BEFORE YOU CONTINUE
I am unable to pay anyone for anything for this project as I gain no money from these videos and this is just me trying to complete a fun passion project of mine. I'd also like to keep things pretty casual. This is all for fun, so I'd like to keep things calm and relaxed. Lastly, this is my first project, so I apologize for anything I get wrong or errors I make. I'm trying my best.
INTRODUCTION
I am an aspiring Friday Night Funkin' lyrics writer, and I am looking to up my game with voice actors voicing all the mod's characters (almost every song released so far)! For those of you unfamiliar with the Friday Night Funkin', it is a popular mania rhythm game inspired by Newgrounds, starring a blue-haired boy trying to win over the heart of his girlfriend's parents through the power of music, which lead to many wacky adventures.
For those unfamiliar with the premise of the mod Vs. Sonic.EXE, it is a modification of the original game which instead puts boyfriend up against the titular creepypasta character Sonic.EXE. Along with him, Boyfriend is put up against many other Sonic related creepypastas and characters such as Majin Sonic, an bone-chilling easter egg from Sonic CD, Tails Doll, a creepy robotic replica of tails told to have a murderous history, and many more.
REQUIREMENTS
Because this an unpaid project, I don't except OUTSTANDING levels of quality (but that would be helpful, thanks), so just bring something good to the table. Make sure your mic isn't of such poor quality where there's way to much background noise where it it's no longer possible to use your recordings normally.
OTHER
Don't see a character here? It's probably because we forgot about them, they already have a VA, or we're waiting for Soulless DX to release so we can do their song.
You can add me on Discord here if need be: MarcusBulliesChildren#4855
Have fun auditioning! May the best win!

SONGS TO PERFORM
Black Sun
Godspeed - Maybe, maybe not. we're not sure.
OVERVIEW
When EXE has found a target, he converts into what I'd call his Black Sun form. We'll need a deep voice for this role, as he's a pretty low character, like Sonic.EXE and others. Not much to say on personality as theirs not much to tell.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Deep, dark, and spoopy's the game. That's all.
Just take lines from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3utqISiHOEc
SONGS TO PERFORM
B4ck Sl4sh
OVERVIEW
Sl4sher is an .exe character with not much to be said about them, as they don't really have much of a story at all. They are connected to the Sonic Gems collection and seem quite self-aware of their surroundings. They've learned of all the other Sonic.EXE characters and mocks them for calling themselves gods. He is also intrigued by boyfriend because he senses lots of power within him, which is why he would've challenged him (presumably) in the mod.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
We need a deep voice for this guy, obviously. Nothing to base your voice off of besides his chromatics in B4ck Sl4sh, so just go listen to that and try whatever feels right!
(Smug, Determined) Let's see who really is a god...
(Perplexed, analytical) There seems to be others that seem to resemble this little blue critter...
(Amused) They seem to think they are gods... How hilarious! There is no such thing as god...

Listen, guys. I'm getting way too fucking lazy to write these descriptions. Here's the wiki link: https://shetrappedus.fandom.com/wiki/Luther
"Sarah, I am NOT going to do a rap battle."
https://villainsfanon.fandom.com/wiki/Tails_(Secret_History) Wiki, here ya' go. He's quite sus.
"Sonic and Tails... BEST FRIENDS!"
"YOU'RE NOT SONIC!"
"Of course! ...what are friends for?"
https://sunky.fandom.com/wiki/Silly I don't recommend going for what LooneyDude did, but instead... actually trying, lol.
"Okay, let us do the kiss now!"
https://fridaynightfunking.fandom.com/wiki/FNF:_Parallax He's quite the character.
"You're wasting my time."
I don't know, man??????? Think of something yourself. :(
SONGS TO PERFORM
One of the horizons - Gotta think about which one...
OVERVIEW
I'm lazy, so here.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
He kind of sounds like Knuckles but not really at the same time. Just go with whatever feels best!
(Asking about his friends) Have you seen them?
I've got nothing else... :(
Requirements:
- Has some sort of audio editing program with a good pitch correction plug-in (FL Studio is probably the most popular example)
- Is good at audio manipulation in said software (The bar is low, we aren't very good at it at all)
This is probably the most vital role you'll find in the list here. We need someone to work on taking our audio clips from our VAs, pitch correction them to the song of choosing, and time-correction them to match the vocals of the song. As of now, nobody currently on our team has any program useful for this (I have Ableton but I'm only a beginner at it). For the teaser, we used FL Studio's NewTone plug-in and recorded the audio from that in OBS. This is very inefficient and was very difficult for us to get the hang of, and we're having trouble getting good results. If you have a better plan, that great! If you know what you're doing, you shouldn't have much trouble and we'll be open to trying out your methods!
Say something you think would fit
REQUIREMENTS:
- Must be physically capable of drawing art.
I wanna be like the big shots and have a few pictures within my lyrics videos. Instead of making one person do all of that art, I'd like to have one or two folks work on in-song art while my other two do thumbnail art. This way no one feels like they're doing too much work or is under too much pressure.

SONGS TO PERFORM
Chaos
OVERVIEW
Fleetway Super Sonic, the crazed super form of Sonic from the British Fleetway Comics, is a vicious and sadistic form of his regular countered part within the games. He doesn't think or act like Sonic, instead being his own character hellbent on destruction.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
He's just Sonic but mad. I think you get it!
(Taunting) Let's see how fast you can really go!
(Angry) Eat this!
(Taunting) You're too slow!
SONGS TO PERFORM (?)
Cycles (Remastered) OR Cycles (Encore) -We need to pick one, but we're not sure which.
Hellbent
Fate - Most likely not. I'm not that big a fan.
Slaybells
IMPORTANT
If you don't say BALLS in your audition, you can NOT get the part under any circumstances. DO NOT FORGET IT!
We're really on the fence about what Cycles to use, so if you get the part, keep your personal favorite in mind to help us out!
OVERVIEW
Lord X is another version of Sonic.EXE, made more sadistic and serious (not when he's talking about balls of course). He's quite self aware and generally follows other stuff from Sonic.EXE, such as the basic premise of his fan game. He comes from a place called the Void and is made of odd matter, which he uses to turn himself into the corrupted Hedgehog you see in game and in VS. Sonic.EXE. I'm not as familiar with him as I am with other characters in the roster, so check out his wiki if you have more questions about him!
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Someone with a deep voice is best of course. Make sure you give him too goofy or silly (Unless you're talking about balls). He has a sadistic smile, not one of happiness or joy.
(Crying Laughing) BALLS! HAHAHAHAHAHAH- (Pained, distraught) OW MY FUCKING NUTS, WHAT THE FUCK?!
(Reminiscent) I miss the quiet, before I was birthed. It was peaceful, dark. Then... a burst of conciseness. I was indirectly created, a mistake. The error in the system that is the Void. Nothing, a dark mass floating endlessly. Until... that fateful day.
(Curious, sadistic) Tell me. Why do you continue? You humans continue to intrigue me.
SONGS TO PERFORM
Endless (Encore)
Endeavors
OVERVIEW
Majin Sonic was a hidden easter egg within the sound test menu of Sonic CD. He frightened many families in the United States because of the eerie nature of said easter egg, with the game's creepy boss music playing with a large number of Sonics in the background with the face of Majin (his nickname), a person who worked on the game. While the easter egg may tell you otherwise, Majin's not necessarily such a bad guy. He acts very open and friendly as you go up against him in the mod, but if you lose to him he reveals his ulterior motives, turning boyfriend into another Majin-faced being.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Make sure to always give Majin a chipper and more positive attitude unless specifically told otherwise to match his personality in-game. Giving me a good impression of Timmy Turner's dad works as well, as that's what Majin sounds like in Endless (Encore).
(Exclaiming Joyfully) "The fun never ends!"
(Determined) "You can't end infinity."
(Very Annoyed) "What could you possibly have to say?!"
SONGS TO PERFORM
Manual Blast
Hedge - IF somebody makes a remake. The beginning is screwed so I won't be touching it otherwise.
OVERVIEW
Hog is a bootleg version of Sonic with a dark and mysterious alternate form, Scorched, another being that he shares a body with. There's not much to say as I'm not very familiar with the character, but he's quite positive and down to have a go at boyfriend while not seeming to mean much if any harm.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Scorched will be voiced by somebody else, so all you have to worry about trying to nail the voice of this bootleg character. He's got this highish-pitched voice so he could easily be played by either a guy or a girl, so I won't be picky. Just try to sound like the trailer if you need help.
(Confused) Huh? Sure is spacious around here... (caught off guard after pause) AAAAAAAAH!
Woah! Chill Out!
HOG.
SONGS TO PERFORM
Manual Blast
OVERVIEW
Scorched is the other entity that sits within Hog's body, which comes out during Hog's second song to take on boyfriend himself. I don't know anything else. Just check the wiki...
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
No idea how to describe this fool's voice. Good luck though!
(Myserious) I've been waiting for you to arrive... From now on things will be much, MUCH different... We'll be seeing you soon...
SONGS TO PERFORM
Digitalized
Substantial
OVERVIEW
X-Terion was once a regular Sega employee who loved his job. One day he volunteered to work on Sonic Jam among other titles in Japan, but the stress of the job was too much and led to his untimely death due a seizure. He then found himself trapped within Sonic Jam, where he would reside in agony for a very long time, looking for peace. Anything else you need to know'll probably be on the wiki.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Besides having a some-what deeper voice, I'm not sure what I want out of this voice, so this is another case of you using your best judgement on this one. I really got nothin'! :(
I can't think of anything for this guy... you'll have to think of you're own, sorry. :(
SONGS TO PERFORM
Milk
OVERVIEW
Sunky.mpeg was originally a silly fan game making fun of Sonic.EXE, in which the titular "antagonist" now goes around trying to gather his friends for parties and feed his friends some delicious cereal! Sunky is free-spirited, kind, fun, and loves to boogie! Who wouldn't like the lovable goof?
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
The voice actor doesn't need to be a child, but have a certain sound with child-like innocence (if that makes any sense). Be fun and goofy with it! This is your chance to experiment, since Sunky doesn't speak on the regular. if you need to, just listen to him sing and emulate that.
I occasionally sunk.
[INSERT FUNNY MEME WITH SUNKY VOICE]
SONGS TO PERFORM
Faker
OVERVIEW
Faker is simply an impostor, claiming to be Sonic when he's not. In reality, EXE is just a parasite disguising himself as Sonic (In his faker form) to lure and kill those who are foolish enough to trust him. For hist voice, just do... Sonic... but off?
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
I'd like someone else to voice him so he doesn't sound exactly like our Sonic VA... but yeah, he just kinda sounds like Sonic.
I've got nothing for you again... Sorry. :(
SONGS TO PERFORM
Personnel (Serious) or Personnel - Most likely the serious version because I love what it adds to the song while still keeping some of the dumbass-ery.
OVERVIEW
Instead of explaining him to you, I think it's best if you experience him for yourself here.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
I think this is a very good video to base your voices off of. Jacaris has an amazing impression, so you should try to emulate that if you can. otherwise, just sound overly edgy and shit. I'm sure you get it.
"Pssssssh.... nothin' personnel, kid."
"I call this one: your mother!"
"Fuck you, Kevin! Stop showing everyone my fucking DeviantArt!"
SONGS TO PERFORM
Prey
OVERVIEW
Furnace is just like metal sonic, but with a different voice and a new purpose, being to fry Flickies and Mobians for Starved's unsatiable hunger. He still has his vendetta against Sonic, but is now build stronger and more deadily to serve Eggman's new goals.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
Just try to voice a robot I guess? Go wild with it if you want! It's up to you. I suggest looking up the cutscenes for the song Prey so you can hear what he's supposed to sound like.
I SHALL NOT FAIL YOU, LORD ROBOTNIK.
TARGET SPOTTED.
SONGS TO PERFORM
Prey
Fight Or Flight
OVERVIEW
Starved is an alternate version of Eggman who was corrupted when after the events of Sonic 1, he ate a charred flicky from one of his encounters with sonic, and it was delicious. He soon became addicted to the sensation and wanted more. Check the wiki for the rest.
SINGING / VOICE ACTING TIPS
He's still the same Eggman as before, but more sinister, desperate, and with a different goal in mind this time. Just try to sound spooky. If you'd like, try to give off Eggman vibes with your voice as well, but you don't really have to. No one else likes to.
You don't even know your fate, hedgehog...
Poor little fox...
I love that hedgehog...
Requirements:
- Is able to draw often. :)
We have an artist on our team, but I'd like another one to help him out / add thumbnail variation. That's all. this one's quick.
