I feel like I'm leaving out some big time DJ performances tho. Scratching has fallen so far out of the mainstream that it's hard to recall 30 year old songs and pick out nice work.

|
3010324, damn... you're right it probably is Marley on the cuts... Posted by My_SP1200_Broken_Again, Wed Oct-10-18 08:39 AM
...i always assumed it was Cool V ..there's also the track "cool v's tribute to scratching" from Biz 1st LP where that's definitely Cool V on the cuts.

3010247, This is a good one too Posted by sectachrome86, Mon Oct-08-18 12:18 PM
My favorites are ones that I remember the exact scratches when I think of the song. A few Dilated joints with Babu and of course a lot of Preemo too.
If you really want to get nerdy about it Babu breaks down some Preem scratches in this vid from one of the Beat Junkies classes: https://youtu.be/GL2XSD8GPJo?t=1638

3010659, How could I forget Doomsday? Posted by sectachrome86, Tue Oct-23-18 11:47 AM
https://youtu.be/y4UhKfzStqI
Not really technically impressive, but sounds dope and is a major part of the song.
|
3012458, This may be the winner. I agree with your thoughts. Posted by Brew, Tue Dec-11-18 10:15 PM
They weren't all time scratches or anything groundbreaking but they fit this track PERFECTLY.
What an amazing beat. So chill. Love this song.
|
3012474, I'm pretty sure those are part of the sample though. Posted by mrhood75, Wed Dec-12-18 11:29 AM
He sampled the drums from "Poetry," and included the scratching as well.
|
3012488, Haha ohhh that would make sense then. Posted by Brew, Wed Dec-12-18 03:19 PM
Didn't know that.
|
3012545, HRMMMM Posted by sectachrome86, Fri Dec-14-18 12:52 AM
I feel dumb for not knowing that. Sounds dope on Poetry too. But I still think Doomsday is worth a mention just because scratching is such a prominent part of the song.
|
3012549, Haha I also feel pretty dumb for not knowing that. Posted by Brew, Fri Dec-14-18 09:32 AM
But agree with you that it should still be considered.

3012794, "M&M Gettin' Off" By Dj Magic Mike Posted by Dj Joey Joe, Sun Dec-23-18 03:16 AM
With me being from the southern east coast, bass or booty music was #1 when it came to hip-hop and almost 90% of all the music had DJs scratching in it's music early on but as time went by less & less songs became about the chorus hooks, chants, & big range of bass notes instead of the classic rapper & dj type songs.
One of my favorite artists who made bass music but also did a lot of sampling like the up north kats was Dj Magic Mike, and he had the deepest bass and the illest scratches on all his songs, the remix to "M&M Gettin' Off" off his second album was so crazy, after I first heard it, I wanted to scratch just like him, so I studied his scratching just like everyone who tried to imitate the way Dj Premier did in "Premier In Deep Concentration".
"M&M Gettin' Off (Remix)": https://youtu.be/A9V7hhvpZ3c
