#100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch – Instagram Recap Days 41-50

December 5, 2015

Over the next few weeks, I am sharing my #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch Instagram video series in groups of 10 days.

I hope it inspires you to get on the decks or start your own project!

Today we are onto Days 41-50. Let’s GO!

Day 41 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Scratching up some words of wisdom from master coach Steve Chandler. You probably guessed by now that I ? coaching. Is it a dream or a project? I used to have scratch dreams, then I turned them into projects. Learning a new scratch was a project. Making tutorials was another project. Opening School of Scratch was another. How can you turn your dreams into projects? Take action today (even one small step) and watch what happens! Tell me what happens in the comments. Music: Ugly Duckling – Journey to Anywhere. I chose this track to go with these words specifically because it seems dreamlike to me. I also love the lyric in the full version "On a journey to anywhere you can draw ya own map"! Because we can dream anything we want and draw our own maps when we start converting those dreams into projects. GO! #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #vinyl #stevechandler #dream #dreams #project #coaching #scratchwisdom #dailyscratchwisdom #bedeliberate #inspiration #motivation #scratchloop #coolorcaps #coolorcapsfam

Day 42 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Pushes and my weird crossover record tazer vibe. I find it easier for some reason even though it's more effort. I'll break it down in a tutorial. Oh and reality check – I really struggled to make a video today! I wasn't feeling in the groove at all. I probably should have had a dance party instead to raise the vibe! If you have been following my videos and think it comes easy, sometimes it really doesn't! I'm a total scratch human just like you. Hope that encourages you to keep on keepin on! Music: Danbo looper by @br0ke #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #vinyl #danbolooper #danbo #broke

Day 45 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Boom boom akalakalaka boom part 2. Carrying on the previous video theme. An insight into how I approach scratching over beats and instrumentals – try copying the patterns in the music. This loop is pretty busy and full with instruments so I kept it simple with chirps that follow the vocals. I normally like to scratch over less busy tracks so everything has room to breathe, but sometimes with fun tracks like this, you just gotta go for it, have some fun and not take it too seriously. Don't forget to boogie! Beat: Walk the Dinosaur – Was Not Was. Shout out to @allarminda for posting the video of this track which triggered this clip. #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #vinyl #walkthedinosaur #boom #wasnotwas P.s yay 400th post! ???
