I am in the same boat…

My cutting is there…but I need to find samples and tracks that go together nicely to build a lil routine.

nice dude. I have a pair of TT and have never really scratched. been meaning to give it a go, and I think I will over the next few months. your vid looks/sounds pretty good to me, btw.

Thanks a lot! It’s pretty n00b as far as scratching goes…some of those dudes are unreal :S

But yeah…some controlled elements would be cool - gonna work on that :slight_smile:

Nice!

I need to practice with my right hand rubbing.

Can only do it with my left at the moment and tap\crab the fader with my right.

jprime - stay in touch with me. I will post videos of myself scratching, and after you hear them if your interested i’ll make you a tutorial on things i did to practice.

Facebook = dwight saunders in mammoth lakes .. just friend me on there and then remind me once or twice.

in the mean time… Listen to The Beat Junkies and Invisible Scratch Pikilz… also you may want to download Wave Twisters you can find it on TPB.org one of the coolest videos of all time in my opinion.

also this video made me fall in love with scratching… maybe you’ll like it.

Also here is a vid of the beat junkies performing live
