Another freestyle scratch for today, despite my arm injury def scratching has been a key part in my injury rehabilitation workouts to get my arm strength back in full 🙏
A quick background on the Art of Scratching
It’s crazy to think about how the art form of scratching started, and how it’s since grown into arguably one of the most important skills a DJ can have!
Scratching all started when a young Grand Wizard Theodore accidentally invented it! he was playing records in his room when his mom walked into the room to speak to him. Not wanting to lose track of the record he was playing and listening to; he stood there moving the record back and forth whilst he was speaking to her.
Grand Wizard Theodore thought it sounded cool, so he experimented some more, and from there, scratching was born! He can also be credited for inventing the needle drop as well. A technique where you start spinning a record, before dropping the needle at the exact spot you want the music to play, all without cueing up the record in advance.
