How to do the Star Wars Scratch?
I’m trying to re-do the Star-Wars scratch.
He uses the Instrumental version of Buck 65’s Centaur.
The first part is just the beat, but I don’t know how he pulls of the 2nd part. Having only one deck at hand certainly makes it harder.
I have never seen that but it makes me wanna learn how to scratch just to do that
It’s basically a Beat Juggle.
DJane Freshfluke nailed it down.
I think I will make a post about it soon.
This was done at Scribble Jam in Cincinnati. I was about 20 feet to the right of the camera for this one.
As far as doing it, it’s really just a matter of knowing your cues on the record, and a little bit of forward spin at the right time.
Dude, you must be really old 
I could barely walk in 1991.
It can be done by just using cue-points on a single deck.
However I like the manual execution more using two decks. It just sounds too clean with cue-points.
i thought you meant this;
That my friend is beyond awesome 
yeah, but a touch old now. he’s got a few like that. the war of the worlds one is good to
Time to buy him a wookie-costume heh?
Not that old, but i’m pushing 30.
This wasn’t 1991. Scribble Jam didn’t even start 'till 1996. I’m pretty sure this was in 2001.
I could buy beer legally in 1991.
Recent photo?
I wish I had that much hair. 
hehe,
I turned 40 on Friday, saw the original opening of Star Wars and most people who don’t know me think i’m in my late 20s–though 2 years in Iraq have accelerated my aging.
He’s using 2, maybe 3 notes of the instrumental. The first 3 notes are the same, then the 4th lower note is obviously coincidently the next note on the instrumental. The 5th higher note sounds like he’s pulling the record back at a faster speed to achieve the desired pitch, or he is catching the end of another note in the instrumental. There is a split second delay on the video so its hard to tell exactly what he is doing. At the end of the day there is only 3 notes in total on that bit of the imperial march so do what you gotta do to achieve them, maybe dont focus on copying that dude like for like so much.
It doesn’t hurt that he produced that track.
If you watch the guy who I’m guessing he’s competing against on the right you can see his head stop moving to the beat just a hair right before the crowd reacts. I think that’s the point where he realized he just got pwnd.
“You want a popsicle?”
Back on topic: Those vids are making me want hijack my friend’s tech 12’s lol.
