Week 29: Slug March

Scratch Overview

Slug March is usually performed over a half-time beat, the slug march actually begins at the end of the sound... pulling the record backward. This can achieve a very cool off-beat style pattern using tears, chirps, and flares.

Center Fader Position: Open-Closed-Open

Scratch Notations: The BOTTOM of the graph (where the blue line begins) is the start of the scratch sample. The TOP of the graph (where the blue line peaks) is the end of the scratch sample. PUSH the record FORWARD from BOTTOM to TOP and PULL the record BACK from TOP to BOTTOM. The distance from LEFT to RIGHT of the graph is the speed of how fast you move the record.
