Twilightand Fluttershy actually seem to be keen for the classical sorts of music, since Fluttershy would enjoy the soothing sound of it while Twilight, with all her appreciation for history and the arts, must have an affinity for classical music. Perhaps also some jazz here and there.

Twilight I could see having a mixed interest. She could probably appreciate classical just like Rarity, but, I have a feeling she'd like certain pop songs and other genres as well. After all, you've seen how she likes to party.


Rainbow is probably Rock, not so sure about metal, but Rock most definitely. Pinkie is obviously dance, Applejack is country, Rarity is classical. Twilight I could imagine listening to Pop music, Fluttershy is kind of hard...I guess calming music fits the bill


I havent heard the mane six listen to music at any point in the show, I guess they dont listen much. In Sonic Rainboom, Rarity mentions that rd chose rock for her demo, so maybe rd litens to speed metal or nu. Or maybe she just thought it would be fitting to her routine, I dont know.


So anyway, I know this question gets tossed around a lot but some users like me haven't had the chance to put in our own speculation. As the title says, what genre of music do you think each pony would listen to?


In the show, the only type of music that ponies seem to know is cheery folk music, classical and party music. But if all genres of music were to exist in Equestria, what would the following ponies listen to?


Twi: Punk rock and grunge. She's antisocial and doesn't place a lot of value in friendship or companionship (at first.) I picture being like I was in 7th grade: locking herself in her room and reading while listening to Nirvana and Green Day (or Equestria's equivalent of Nirvana and Green Day)


Dashie: Classic rock, some more modern rock and maybe even a little Hard Glitch. Stuff with energy, stuff that feels like it intends to start moving and never stop. (Addendum: Examples include Shocktrooper by GHO57, Final Countdown, anything by The Offspring, but especially You're Gonna Go Far Kid. Or Equestrian equivalent.)


Rarity: Definitely classical. You were right about that. She'd listen to the Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera soundtracks (Equestrian equivalent), and dismiss most modern pop, rock, and electro as "noise."


Scratchie (Vinyl Scratch): She'd step on dubs all the time, it'd definitely be her favorite genre. However, as a DJ, she would expose herself to a variety of electro. Moombahton, Moombahcore, Hard Glitch, Dark Electro, Electro Rock, Electro Symphonic, Amenstep, Drum and Bass, Trap, Post-Life, etc. etc. etc.


Luna: My initial gut reaction was to say punk and grunge like Twi, but given her growth in Season 2 I think it'll be a bit more complicated than that. Before she became Nightmare Moon, she would most likely try to emulate Celestia's preferences, which would only frustrate her jealousy more. When she becomes Nightmare Moon, she'd get into metal, getting progressively heavier until culminating in grindcore (*vomits*). Once she is turned back at the beginning of Season 1, her music tastes would be all 90's alternative; Green Day, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, The Offspring, Alice in Chains. After S2E4, she would grow out of the angsty part of her life, but still like those musicians because the music is still good even if she doesn't relate to it. She would keep listening, but diversify her tastes with some classic and 80's rock, as well as some 90's artists she overlooked: The Stones, Guns and Roses, Pearl Jam, Jane's Addiction. Eventually discover electro, get into some of the more energetic stuff like Hard Glitch and Brostep, artists like GHO57, The Living Tombstone, and Skrillex, before discovering some of the more nuanced artists and really complex genres, migrating from Skrillex to Modestep to Knife Party, filling in her repertoire with the like of Glaze and Silva Hound. (Again, all artists substituted with Equestrian equivalent.) (Damn, I projected a little hard on this one, lol.)


Lyra: Weird shit, man. Practically unknown electro artists don't even themselves know where the hell their ideas come from, who aren't untalented but are just so avante garde that their music is incredibly divisive and just never catches on. She'll be accuse of being a hipster, but she could care less how popular her artists are. She just loves the music.


Rarity: She's more... unique than the other ponies, seems that she'd be into alternative/indie music, or at least be knowledgeable about it. But she'd be the one who claims to love whatever's cool at the moment while secretly enjoying something embarrassing.


Twilight: I see her as more of a smooth jazz, Kenny G fan. Something easy to study to, nothing that would disrupt her concentration. I mean, most of her time is spent either reading or studying, so nothing too punk.


Rarity: Oh, man, definitely soundtracks. Phantom of the Opera, Les Mis, all that good stuff. Probably some classical mixed in there as well. (Also, I have a headcanon that she sings "Holding Out for a Hero" when she's alone. )


Rainbow Dash: Definitely rock! I could see her jamming to The Offspring (hurr durr) or Queen. Something that could be looped for a while without stopping, since she needs something to work out to. ^^


Twilight: Definitely more along the lines of adult contemporary and R&B music. Stuff that isn't overly intense, but at the same time is good and sometimes complex music for a complex mind. In that sense, I could see Twi being a big indie rock fan as well.


Rainbow Dash: Alternative and Punk Rock, mixed in with a little metal. Intense stuff with driving rhythms for somebody who always moving and with high energy (when not napping). Could also put some dubstep and harder hitting electronic.


Hello and welcome Sergios . I hope you enjoy your time here. We already happened to have a thread for sharing genres of music we think the Mane Six would enjoy, and for convenience I have merged your topic with the older one. I have kept Sergios' title so that members are able to share genres for secondary and background characters as well.
