Octavia's performance at the wedding of Princess Cadence was cancelled, and her ensemble was replaced by a mysterious DJ! When she goes to investigate, she discovers a world of music she never imagined from the turntables of Vinyl Scratch. She takes a chance and follows the DJ back to her home in Ponyville, and begins a journey full of music, love, laughs, some tears (maybe?), and... an evil plot!? What?
Let's read along, shall we? But brace yourself... it's gonna take a while.
Each chapter comes with a one-panel comic in the author's notes, drawn by yours truly!
Chapters (32)
Interesting...
A nice take on the duo. Looking forward to reading more on the two.
I must say this for the record... I only just read the synopsis and I already like it...
While the ScratchTavia pairing has been done over and over again, this is the first time I see Octavia admiring Vinyl´s musical style, instead of butting their heads about classic vs techno.
Enjoyable so far!

Uh-oh! That's pretty ambiguous!
Must
not 
panic! 
3587681
Thanks! Sorry there's not much going on in the first 3 chapters!
3587841
That'll do Scootaloo. That'll do.
3588003
Good observation! It's actually going to be the focal point of their relationship.
3588756
Good. Good. I have you right where I want you. >:3
I hate pointing things out, it makes me feel mean...
But...maybe too many "off"s in this sentence?
Edit: Forgot to say - LOVE IT!
3589454
Thanks for pointing that out! I am my own editor and completely guilty of skimming while I proofread (not a great combo!)
Glad you're enjoying it!
3589701 It's no problem
.
Can't wait for more
This is cute
The odd couple returns! Love it!
LunaTavi. Pls.
I kinda lost who's talking at this point. o.o
Other then that, the bracketed sentences make the story a little personal, and it's nice xD A little cliche with the pushing and Tavi meeting Vinyl then, but then the little twist at the end just made me rofl. GJ
Thumbs + Fav.
LOL...
Do you think 'berry-coloured' would be as funny?
Well this certainly was an interesting read, The running word gags amuse me to some extent.. but "Too bad you only get to read about it" is a little over used in this. I'll keep reading and the like because I do enjoy it so far, and octyscratchy is always fun to read.
3594817
*cough*
Wait for it...
3593216
Glad you like it so far!
3594849
Eh, I admit it's a little hard to keep track of, but it's just alternating between two characters. I didn't want the pace to be thrown off by 'he said, she said.'
I wasn't sure how the (narrator talks to the audience thing) was going to go over. I enjoy writing like that, and always have. And there IS sorta a reason I'm doing it too. It's so meta.
Can't really stop it now though! I'm too far gone! 
3593203
Gah! That's almost as ambiguous as your first comment! Cute as in "adorable character and story" or as in "how cute, he thinks he can write! how droll!"
I MUST KNOW!!
(I'm kidding with you.)
3593360
Thanks! Next chapter features a certain hat-chewing farm pony. :3
3594896
The tiny English teacher in my head told me that saying 'berry' two times in that close of a proximity would earn me detention.
3595879
Yeah, I'm about to take that gag out back and put him down.
3596413 adorable character interactions. Interesting story thus fr, and very fun to watch Octy stumble over herself.
The narrators voice is fun. And why yes, I am doing this on purpose now. Why'd ya'll ask?"
I swear to Luna if the author uses "Too bad you only get to read about it" one more time, I will Falcon Punch them in the Adam's Apple!
)
(And you get a cookie if you get THAT reference
3598024
Oh... well
I'll just say there might be a reason why I set the story in in Ponyville...
3597837
XD
3598384
All I know from that is Falcon Punch! I guess no cookies for me.
3598462
3598462 I wish to have your children for that reference
I thought her glasses where purple, and they where always red/some form of red-ish color.
-smirks- Hypnotic
3605080
*Points down to Clever Girl*
3605141
Yeah I got a lot of *cough* free time at work.
3604911
??? Her glasses have always been purple. Fans thought her eyes were red until they revealed them to be purpleish in the show.
3605186 I fail to see your point sir..
3605214
Thought you were being clever. You did smirk after all.
3605232 -nods happily- Oh, yes, clever and a bit slow apparently.
first i was like
but then i was all like 
3605437
Eh, I wish I could say my story has nothing but new material planned, but I admit I'm quite fond of certain clichés. But I'll try to make them as fresh and interesting as possible if they happen to crop up. (I couldn't resist the 'waking up to someone you didn't expect' after all :3 )
In terms of conflict... I have some minor ones thrown in throughout the whole ordeal and a major one at the end (that I've actually foreshadowed a teeny-tiny bit. ...if you look closely...
) But I'll see what I can do to set things in motion a little earlier. I'm no literary master after all, this is the first thing I've written that wasn't just a short story.
3606170
Mr. PonyMan, I have a flowchart of my story right here on this sheet of paper. We've covered the top left corner so far.
ohmahgawd so much to come.
Hope it doesn't become stale after too long!
I also like how Vinyl's eyes are portrayed as red instead of purple or magenta. They're more unique that way and give a lot of character to Vinyl.
Also, I love the little pictures you incorporate at the end of each chapter! PEW! PEW! PEW!
As Nowacking's Vinyl Scratch would say: "ALRIGHT! LASER SHOW!"
3609596
Dude, I literally just got that exact comment about the laser show on my DeviantArt for that picture.
Keep up the awesome work love it love it love it mate!
Oh boy this is fun!
I am ready for the next chapter and amazed that I missed this yesterday. What was I thinking to scroll past it!!
3621762
You were thinking you should probably avoid me, because I look dangerous.
...and you were right!!!
Next chapter should be up tonight. Unless I feel like it needs to be double checked 50 more times.
3619927
Thanks! I'll do my best!
But that might not be good enough....
Then again it could be plenty!
3620741
Oh no you don't! No one has fun on my watch!
No wait, I got that mixed up. No one makes fun of my watch. Totally different subject. Oops!
Explosive..
3623402
Oh, you and your one word reviews!
I can tell from the way you stopped mid sentence from saying how we only got to read about it that you got my message
3623510 I promise a full once the story is done.
That was a nice explosion, too bad I only got to read about it.
3623758
That I did.
To be honest I was only going do it like twice, but the third time just made it so annoying I couldn't resist. I knew it needed to be destroyed after that. I swear!
3624133
Just wanted to mention that records don't actually shatter. They are made of PVC or polyvinyl chloride, it's the same stuff they use for sprinkler piping and plastic fencing.
Well, I'm riveted!
I can say I'm very much looking forward to what's to come and eager to read of how this tale will be solved... or not.
Thank you for letting us know what the songs you're referring to are: it's much appreciated.
Continue your excellent work! It's more than deserving of my like and fave.
AIP§
3624754
Well, I didn't say shatter, what I meant was it broke into a couple pieces. ...which I would assume would happen if a horse stepped on it... r-right?
Now I'm starting to question it!
3624229 Ah it's all in good fun. Did you get the reference?
Oh dear...
3625840
No I didn't!
3626055
How could I let this happen!?
