Part Two of Three:
Nailing the Technique

Find a sample or sound on your record to practice
scratching on. Listen to records with an ear for little
moments around which you might build a whole song. Break-
beats, the moments during which all the instruments drop out
and the drums remain, are commonly isolated for use as the
beats in hip-hop tracks, while instrumental tracks often make
good melody lines to pair them with.

Listen closely to records and stop the record when you hear
something you might like to use. Go back and try to find
the exact moment that sound begins.

much of a computer aficionado, this would have surely crossed
your mind once. Why is the default drive in MS-Windows
computers the C drive? The drives beyond that one are labelled D,
E , and so on. If you plug in USB drives, they get F and G. So yeah,
what about A and B ?
