Scratching.
Right, I wanna learn how to scratch!

Anybody got any tips?

I know it's gonna be a fuck load of practice and patience, Just something I wanna have a pop at doing and throw it into a set when i'm confident enough to do it live.

Add buds please people!

Spend time with your decks and develop your own style if your making different sounds than someone else thats good, try to feel it rather than thinking about what your doing, above all just be natural and don't be a stereotype. Everytime you make a new sound and you think you've made a mistake, you haven't keep developing that mistake until it sounds crisp.

Happy itching!!!!!!
