For this Taum MYO contest goin' on for the anniversary~
My entry be a Taum inspired by a vintage RCA Victor radio, heheh. Best of all, he doesn't need to be plugged in to play some jams.
Some secret features included :D

ADDED INFO: 10/3
It is said that Vintage was built by a mastermind inventor, that he came to life when one's soul was enclosed inside his mechanical, wooden frame. While this may be nothing less than a rumor, or a larger than life truth, no one quite knows for sure. Not even the radio Taum himself, Vintage, knows how his life started.

But he does remember his purpose: to entertain. Since he sparked to life, his goal was so see that his abilities made others smile, laugh, and dance in the whirl of a good time that left their worries and stresses ebb away with each tap of their foot.

Charisma rings from his voice, crackling and smooth, deep and enchanting, while his needle dial skips and stops over a favorite station. Old music of simpler times whines out of crackled speakers, loud and crisp, flowing in the dim lighting of a pleasant evening. Smooth voices that sing of love and happiness, sorrow and loss, hanging in the otherwise still night air. Floating down a street, pouring from opened windows and cracked doors.

Vintage stands in the center - encouraging, entertaining - helping others to dance, swing, and all at once, united in voice, to sing along. The moments don't seem to last a mere few hours, but forever, stuck and lost in a spinning world of happiness. A way that creates romance without the need, a forgetfulness of the world just outside.

Though, when the night ends and his audience is left to find their way home in the all too silent night, as he wisps them a farewell in his own lowly smooth, crackled melodic voice that follows them into their dreams that replay the night over in more dramatic lighting.

Without realizing, centuries go by and Vintage never leaves the realm he was created in, the realm that lives on with him. Times changed, as did the world, but his audience still finds time to enjoy the moments of an uplifting atmosphere Vintage can weave for them with one simply enchanted song, familiar crackled sound drifting through evening air, like it always had.
