#100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch – Instagram Recap Days 61-70

December 7, 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 61-70. Let’s GO!

Day 61 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. A little stutter vocal cut combo I will be teaching in the next tutorial for all my members. Not a member? Click the link in my profile to get started. Tip: recording your scratches is a great way to remember combos and things you can keep working on. Beat: Wave Looper. #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #funkyfresh #vocalcuts

Day 63 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Yo! Some mellow cuts because it's 28c in the UK ? and aircon is not part of a Brits vocabulary or lifestyle!

Day 64 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. I can break it down! In this case because the homie @dj_brace teaches me cool stuff to practice! Fell in love with this @naxsyofficial remix of @bobsinclar "Feel The Vibe". That bass! Something a bit different to what the world of scratch is used to. I love what naxsy is up to on the combined production and scratch vibe. Thanks also to #schoolofscratchstudent Rob for linking me to Naxsy in the first place. ?? #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #naxsy #bobsinclar #feelthevibe

Day 66 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Have you put the needle to the record today?! Take 10 minutes to do something creative (DJ or not) that you love today. You'll be more you and that's a great place to approach life from. Listen to the full song for more inspiration: "We hold the key, to our destiny We can make it everybody Feel the music Just free your mind, sit back relax and unwind To a higher plane we're going Can you feel the music?" Beat: Feel the Music. Jazzmatazz – Guru. #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #jazzmatazz #guru #feelthemusic

Day 67 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. How can you switch up your scratch practice today? You might be surprised at the inspiration that results. Today I switched up my location and setup. I DEFINITELY scratch differently on my @raidenfader / Vestax Handy Trax setup. I use a lighter touch plus it's a bit lower. I always feel more relaxed for some reason. The result is new combos. This one is a hybrid boomerang dice type thing! Slice to 4 dices then end with some fast boomerangs. Beat: @redefrecords #damu judgement day. ?? #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #raidenfader #vestax #vestaxhadytrax #scratchcombo

Day 68 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. 2 click chirp flares with the @raidenfader? No problem! It's holds up real well! Beat: @redefrecords #damu You Know who! ?? #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #raidenfader #vestax #vestaxhadytrax #scratchcombo

Today marks the official end of #The100DayProject which I am participating in with the #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch Except it’s not the end for me! You may have realised that I have missed some (read: a lot) of days. I'm on day 69 and intended to have created a scratch video every single day to reach 100 today, but I haven't. I ended my other 100 Day Project over at @emmaholmesart early on day 62 so I could focus on scratching and serving you better here. I'm actually OK with all of the above and with what could be perceived as "failure”. I don’t see it that way. The truth is, I know in my heart that I have been creating everyday, just not always for this project. I chose to make a conscious decision many days to focus on high priority tasks with the tima available relating to serving my Supa Scratch Crew in the School of Scratch and working on creating the future. Plus just plain old taking care of myself. I’ve learnt more than you can possibly imagine and some really cool collaborations, projects and changes have come into being as a result, which I would not exchange for the world. One of which I will be announcing soon involves writing a book. I’ve definitely grown and expanded as a result and this project, unfinished as it is, has made more things possible. Wherever you are in your 100 day project, be encouraged. Keep creating, it’s all that really matters, 100 Day label or not. 31 days to go. Are you with me?! To #The100DayProject and @allarminda who told me about it in the first place. I’m so grateful. ??????? Sending you all love and hugs. xxx? #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl

Day 69 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Nobody can beat you at being YOU! Do your thang! Cutting up some wisdom from @jacobsokol talking about a 50 cent interview and how, although 50 does not consider himself to be the greatest rapper, he IS the best at being HIM. We can ALL be the greatest at being OURSELVES. How about leaning into THAT today?! Beat: @50cent in da club. I'm declaring this the official day 50 entry in honour. #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #50cent #sensophy #jacobsokol #indaclub #beyou #inspiration #motivation #scratchwisdom #coaching

Day 70 of #100DaysOfSchoolOfScratch & #The100DayProject. Sharing is ? and sparks creativity. This clip has a story as they all do. @thelongplayer (big ? to you girl) posted the new Black Eyed Peas video (which I love), I shared it with my students aka the Supa Scratch Crew and Dylan shared this track back. I've totally not checked out the early BEP stuff and I'm currently digging it! It inspired me to create this from the instrumental and acapella. What blew me away though was Dylan's message to our private FB group: "I just want to mention that becoming a School Of Scratch member has been one of the best things that has happened in my life time. Even though I have never met any of you, I consider all of you close friends & family. Emma thanks again for creating a scratching community as fulfilling as this is. Have a most excellent weekend." I'm so touched by that message! It's why I do what I do. Its about so much more than scratching. Thanks D for sharing and being so open. Big love to you all ?. Beat: Black Eyed Peas – Joints and Jams. #Dj #skratch #skratching #scratch #scratching #turntablism #turntablist #technics #vinyl #supascratchcrew #blackeyedpeas #bep #jointsandjams
