anyone got any ideas on a "good" way to skratch to and of tha 130+ bpm stuff...I'm pretty sure I hear skratching in some hhc stuff like vinylgroover...but then again I could be wrong cause it might be some synths or something that sounds like skratchin...anyways...got any ideas at all on how to go about skratching to trance/hhc/etc...like I said b4...I want to become a really versatile DJ and sorry for all tha different types of questions but if someone has some input on this subject...it would help me greatly...peace

A lot of the scratching you hear in songs is real scratching, it's just sampled and later added to the song as a sample.
I could go through the different kinds of scratching and explain them to you, but it really helps to have someone show you so you understand exactly what somone is talking about. So I suggest if you have $20 lying around to order a scratching video. I just looked at PSSL.com and they have lots of videos. Umm.. Turntable Wizardry volume #1 looks ok for what you want (I think). Try looking around and seeing if you like any of their videos. Or best of all find somone in your town to show you how to do it ^_^

Listen to any DJ Sy set and you and your jaw will drop with his scratching skills over happyhardcore.
I agree, grab a few scratch records and your away. |

I agree, Sy is has a dead-on technical scratching skill. Brisk is good too, and I've also heard hixxy do some scratching. I do scratching almost always in my sets. If i had a third table I think I would do it much more often. (but just dont overdo scratching!)

Listen to Bonkers 1 + 2 and you guys will see how much potential Hixxy has!
THose cds are from a long time back probs round 92' so imagine wat Hixxy is capable of now!

I would agree Sy is truely a master at scratching, but then so is Brisk...
Cant really name any other scratchers of their caliber... well not of Sy's, Hixxy is good none the less....
Scratching is amazing, I do it as often as I can and its hugely enjoyable to do along to a tune for 30seconds or whatever
just love it:)

DNA is coming across as a good scratcher. He's actually pretty damned hot when it comes to it!

yeah..morgz' scratching is pretty good...he's no sy, but good nonetheless. the only time i have a problem with it is when theres scratching over the vocals.

Drags the record back? Do you mean when he rewinds a tune? In which case, yeah it does happen too often sometimes, but sounding shite? Naah, sounds well good!
