SCP Foundation

Hello. I'd like to introduce my first SCP for your review and critique. It's a collection of vinyl records, playing covers of classic songs by the same artist and record company. Each song has it's own unique cognitohazard effect, relating to the title and lyrics of the song.

I have a few story ideas related to these items. Any suggestions for improvements? How could this fit into the general lore of the Foundation? What are the more interesting ramifications of the Foundation possessing this SCP that I haven't foreseen?

Comments and critiques appreciated. Thanks,

Here we go, this is a quick read since I'm cleaning out the backlogged unanswered forum posts. Here are my thoughts:

Okay, so uh… I took at this, and kind of immediately balked at the sheer amount of text in the containment procedures for a Safe class. Granted, "Safe" doesn't necessarily mean short containment procedures, but they shouldn't be particularly complicated either. I think the main issue you have is excess of text, for example:

Audio or video recordings of SCP-####-A events must be made on approved devices maintained per standards found in SCP-####-I. Audio or video recordings of SCP-####-A not made from a device in SCP-####-I are to be treated as a Class B cognitohazard, and must be destroyed as soon as possible. No digital recordings of SCP-####-A are to be made, whether they are copied directly, or as a copy from a device sanctioned within list SCP-####-I. If a digital recording of an SCP-####-A event is found, the recording is to be erased, written over a minimum of 1,024 times, and the hardware containing the recording is to be destroyed per digital protocol IT-739

This can be trimmed down to:

Also, having the 'Approved recording devices for transcription of SCP-####-A events" be listed as an apparent sub-designation (I thought it was an extension of the anomaly, not a separate protocol, and as such was quite confused) in an easy-to-miss collapsible title seems unnecessary. Why not just give it a procedure or protocol name?

Overall… it's a little bland to me, sorry. It comes off as a more-wordy and less narrative-coherent SCP-3636 (World's Greatest Jukebox), and as such I can't help but draw comparisons and like the existing work more.

I see you have a thread for the concept in the Ideas and Brainstorming forum, but it doesn't look like you got feedback from an experienced author. It also doesn't seem like anyone actually told you "what you have is solid, you're ready to start drafting".

Maybe try another round of conceptualization? "Song causes anomaly" is a pretty commonly-attempted trope here.
