RE: Turntablism: The Evolution of the record player from a device for playing Music into an instrument
I remember one day in Barcelona's Apolo Club seeing Q-Bert hit play on a Mini Disc player showing what hip hop sounded like, then he hit stop and scratched it with his QFO Turntable. The same he did with almost every kind of electronic music. The climax was when he made D&B only by scratching a single record. The crowd never danced. We were completely astonished and thus paralyzed in bliss.
I suck at scratching lol.

Turntablism Like anything else it only takes practice and u be able to execute nice cuts! haha Nice meeting u and kudos on the comment!
Nice to meet you too man. Respect. I haven't looked for it online. Would be good to find it indeed. Will check and let you know if it's somewhere to be found.
Do you know DJ Murphy from Brazil?. Also insane scratching skillz!. A very good friend of mine as well :) he plays techno and does turntablism on his sets. It's insane.
Gotta get my 1200's back from my parent's basement soon...

Dunno DJ Murphy but I respect DJ's who incorporate scratching with various genres of music will check him out online. Nothing beats L1200's but bulky to move around for that I just bought a controller the Dennon MC4000 its pretty compact and good for wut I do i will be posting a video of some freestyles I was doing earlier.
Oh yeah, cheers man!. Looking forward to those vids!
Cheers!!!
