Scratching

February 13, 2010

When I used to DJ in the mid ’90s, I used to love scratching. Obviously, the form’s evolved far from the basic cuts in the ’80s, and I could never keep up with the turntablistic DMC and ITF champs, particularly when it came to beat juggling (that’s using two copies of the same records to create different beats).

Nevertheless, I’ve kept my QFO because I like the sound of scratching and thought I’d have a little jam after picking up Volume Two of the B-Music Weekend Breaks on vinyl.
