15 Levels of Turntable Scratching: Easy to Complex

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Turntablism is the art of using the turntable as a musical instrument. DJ Shortkut explains turntablism in 15 levels of difficulty, from easy to complex. Shortkut starts with the very basics of scratching all the way to complicated techniques like beat juggling Geograph: -The first direct-drive turntable was invented by Shuichi Obata, an engineer at Matsushita (now Panasonic, based in Osaka, Japan. It eliminated belts, and instead employed a motor to directly drive a platter on which a vinyl record rests. In 1969, Matsushita released it as the SP-10, the first direct-drive turntable on the market, and the first in their influential Technics series of turntables. - I wonder, how phonographs will evolve in the next 50 years)

The legend Shortkut! For those who don't know, this man was part of an influential group of Bay Area DJs in the 90s called the Invizibl Skratch Piklz, which included other legendary scratch DJs such as Q-Bert, Mix Master Mike, D-Styles, Yogafrog, Flare, and Disk. The level of influence these guys had on modern DJing cannot be understated. Couldn't have picked a better DJ to break down the theory of turntablism and scratching! Thank you Wired for this video!

Love watching the beauty of the -hand and platter dancing- we get to see in the top down view. Anyone know if that top down view was/is ever projected on a screen during performances?
Deep respect to DJ Shortkut, for his skill obviously, but especially his ending statement. So humble and nurturing.

This was a totally awesome episode, I love this person, as much as I love the whole concept of turntablism. I just went and checked wikipedia, and I was disappointed that there was no entry for shortkut. His knowledge and skill was demonstrated amply in this video.

The drum scratch using the volume control instead of the crossfader definitely gives it a unique sound. The crossfader gives it a more halted sound where the crossfader sounds a bit more fluid.

I have a earing condition that I cannot stand woffer beats. They really increase my anxiety, so it was really hard for me to listen to this.
Although it was extremelly interesting.
