MadAbbott Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Curious if anyone taught themselves to do these? (think the official name is drills, correct me if wrong!) When you tense your arm to do stupidly fast babies on the record. I can do them on my fader (strong) hand without really ever trying to learn them but not with my record hand (weak hand), been trying a bit every day and not really getting any stronger or able to last more than a couple of seconds, just wonder if anyone had found a technique they could share or if its one of those things you either can or can't do! I know Sy is a badman at these so will be curious for his suggestions! Something like Vazee's doing from 1:22 to finish here, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I do em with my weaker hand i guess, i use my middle finger (or "business finger") the most tense bit of it all is my hand i guess, im not trying to flex on my arm so much i think....Theres definately some "pat your head and rub your belly" shit to learn if you wanna combine it with fader movements, which i find sound better when your fader hand is relaxed..

MadAbbott Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Ahh ok, that's interesting, I was really tensing my arm as I remember Q in a vid somewhere saying u " make your arm spasm", I'm glad you told me that before I probably do irreparable damage to my arm lol. Did you find u could just do them or took some work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELGEE Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I can do them really well with my right hand but I cut with my left hand on the record which is so annoying. I have tried for ten years to learn them on my left but just can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
