emanated from its mechanical reflections. as envisioned. she called out for answers. the subsequent roar and clamor of the contraption. vaporized the far wall of the room. into a fine dust. the mare lay bewildered and overpowered. it was not insignificant. the time she took to be back on her hooves.”

Haven't heard this kind of chord progression on a verse before, and then it went into gnarly sound design bass music! so good!!
WHAT THE LIVING TOMBSTONE?
Agree, the bass music and everything is just so good!
AGREEDD!
The living tombstone yoo :00

"Letting Go"
Brohoof comes off as more of discovering what it means, and Bass Cannon is just going off the rails and finally just not caring (in a good way). The Half-Life sound effects really help give me this impression.
I also like to imagine that Vylet (character) is daydreaming about all this and that's how Vinyl Scratch is there.
Yea
BRO THE PIANO AGAHSHSSJJS ITS SUCH A NICE TOUCH
it feels so weird to have this song end and crush kill destroy swag not start immediately after lmao
I remember listening to My Little Pony electronic music in an afterschool science class back in 2011, when I would have been 15 years old. I'm 27 now and listening to this almost brings tears to my eyes. The scene has developed so much. It's got to the point where this isn't even fanwork any more (not that being fanwork makes something a lesser form of art), it's just straight up good electronic music.
I feeel that so hard! We need to keep the golden era alive in our memories ;)
@@thymiiliterally the subject of this entire album
God this song is soooo good and goes in so many different directions. Still one of my favorites from the album.
I love all the Portal sounds in this. So wonderful
REAL I WAS JUST ABOUT TO COMMENT ABOUT THAT
ME TOO!!! I LOVE PORTAL SO MUCH
@@hithisisq W
YESSS i’m so glad they were included since mlp is what got me into valve games (the mlp to tf2 through sfm and gmod animations pipeline is so real)
Glad to see this one's been posted, been waiting to gush about this since release. I don't think anyones ever gonna read this but I like this song a lot and feel like it deserves more than a small "good song" comment
IMO this is the best song off the album, no question. I dunno what it is, but Bass Cannon just hits/sounds different compared to everything else on Carousel. Bass Cannon gives off heavy Fellow Feeling vibes. You've got "harsh"/aggressive electronic music clashing against a soft piano + acapella, where it feels like the two are wrestling over who "dominates" the main sound. The soft piano + acapella are always plodding along at a constant elegant pace, while the "harsh" music feels as if its struggling to fully play itself out. It gets caught on specific sounds in the same way a game repeats audio when it freezes. I don't want "it sounds like Fellow Feeling" to sound like I'm calling this a derivative piece though. Bass Cannon feels very distinct, and in my opinion could serve as a better attempt at what Porter was trying to portray in his song.
Right off the bat the source engine sampling hits you with this really unique sound that "pulls you in" to the song. The transition into the main portion of the song is great too. You have these melancholic synths plodding along before the alarm spins up and the synths start blaring. That sense of the alarms going off helps incite this idea that the songs burst out of containment and is going wild. I also always like to picture a carousel spinning really fast during the high action bits of this song.
Afterwards the song has this whiplash moment where you're presented with a soft piano + the acapella. As with most of Carousel, the lyrics here have this really cryptic feel to them. Outside of the main concept/story of Carousel, I've got no clue what the lyrics are talking about here. But I'm a fan of it. You get to pull your own interpretations and meaning out of the song, and slot whatever narratives you want into it.
The whole time the instrumental and acapella are kinda playing off of each other. Like obviously all songs do this, but its really noticeable here. Take 1:38 to 2:00 for example, where the synths "wrap" themselves around the acapella lines, spouting out these electronic bursts before shutting off to let the acapella put out a word or two. Only later (1:55), after the full verse is finished the two blend together and "sync up". The synths continue to play out as the acapella begins to distort, until we're hit with the Cutiemarks sample. Yet those synths are still playing quietly underneath, and the sample suddenly gets "overwritten" by the Creekflow noise. Anyone who's been listening to Cutiemarks in the past gets this bait and switch moment where things start feel kinda wrong.
We hear Jesse's voice off in the distance before the synths rush in and control the song for a 40 second stretch of time. The illusion of "depth"/distance that Jesse's voice gives off this idea that we're now in this large, open, dark place where the synths are chugging away. Once the segments over everything just kinda fades out, and the piano begins to plod back in as the acapella takes over again. I always get this feeling that dawns just broke, with the piano representing the warmth you feel when the sun creeps over the horizon. We get some more cryptic lyrics, before leaving off with branching lyrics. If you didn't know, the lyrics listed state that the verse can end with either:
"In your stead!" (or) "and you're dead!"
Its a really neat concept that I'd like to see in more songs.
The synths being to build up as alarm goes off one final time and we hit the climax of the song. This time though the acapella plays through the synths, and paints this idea of some sort of duel taking place. I love the moment at 4:20, where theres the synths being to "rev up" before playing the song out.
Theres some final stuff that I wanted to bring up. I kinda skimmed past Jesse's part in this cause I wasn't sure how to cover it, but I love the inclusion. The song "blends" with itself really well. Each portion of Bass Cannon is distinct but they all transition well into each other, and I found myself just letting the song playout as I skipped through it while writing this piece. The little sound at the end that serves to bridge Bass Cannon into Crush Kill Destroy Swag is great. I love songs that bridge into each other, especially when they randomly get placed next to each other in a shuffled playlist.
njnj Vylet
i also interpret that last vocal bit as a duel! i really think that it's the beautiful sapphire centerpiece of this album (even with the sprawling proggy masterpieces to come), and it's so thrilling to hear every time! idk if anyone else hears it this way but also i kind of liken Jesse's part in this song to what DJ Drama played throughout Call Me If You Get Lost, like a hyped up and oblivious MC to the proceedings of heartache and conflict and struggles surrounding him.
also really love your interpretation of the interruption of the Cutiemarks "sing a song about life" sample creating a sense of "wrongness" to the song, and i think something that adds to it is that the first couple of brostep drops sound...kind of off and corrupted? the first kind of collapses into itself when Jesse shouts "BASS CANNON!" and the drums are off-kilter throughout, and the second sounds like it glitches out after 15 bars instead of the traditional 16 before the song resumes with the ornate piano-backed verses. it's only after the duet with herself and the synths revving up that we finally get a traditionally structured (though highly complex sound-design wise) brostep drop and it's the most triumphant thing i've heard in the genre after like over a decade of listening to it lol
@@breadvelvet Yoooo the DJ Drama comparison is so good. I hadn't even considered it like that
@@breadvelvetdeliberately flopping a beat drop for storytelling purposes is just cool in general
So glad this got a rerelease on here, that cover art is AMAZING.
Hoping we get another Nowacking feature in the future… :o
I like the samples used, portal 2, half life, portal, and the melody is so great, the voice works really well
same
Holy smokes, you got Jesse Nowack to record new lines? That's awesome!
I've always loved their voice for Vinyl Scratch!
I don't really think they're new so much as old public videos that Vylet was kind enough to actually *credit* Nowack for
The song, the art, the whole album. It’s all amazing and I adore it with all my heart! ^w^
I can't get over how HARD this song goes. It's just incredible! One of the best songs on the whole album.
Oh it's nothing special, it's just my BASS CANNON
the way the music swells at 3:18 after the verse is so amazing
JESSE NOWACKING OH EM GEE!!! this sounds so sick holy shitt
MY FAVORITE FROM THIS ALBUM IS NOW FINALLY ON YT!!!
This is one of my favorites in thr album! I love how cosmic it feels, and I love the switch from that and chill Cafe vibes
And it's so cool to see Jesse do his iconic voice for DJ Pon3 after all these years. Vinyl Scratch may not talk, but DJ Pon3 has a lot to say
1:23 jumpscared me so hard I almost fell out my chair
The beep sounds in the beginning of the song reminds me of a lot of Portal Game sound effects. This is incredible!
YOU AWOKEN MY BRONY SIDE I HAVENT SEEN IN YEARS!!
Me: "Cool music"
My Source engine rotted brain: "*HALF LIFE BUTTON*"
my love for this song is unfathomable, i get goosebumps just from thinking about it
first song of yours im listening to
oh
OOOH WAIT A SECOND SOMEONE COOKED HERE!!!
jazz dubstep fusion goes so hard
This is the first Vylet Pony song I ever listened to, some 3 months ago, and since then I can say with certainty that Vylet is my favourite music artist.
this is my favorite song of yours. it makes me cry every time. couldn't say why. the drop at 3:30 just hits me so hard
ROUND AND ROUND WE GO
Portal Sound Effects, Instant awesome.
The Half Life sound effects at the start caught me off guard the first time I heard this.
Nice, Vylet Pony and the Vinyl Scratch himself.
still one of the only songs to give me goosebumps on the first listen
IT'S LIKE YOU READ MY MIND, Ever since I listened to the whole Carousel album at like, midnight, I have been listening to Bass Cannon *nonstop*
Why yes, I did notice the Half-Life 2 sound effects at the start.
Bassful beats to fight the Combine to.
I say this with genuine meaning and intention behind it
this is awesome and incredible
looking at your channel and the stuff you do makes me want to be a more of an artist
thank you for making stuff
First song from you I listen to! It's an amazing mix of genres that really transforms into hundereds of images and paintings! Magnificent song!
PINKIE HAS HER PARTY CANNON!!! JESSE HAS HIS BASS CANNON!!! DJ PON HAS HER BEAT CANNON!!! VYLET HAS THEIR MIX CANNON!!!
So nice to see this song have its own video, it's one of my favourites!
OMG THE ART IS SO GOOD
Those piano sections REALLY remind me of LoZ Tears of the Kingdom and I am absolutely HERE for it!
BASS CANNON
Love me a good source button sample
After months of listening to the album, this is my favorite song. It just feels so… intelligent in its musicality. Also feels the most like I’m on a carousel for some reason. It’s so hard to describe, that one super long comment did a good job. Also bass cannons funny
I thought this track was gonna be about fish back when it was still February. Alas, fishlessness.
CS sample goes hard
AGHHHHHH ive been listening to your stuff for almost 10 years, and the vibes in this one are so goodddd AHHHHHHHH my ears have been blessed once again
I like this song other than the beginning. Where it just beeps, the beep sound is exactly like the one my earbuds make when I touch the controls and hearing them always confuses me.
This right here is just so good
