Here to mark the recent passing of two pony musicians: Nicolas Dominique and [voodoopony]
Nicolas Dominique was a pony musician from Poland and made primarily trance, progressive house, and ambient tracks, although he would dabble in other EDM genres as well. He was a longtimer in the music scene, making pony music since 2011, and about as consistent as you could get, always releasing at least one new track per month, almost as sure as the world turned round. He performed at multiple cons and events including Czequestria and Rave for the House of Belles, was featured on multiple A State of Sugar albums (who announced his passing), and ran a weekly show on PonyvilleFM called "Lantern in the Dark." I also recently found out he collabed with JayB for the 200th Glory of the Night set, a long-running trance set by Thorinair. May his trademark "addictive music" be playing in the heavens.

[voodoopony] was a pony musician also from times long past, also starting out in 2011 by posting his music on the "Everypony Radio channel" forum (
https://www.everypony.com/threads/voodoo-pony-music.198/). He released quite a number of triphop, downtempo, and ambient tracks, albums, and remixes of other pony musicians' songs, his most widely known album being Pincushion. I was always quite a fan myself because of the kind of edgy, creepy vibe the songs gave off, almost industrial feeling at times, and it's rumored he and another musician worked with SGaP during The Standard Model days. It seems he deleted many of his songs over the years, but continued releasing music as Voodeedoo, his previous alias from before pony. According to a friend who knew him, he unfortunately passed sometime last year, but his music lives on in those who remember him.
