SCP-043, inside its sleeve.

Background

SCP-043 is a vinyl copy of "The White Album" by the Beatles that has no grooves. Despite this, the record will play from start to finish regardless of the starting position of the needle.

After the twenty-ninth track is reached, instead of playing "Revoultion 9", this disc stops spinning. Faint breathing can be heard, with the entity occasionally speaking with a male voice, responding to questions about the music industry, musical theory, and obscure trivia about many bands and artists. However, they refuse to answer any questions regarding The Beatles or their own personal details.
