The Vinyl Scratch Tapes - The Master Recording (CLOSED)
Project Overview
After the invention of radio, DJ-P0n3 (aka Vinyl Scratch) holds the first Equestrian talk show with her co-host Octavia. Octavia quickly finds out her superior is very eccentric, leading their broadcast to be constantly derailed, yet somehow remain popular. These episodes were recorded for historical significance and transcribed. These are the Vinyl Scratch Tapes.

The Vinyl Scratch tapes is a MLP:FIM fanfiction created by Corey W. [http://www.fimfiction.net/story/24/the-vinyl-scratch-tapes] which was adapted into a youtube radio play series by Midnight Magic Productions [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbpdFK200Y57ThWACjsVBIqqKaEs-9Umi]. However while their run was great, they left it off short two years ago in the middle of season two.
The show inspired me to create everything I have in the last four years and as such I want to try my hand at the show that started it all for me! So anyways! Audition below!

Classy, refined and all around divine This is the Cello playing straightmare of the two. We are looking for something close to Wolfeey but really just a british accent or anything close to the official character in the show.

Octavia: “Lovely” assistant?
DJ-P0n3: It’s a compliment. Something wrong with that?
Octavia: Well, no, it’s just a little ... odd.
DJ-P0n3: Okay, so you don’t want me to call you lovely. I can deal with that.
Octavia: Wait, I didn’t--
DJ-P0n3: My homely, train-wreck of an co-host will be here to give you all perspective on jazz and classical music, while I comment on music ponies actually listen to.
Octavia: Lots of ponies love classical music!
[Only read the lines Marked Octavia]
Octavia: [Whispering.] Now?
DJ-P0n3: [Whisper] Yes, dummy.
Octavia: Um, yes. Well. Miss Vinyl, you are …
DJ-P0n3: Yeah?
Octavia: A ... horrible individual to know. Yes! And you should, um, learn some manners and act like a productive member of society! You... rascal.
[Long pause.]
Octavia: [Whisper.] Did, did I do it wrong?
[Only read the lines marked Vinyl Scratch]
Vinyl Scratch: Honestly? [Chuckle.] Then we’d be airing episode two in from space.
Octavia: How can you be this reckless?
Vinyl Scratch: Because that’s what I’m here for, my lovely assistant!
Octavia: I told you not--
Vinyl Scratch: [Yelling.] That is the spirit of radio! There’s no limits!
Octavia: Why are you standing up again?! Don’t get so--
Vinyl Scratch: We’re here for truth, justice, and the power of rock and roll! It is our way! It is the only way! Even if we stop broadcasting, our signal will just travel across the universe forever! Stars fade away, comets burn out, black holes devour suns, but even out there in the black, ROCK will always live on! That means music will last longer than the heavens themselves! That is radio! That is K-COLT! And THAT. IS. THE VINYL SCRATCH!
Octavia: ...you’re insane.
****Note: I am not looking for a NoWacking Vinyl Scratch. I am looking for something a lot closer to HannahK's old Vinyl scratch although I would love to see a take with you trying it and a take without you trying it. Overall have fun with the Vinyl voice and make it your own.
Keep in mind this Vinyl Scratch is NOT going on and on about Wubs or the power of dubstep but is more into and obssessed with Rock N' Roll. This is to be noted as the two mindsets are completely differnet.
Goooooood morning, Equestria! The sun is up and so are you! You’re listening to K-COLT and it’s time for THE VINYL SCRATCH.

Princess of the sun, same voice from the show.
Celestia: No, the pleasure is all mine. I am enjoying the show so far.
Celestia: Hm. Well, my sister and I created Equestria. So there’s that. I’ve been princess ever since then. I like to think I do a pretty good job. I sincerely want to make every citizen in Equestria happy.
Celestia: That ... my sister was very proud of her nights. They were beautiful. On a clear one, you could see every star that ever was. She wanted everypony in Equestria to enjoy it. B- but she became jealous and refused to raise the sun. I tried to reason with her. I truly did. But she wouldn’t listen. Her jealousy and bitterness transformed her into Nightmare Moon. Everypony was so frightened, they didn’t know what was happening. I had to do something. I had no choice but to--
In the year 1001 of the Celestian calendar, Equestrian scientists developed advanced magic making it possible to broadcast music over long distances. This innovation was called “radio,” and quickly became a sensation throughout Equestria.
For a period of time, only one frequency playing classical music was available. This changed when a popular young disk jockey with the stage name DJ-P0n3 (born Vinyl Scratch) formally proposed the creation of an independent radio station called K-COLT. It was approved, with DJ-P0n3 as the host.
In addition to playing rock-and-roll and other popular music, DJ-P0n3 also hosted the first Equestrian talk show known as “The Vinyl Scratch.” These broadcasts were recorded for historical significance.
What follows is a transcript of the first morning broadcast of the Vinyl Scratch
That was the end of the first historic broadcast of “the Vinyl Scratch,” but it was not the last. Despite Octavia’s fears, the show was not canceled and, in fact, became phenomenally popular.
Despite Vinyl Scratch’s dismissive attitude towards her own advertisements, it managed to attract more sponsors and never had any shortage of funding. To this day, Octavia is not clear if Vinyl Scratch had planned this or if it was simply a side effect of her own psychosis.
Princess Celestia chose not to end the show, even though it was within her full authority. She would later speak fondly of the interview, in spite of its inflammatory nature. She admitted that, after leaving the studio, she visited her sister and apologized. She would not go into further detail about the nature of their conversation, other than saying they spoke at great length.
It may also be of interest that the following night was the longest one in recorded history. It was crisp, clear, and showed off the wonders of the universe. Meteors showered across the sky and galaxies seemed to dance in the distance. Many ponies still speak fondly of that night, where the sun stood still just long enough for everypony to enjoy the beautiful starry sky.
