Mane Six themes []
AcousticBrony's original project was creating instrumental themes for each of the mane six ponies which incorpore melodies from the show. Most of the themes were finished early on, but it took significantly longer for them to complete Pinkie's theme. By view count these remain Acoustic Brony's most popular solo material.

| Type/genre | Rock |
"Spectrum" is by far AcousticBrony's most popular solo song. The song is characterized by its tendency to switch between post-rock and hard rock-based passages, representing different aspects of Rainbow Dash such as her laziness and her love of speed. As Rainbow Dash lacked any songs at the time this was made, it is based around her passages from Winter Wrap Up and At the Gala.
Spectrum was featured in the "Starscream vs. Rainbow Dash" episode of ScrewAttack.com's Death Battle.
