    Question on Scratching

    May I ask if there is any tip or sample combo list that can let me try practising scratching combo?

    I find although I can handle each of the technique I still cannot link those scratch up to be a sentence.

    Thx mate~!

    Happy scratching and DJing.

    I would recommend checking out some videos on YouTube which display some combos. It has helped me out with some of my scratching.

    Here is a great tutorial - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4Yu5WvnB6o He uses 1200's but you can apply the methods to digital turntables.

    one more question:
    Forward, Drag, crap, flares, transformer, stab, chirps

    Is there any further scratch I need to learn or I just need to listen and simulate the others pattern sentence to make it familiar?

    Tears, They will add a lot of flavor to your combos... I like the clover tear ( 2 forward, 2 back ) but basic 1 forward two back tears sound dope too.

    hey looks like all the advanced scratching are based on fundamental scratch combos, am I right?

    yea, make sure you have a strong grasp of the fundamentals - those will always take you places. i always prefer listening to a dude or lady who's got solid fundamental cuts down compared to someone who knows many scratches, but don't sound as clean.
