MLP Dubbing in Swedish (Swedish Voices Needed)
Project Overview
(I'm writing in English for accessibility - everyone can audition)
Hello everyone :) Swedes and non-Swedes out there!
I'm planning on dubbing some of the MLP songs to Swedish for fun and I need singers. [Note: I know MLP already has a dubbed Swedish version, but I'm unsatisfied with both the choice of voices, as well as the overall script and translations of the songs. Perhaps I'm not the only one.]
I have rewritten the lyrics for a couple of the songs already. Now, all that's left is the voices!
As I'm going to upload the finished songs on YouTube, you will get credited in the videos' description, as well as possibly in the videos themselves, with preferred name.
Requirements:
You don't have to have the best mic, but I'd like clear vocals with as little background noise as possible.
Be sure to have an audio recording program so you can record your audio (using f. ex. "Audacity").
Also, I need to be able to contact you via email.
There is no planned deadline at the moment.

Twilight Sparkle is the central main character of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. She is a female unicorn pony who transforms into an Alicorn and becomes a princess in Magical Mystery Cure. She is also the daughter of Twilight Velvet and Night Light, the younger sister of Shining Armor, sister-in-law to Princess Cadance, and paternal aunt to Flurry Heart.
I want her to sound as close as possible to her English voice in the show.

Rainbow Dash is a female Pegasus pony and one of the main characters in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. She maintains the weather and clears the skies in Ponyville. As a huge fan of the Wonderbolts, she becomes a reservist member of the elite flying group in Testing Testing 1, 2, 3 and a full member in Newbie Dash. In Sonic Rainboom, Rarity and Princess Celestia both declare that she is the best flier in all of Equestria. Rainbow Dash has a pet tortoise named Tank, whom she chooses out of Fluttershy's offered animals in the episode May the Best Pet Win! She represents the element of loyalty.
The main characteristics of her voice is: high in pitch, a little raspy (but nothing too much), and voice-cracks (though this may not show as much in her singing voice).

Rarity is a female unicorn pony and one of the main characters of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. She is Sweetie Belle's older sister and the subject of Spike's long-term crush. Rarity works as both a fashion designer and as a seamstress at her own shop in Ponyville, the Carousel Boutique. She has a white Persian cat named Opalescence. She represents the element of generosity.
Try to mimic close to the English voice. She kind of originally has a British accent, and sounds very sophisticated.

She is an energetic and sociable baker at Sugarcube Corner, where she lives on the second floor with her toothless pet alligator Gummy, and she represents the element of laughter.

Applejack is a female Earth pony and one of the main characters of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. She lives and works at Sweet Apple Acres with her grandmother Granny Smith, her older brother Big McIntosh, her younger sister Apple Bloom, and her dog Winona. She represents the element of honesty.
In the English version, Applejack has kind of a Texas accent which makes her stand out in a positive way. In this version I want her to have close to a Gotlandish accent (Gotländsk dialekt). Now, you don't have to be from Gotland to audition, but you should be able to fake the accent to an enough convincing extent. (Did you know the English voice actor who voices Applejack is actually Canadian? She also fakes her accent.)

Lyra is a mint-green background pony with a lyre for a cutie mark. She is often seen with Bon Bon and is well-known for sitting like a human on a bench in the episode Dragonshy which has inspired multiple memes and character portrayals. It hasn't escaped many fans' notice that she shows up everywhere Twilight Sparkle goes, even Cloudsdale, though not redesigned as a Pegasus.
There aren't really any guidelines here for how her voice should sound like. Feel free to make your own interpretation!
