All Art Is Quite Useless


When I'm not writing stories, I'm writing essays. My keyboard sees fairly frequent use. University student, high functioning Rainbow Dash enthusiast, and satirical activist.

Vinyl Scratch knows a lot about electronic music. She knows how it works, she knows its sub-genres, she knows how to create it, and she's got a deft ear when it comes to analysing it.

Other ponies? They're typically not so clued up, and that annoys her.

This reminded me of a song I have on my playlist called NOT A REAL THING made by FAR TOO LOUD

I find it funny how classical and EDM are a thing in Equestria, but none of the genres in between exist.

We saw Rarity shred it one time.

8478080 A metal song on an accoustic guitar? Oh, I've seen that episode. Can ponies even play woodwind instruments?

I understand Vinyl's trouble in describing electronic genres. It's a fucking nightmare.

You better make a fucking sequel you beautiful person. And if you don't... So help me, I will continue to love you for this story and give you a follow anyway because this is great.

Without audio aid, hell yeah. 'What's the difference between jungle and hardcore?' Hold on let me just get my bloody charts out, a blackboard too maybe.

Sequel for this one is going to depend on popular demand, honestly. I've been writing a lot lately, but nothing's been getting that storm of upvotes. Maybe I'm just posting at a bad time.

That being said, even if I don't write a direct sequel to this in future, I can guarantee that DashScratch will be a thing from me one day!

Thanks very much for your kind words though, mate!

What this person said.

I loved this story so much. From the mutual admiration, to the conflict & resolution. Good feelings all around :twilightsmile:

It...it's over? Why is it over? NOOO! I wanted more story!

That spiel about electronic music was pretty cool.

While I am by no means fluent in the genres and sub-genres, Dashie was indeed cringe inducing.

Also, beware the ire of the classically trained musician. THEY WILL SCHOOL YOU BIG TIME!!! Oh lord, will they ever...

Second story by you I've read this night. Good stuff. Most enjoyable.

An older fic from one of my pet Ships. RainbowScratch is one of those dynamics that seems weird at first but has a bit more in common than you'd expect.
