[DominatorDeeStarski]

[GlueEarPunk]

[Knowledg3X]

fuck the scratch, wuts the name of that beat ??????

[BouOscar]

how is he doing that final scratch it's crazy what's the name of it

[djdnell]

@BouOscar I think its calleda twiddle scratch. Its like a crab scratch but only with two fingers.

[NebKheru7]

I have bad nerves in my left hand. It is very hard to scratch with my left hand. Deck 2 on my right is 'deck 1' for me and vice versa.

[BouOscar]

What is that scratch at 2:17? please

[Kingaglv]

[Knowledg3X]

[chicostick90]

[hhanonymous]

@CJ00014

Original Vestax PMC-06 Pro

[TheEmceehero]

[DuDe1040]

i am 140k view guy..:D i fell special now

[FunnyErWhat]

anyone know a good vinyl site? im trying to start out but all i can find are actual songs and tracks, i cant find bass and stff like tht

help plz?

[DruSk33t]

oh man.. you make this look so easy. Got any tips on doing the trasnform? I have cutting down pretty well, but when it comes to doing the trasnform I cant seem to get my thumb to spring it back the way you do. Im more or less just grabbing the fader any trying to move it back and forth really quick. Any tips?

[TheSinc]

@DruSk33t Try holding your thumb against the fader so it's closed, then instead of literally moving the fader on and off, hit the opposite side of the fader with one of your other fingers to open the fader for a split second and your thumb springs the fader back to the closed position. Basically like a stab but you just do it faster. Hope that helps!

[Movezzzzzz]

@DruSk33t

just keep your thumb loose tap your finger to whatever rhythm you want.

if youre using your wrist alot maybe look into learning one click flares, theyre a bitch to start but pretty easy and sound really good :)

[Knowledg3X]

what the hell song is this???

[Devestato72]

Can you get super seal on mp3 format? Anyone!

[ivangonzale2016]

[TheRickest1]

fuckin good man thanx bro.

[curransb]

whats the best record to use to get the best noise from your scratchin? if that makes sense to anyone im not sure ...?

[Kiedis95]

Try Q Bert's Super Seal. Its got the classics. "ahhh," "fresh," and other goodies too,

[djtrickdog01]

@Kiedis95 super duck breaks

[TheWeedBrothers]

1:45 Stones Throw Records :)

[banging008]

This is great any more from Rob

[shabbyrockers]

erm , the scratching , goes this with ether kind of music on the scratch vinyl?

[grimslider75]

anyone know where i can get this beat, the fists of the white lotus?

[ookdundundundun]

Yo what is that noise called that hes scratching on... i hear a lot of djs using it and i want it =)

thx

[jubjub11]

I got it on Hee-Haw Breaks but you can find it on almost any battle record.

[douqa]

Yeah he's right man.I dont think i own a scratch vinyl that doesn't have that sample on it. Most have it more than once probs cos it is used alot.

[ookdundundundun]

where can i download it on my comp tho..

[djbenno2008]

i got it on scratchaholics volume 2 =]

[FunkyRob]

It's on any "battle" record. Look up anything on dirt style records. If my memory is correct, it's not on the one called battle breaks. My fav is the Deluxe Shampoo.

Few know this, but original source is a song by Fab Five Freddy called Change The Beat. Ahhhhhh, This Stuff is Really Fresh!

[ookdundundundun]

thx

[Skrepis]

Rob Swift kicks ass. One of the illest and you better believe that.

[koreanbounca]

Wait..Is this sarcasm? You're saying you can beat ROB SWIFT? A former member of the X-men?

[sweepee213]

you must be kiddin,i'm the best not you moron..

[Knowledg3X]

wut beat is this?

[delatroy]

Its from Five Fingers of Death Vol 1 I believe.

[JoshJ1992]

i know im lookin for a tutorial, u got a link for 1?

[2121dark2121]

love that scratch,got some nice flava to it!!!

[bgcentrs]

man this is ill!!!!!!!!

[thizzygillespie]

yo y'all i've been fuckin with turntables for a minute now, and ready to upgrade to a not shitty mixer, andy recommendations? i'm talking simple, turntablism shit, not like 80 channels and features, but just high qualityy

[xiro0999]

Look into the Vestax PMC line. The 05 and 06 are basically the standard for turntablists.

[thizzygillespie]

thanx! also what up with needles/cartridges, i need to finally upgrade past my starting ones. which ones are good (not those oforton bullshit ones)

[xiro0999]

I have Shure M44-7s, They're pretty much skip proof (and I'm pretty heavy-handed).

[thizzygillespie]

thanks a bunch

[richpickins]

if you can scratch already u kind of pick up some tips as he goes thru the scratch tecniques...watch what the hands do...

[c0mplexphoneticistz]

Your welcome

[BobMarley211]

so nice

[c0mplexphoneticistz]

@ geeky1994

Its vestax 06, nicknamed 'mixstick'

[corporalcandour]

The scratch sample, I agree, is a tad trite from overuse...but still man this is awesome, I can't even get the thumb action on the crossfade down lmao

[drunkship12]

I hate that sample he's scratching with!!! sooooo overused!!

He's badass though

[robnoyce]

does anyone know what that famous scratch sample is from, I fancy getting hold of that :)

[MPrest1]

its ahhhh , can be found on many battle records, easy to pick up.

[kaadauwgg]

[scaracciolo]

[manzies12]

Break beat samples. (Scratchy seal i recommend that record).

[tsorQ]

[Jonnyf5]

[gojustyle]

fuk I love his scratches. dude is simply erm words cant describe. He maintains musicality where as most guys might be doing insane cuts but its not music!!! Rob is the Man! He has a very unique sound that no-one else matches...

Rob Swift & D-Styles are the men!

[beew87]

Rob got a cool style

[bakinblack]

Ive been xecutioner mad for yewars &got decks &a mixer 2 years ago or so, Ive never used them, expensive dust collectors, Im lead guitarist in my band so Ive been into that but recently Ive dusted the decks down& have been trying it again. Ive got little patience, Im working on flares, 1 click for now getting them going&fast until I get to double time speed.Ive got this xecutioner dvd this was taken from and want to know what the hell hes doing at 0:47 it sounds kool az

[GottaHaveSouL123]

love rob's style, the best kind of skratchin - simple, easy and on time. funky

[djbjam]

that's an awesome mixer,it's all you need

[DJNoizeUK]

NICE NICE NICE NICE AND CLEAN

[ticktawsawthelaw]

that sure was a great tutorial

[AKCrowley]

Is that just a twiddle that we keep hearing?

that fast one..

[center311]

its the crab

[AKCrowley]

Around 1.00 to 1.06 its the crab but rest is twiddle among others. thanks for the input though.

[DjStinkles]

no theyre all crabs

1:00 to 1:06 are some kind of flares

[AKCrowley]

oh thanks. answer I was looking for

[eakinlade]

[willberridge]

[DjStinkles]

fingers of death

[fanoflinkinpark01]

Dj Hahn sucks ass.
