DJ SCRATCH PRACTICE ROUTINE ★ 12+ Scratch Techniques

Need to squeeze in a solid scratch practice but short on time?  I got you!

In this video, I guide you through 12+ different scratch techniques during a 20 minute interactive Q&A scratch practice session.

It’s a 2 BAR Q&A MIMIC DRILL  —  I scratch for 2 bars and then you copy me for 2 bars.

Each individual scratch in this routine starts out easy and then gets more challenging as we progress through the technique.

★ Tears
★ Stabs

★ Fade
★ Chirp
★ Transforms
★ Crabs
★ Flares

If you’re a beginner to intermediate level, this routine is perfect for you to practice using your “dominant” side.

(I prefer my right hand on the record with my left hand on the fader for most of my cuts, so that’s my ‘dominant’ side.)

PRO TIP: 
If you’re learning a new scratch, try it on both sides just to see which feels easier. Learn it on the easier side first, and then teach your other side how to do it.

Speaking of practicing on both sides, this Q&A practice routine is also a great workout if you’re a bit more advanced but need to practice on your non-dominate aka “weak” side.

I hope you enjoy this 20 minute Q&A scratch practice routine! ⚡  Lemme know in the YouTube comments if you have any lightning bolt moments!
