35 years of mixing and trying to scratch and you’ve broken it down beautifully. Thanks and subscribed ❤
Thank you blighty , i been trying for years to nail it , finally getting somewhere , thank you :)
Love to hear it.
A metronome is good help
Hey dude just got a Numark pro 2
Yes this was a great example! Simple start point and exercise of the hand and after many repetitions, and patience, I'll learn yes!! I like this video because he concentrates on exercise as opposed to just a person scratching so fast that we don't know what he's doing, Thanks Dj Blighty - this was filmed in 2018 its 2020 now, I got a lot of catching up : )
Why are all DJ videos lengthy and never straight to the point? Every. Single. Tutorial.
I TOTALLY AGREE. I do NOT want to hear what the guy's history is, why he decided this or that BLAH BLAH BLAH, GET. TO. THE. POINT.
Nice one DJB, needed something exactly like this to get started. Mixed for 20 years and never knew where to start with scratching.
Hope it was useful Timmy
where did you get your scratch sound?
Anyone asks me about scratching I send them to this video.
The baby scratch comes in handy when you're beginning to learn how to scratch, I like the chirp, transformer and the forward scratches they require a little more skills that's why it's a challenge for me learning how to scratch and mix with similar techniques.
You have to start everything slow & build up one step at a time. It's taken me years to build up speed with more complex scratches. Patience is key.
This comes in handy as i were in lockdown i want to learn how to scrach
That's right, same here! This quarantine did helped alot to get better
Perfect time to practice
@Tomas Aldo LOL 😂
play soccer dude, you look like David Beckham 😂
Haha, thanks, I wish I did
Where can I get the sample and song?
Entroducing by DJ Shadow changed my life years ago and inspired me to want to make music/ trip hop that uses samples ( particularly from horror movies). I don't really see it as a potential career, more like a hobby putting albums together where I bring my love for music and horror movies together. Think trip hop acid jazz and music/ effects/ dialogue from horror movies..
The problem is, I have zero idea where to start, and I'm not going to be able to ask DJ shadow for advice - so any help? Am i looking in the right area here? Is there a difference between being a dj and what dj shadow does?
Yeah DJ shadow is awesome, definitely watch some more tutorials here sounds like you'll want to do a bit of sampling as well. I'd recommend just starting out with a DAW and use that to sample loops, dialogue off the internet its alot cheaper and easier than doing the real thing and going crate digging. Also work out where DJ shadow got his sample froms so you can learn how to look for the right kind of samples In the right places, I think he sample David Axelrod alot
I searched DJ Shadow after reading your comment, I think I am on the same path as you
Hey yo mate I’m trying to scratch on my DJ controller and I don’t think I have big enough hands for it
Wow i learned a lot just within the first 3 mins... awesome tutorial!!
Glad it helped you out. Try to keep things as simple as possible.
I got the Numark mixtrak pro3 and serato perpetual all the expansions so this is VERY helpful TYSM!
Glad to help :)
thanks so much! love the name and the simpsons sample!
Do you have to download the scratch to put on your sampler if you need to scratch
What was the song that you were using for this example?
Simon Says by Pharaoh Monch
This was super helpful! One question though, do you find yourself scratching on one deck (left or right) and playing tracks on the other? Or is it good practice to be able to scratch on both decks?
Happy to hear that Rohan. It's all down to personal preference. Some people like the left or right more, some people are just as comfortable with both. Just do what feels most natural to you.
You do both. A DJ when flipping records might have to scratch after switching sides on the fader.
where do we get the sounds from?
Your records!
Guys I know I look stupid but, what was the name of the track in the beginning?
Bro this is by far best video on youtube i learning now how to scratching on my controller thanks brother
Can someone give me the sample? Thanks!
Check me out! I'm 14!

Waaaayvtoo much talking in the beginning and throughout the video… Cut down the explanation. If they want to know how to do it, they most like already know the basic.
It's a tutorual for BEGINNERs, they need the explanation. 🙄
Wow its so simple
Please send me a message on where to get that scratch sound
This video could have lasted 11 seconds not eleven minutes
Finally a real step by step approach
What’s the sample you have on the left platter?
Cheers for the video. Decks are back out and it’s time to learn the art 👍
That's what I like to hear
What program do u use?
i cant set my cue point marker to 12 pm position
Thanks for the lecture,
Yes best man ever DJ Blighty

Everyone run from this. Go learn how to scratch from DJs like QBert and The Beat Junkies. They use vinyl and have won multiple DMC championships. QBert is considered the best scratch DJ to ever live.
Gracias!!! Very well explained ;)
Most welcome :)
You sound like Richard Madden! The KING Of THE NORTH!!
You are an excellent teacher! Love from India.
Thank you Chris. I appreciate that.
Awesome vids mate! Go on!

Hi. I found this very helpful. Is there a certain type of needle for scratching on vinyl? I have technic 1200’s with a set of normal Stanton needles. Thanks

What website do i go to and get scratch beats or scratch samples
HELLO I HAVE A QUESTION.. I HAVE TRAKTOR Z2 AND SOME TURNTABLES AND I KNOW HOW TO SCRATCH LIVE BUT THE THING IS I WANT TO TAKE THAT SCRATCHGES AND USE THEM AS HOOK IN SOME SONGS..SO MY QUESTION IS HOW TO RECORD JUST THE SCRATHES-CUTS AND NOT THE INSTRUMENTAL WHEN I HEAR THAT FOR TIME SYNC THEM WHEN THE HOOK PART OF THE SONG ARRIVES.....(MY CAPITALS IS BECAUSE I CANT SEE IN SMALL LETTERS) THANXS
Thanks brother very helpful 👌
What is the name and model of the controller in this video?
Ok gonna start practicing
That's what's up
I've always wanted to learn how to scratch
please am o.t from ghana i need some controler
Thank you really really much!!!! Amazing instructions... 😁
how can i have the samples for pratics
Song?
I've been trying to scratch and transition with hip hop music, but I'm having a nightmare with this, would you recommend starting out with an instrumental playlist for a while ?
jack Girling try to match the bpm
Do I need to use the crossfader as well
Hello pls i need some scratch samples
Would love a advanced level video! More scratching with other songs instead of the sound
Ok
What kinda mic is that on the shelf
Cheers fellow cardiff man
🙏🏽🙏🏽
What controller is this?
How do you know which hand you use to scratch? Is it easier to use your dominant hand for scratching and your other hand for the crossfader?
It’s up to you. Try both hands on the platter/fader... you’ll soon discover which is more comfortable for you!
Lust for Low-End thanks for that
What is the title of the instrumental you used in this tutorial pls?
It's Pharoah Monch - Simon Says. Classic Hip Hop anthem.
Dope. So simple. Thanks a ton
I just want to be able to transition between tracks smoothly I dont need to be a red bull champ of I can accomplish that I'm cool
Ok cool, why are you watching video about scratching then?lol
@@DJBlighty Because I'm talking in general first off and two I was do wanna learn to scratch I just dont need to be a red bull champ getting in and out of tracks is good enough for me
Simply choose songs with really close and similar bpm's. Then sync them. Remove the bass from the second song, and gradually re introduce the bass back in before the 1st song ends
Thanks for this tutorial ! Can you tell me where you got your desk? I can’t seem to find a decent one anywhere . Much appreciated. Like n subbed .
I'm going to show this video to all of those asking me how to scratch. This is basic & straight to the point. Thanks, Blighty!
Jim Ligon Thanks Jim, appreciate that. Tried to keep it as simple as possible
Yo, how do you scratch?
Thank you so much
Thank you DJ, What the instrumental name? please
Ok Pharoahe Monch-simon says, thanks the subtitle :)
Hope it was useful. It's a classic Hip Hop tune called Simon Says by Pharoah Monch
Song name?
Can same be done with the right hand?
Ofcourse, just mirror the process
