$\begingroup$ Cassette blocked is a great point. It continues with O forever. $\endgroup$– PremCommented Apr 2, 2015 at 7:11

1$\begingroup$ I fear your gramophone record has a scratch on the recitation of the alphabet. How distressing! $\endgroup$– JoffanCommented Apr 3, 2015 at 0:33

$\begingroup$ I will be adding the exact expected answer to all my puzzles, so that the clues are explained, but if somebody else has got the correct answer, then that will be the "Accepted Answer". $\endgroup$– PremCommented May 9, 2015 at 16:51

I would say the answer is
Staccato
Because it sounds like
'Stuck at O'

It may be
A music-disc that went in loop. It was spelling the alphabet, when suddenly something went wrong!
Otherwise it may be
A loop preceded by a scale. The scale is made with the notes from A to N (A to G notes are the standard ones, H to N may be the next octave).

$\begingroup$ First attempt is on the right track, but there is a specific musical term, because it went wrong at the specific letter. Also look at the clue given in the question. Second attempt is not on track. $\endgroup$– PremCommented Apr 2, 2015 at 7:35

$\begingroup$ So this is a rebus? $\endgroup$– user88Commented Apr 2, 2015 at 8:16

So "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO........." looks like it is
stuck at the letter O.
Now, the clue says that it is better to write that as "A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O O O O O O O O O O O O . . . . . . . . ." which is
marked by or composed of disconnected parts or sounds.
Hence the musical term, as per Definition, is :
Staccato
