Official DJ Angelo website and merchandise store: http://www.djangelo.co.uk

The first in a series of online Turntable Tutorials aimed at DJs who are interested in Turntablism and want to develop new technical and performance skills on the decks.

In this first tutorial, I advise beginners on how to get started in a step-by-step introduction to Turntablism. Tutorials to follow will cover topics including scratch techniques, beat juggling, and DJ equipment.

The "Ahhhh" Scratch sample has to be the most popular one out there. Agree?

[eddsworldizawsom22]

hi....im absolutly broke... im 15 and i have no clue how to even get the stuff

[hummurabi2010]

@eddsworldizawsom22 Search craigslist for Technics. Any technics 1200 or 1210 are amazing. Go with a rane TTM57SL or a rane mixer since they are in cahoots w/serato (to keep you from buying a million expensive records.)

@njrob87 it's also the one I hate the most. tired of the sound :/ man, I'm a turntablist nut but that sample really gets to me :L

[freedompeaceandtruth]

o my tahts a old trick about plastic on mats, Ive done it back in da days from plastick bags from tesco or some

[Myosh03]

@eddsworldizawsom22 if u dont know how to get that its not your thing mate ;) Ive started of 150£ for 2x decks and mixer...

[willsmidlein]

@eddsworldizawsom22 Try Craigslist. Cheap tables go for like $50.

[gamegod5678]

@eddsworldizawsom22 Right there with you bro. Personally, I've looked into it... And there's no way out of it.

Step one is a job.

Step two is deciding whether you want to Dj Vinyl, or digital.

Hercules has some cool equipment for Digital, Stanton has the best vinyl.

Past that, watch this Dj's tutorials, and you will learn a lot.

Sorry, that's the best I've got. Good luck.

Oh, and check

AMAZON

GUITAR CENTER

Any adequate instrument shops in your area.

[naikou4lyfe]
