2tall Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 you can work on it all u want, but the best way is to develop your sense of humour! toadstyle is the funkiest scratcher on the planet bar none, some of the shit on SS is so rideckolosly funny!! other than that, a sense of timing, swing - that is'nt academic, i.e. comes from your creative/conceptual side if you want funky scratches, listen to madlib, no shit.

Solemn Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 if you want funky scratches, listen to madlib, no shit. maybe he´s a little funky but hmm...i always wondered why they chose him for the brasilintime tour :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2tall Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i would say cos he knows more about instrumentation and musicality, i.e. he can play all kinds of stuff - plus he pulls a crowd so its good business sense too, no scratch dj outside the beat junkies or a handful of others would really pull a crowd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2tall Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 awww man he's crazy funky for me, funky is looseness, like just off the beat, human sounding, you can really hear it in beat programming from people like dilla/oh no/hi tek a lot.. but for the cuts, madlib i say!

chile Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i lost the little funk i had when my fingers collapsed on me, now everytime i cut i always got this feeling like shit will happen again and it stops me enjoying cutting as much and experiamenting as much as i used to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blak Randy Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ahh, come on. If we are truly talking the funkiest scratcher it's got to be D Styles. Toad is ill but every time d cuts it's completely different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 The best way to get funky scratches is to learn on a shit mixer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2tall Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Ahh, come on. If we are truly talking the funkiest scratcher it's got to be D Styles. Toad is ill but every time d cuts it's completely different. we're getting into real nerd territory but i have to say tha dee is more mind based, and toad is more heart based, that's where people tend to split off in terms of their perception, neither is more valid when it comes to art, personally i think toad has the hearty humour, and dee is more mentally funny.   ..ggnarff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geek crack. haha.Listening to SS against some of D's files I'd agree but watching them cut I'd go with D more for feel. Ahh. Sod it. Who cares. Lets just scratch (Badly in my case).

broma Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Well I don't know about some of madlib's scratching in that but still a wicked clip. Is the dvd for Brasilintime out yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbay Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 do you reckon one could get funkier over time? would that just be more about somoene just gettin more in tune with themselves and just lettin loose, rather than focusing on tech so much? i reckon its just about breathing.

smyrx Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 you gotta be born with it, you can't develop it, that's impossible oh and i suppose you were born with it huh? that's the stupidest shit i've ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
