  “You have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself.” ~ Miles Davis I’m 4 decades deep in studying the art of Scratching and when I summarize all of the ideas I’ve personally collected from it’s framers (GrandWizzard Theodore, Grandmixer , Jazzy Jay) to the latter pioneers (Cash Money, Dr. Butcher, Q-Bert, D Styles) I’d say if you want your scratches to carry a deeper meaning, connect your heart to your hands and head! “I look back to vids from 20 years ago of Q transforming and he makes it look so easy with so much swing. Even to this day I can do more technical scratches but can’t transform anywhere near the level of what he was doing then from a pure rhythm point of view.

That said, what he wrote about being able to “perform technical scratches but [he] can’t Transform anywhere near the leve...

  Typically when scratching, your audience is experiencing a combination of two sounds. Your scratches and the beat you’re scratching to. These aspects of the music you’re projecting to people’s ears are happening simultaneously but also separate from each other. The spatial terms background (the beat) and foreground (your scratches) can be used to describe both elements. How a DJ works with these two ingredients will impact your listener’s ability to sonically differentiate what they’re hearing. Artists call it Negative Space Perception and this article will explain how a drawing concept like NSP can improve your scratching style. When you stare at the Graffiti piece below, we see a girl reaching for a Bonsai plant. What you may not be accounting for though, is how the negative space in this picture or what we don’t see (the emptiness) accentuates the action our eyes are observing i.e., the girl reaching for the Bonsai plant. The emptiness within this work of art is subtle, yet th...
