The Chirp Scratch | Skratch School

Chirps are a very funky scratch that are kind of tricky to understand. Watch Skratch Bastid break down how to do them, give suggestions on how to make them sound different & original, and demonstrate how they sound on their own and in combos.

I've always wanted a pair of decks to scratch with since I was a teenager. Now that I'm an adult I bought a decent pair of direct drive's and built a solid table to house everything on. Now I'm ready. Thanks for these videos! They are helping me out a lot

I’m about halfway there w chirps! I can get them every single time but they’re just not fast enough. Been practicing for about 5 days now, thx to Coronavirus quarantining here in Seattle.
