Week 5: Lasers

This scratch can be difficult to get right, but it can sound and look really cool when done well. Flick the record quickly back and forth, using either thumb and index finger or just index finger. It helps to use longer, more consistent scratch samples like tones or ahhhhs.

Week 6: Bubble Taps

These can add some really cool off-beat cuts to your repertoire. Space bubble taps between more complicated and intricate cuts. Lightly tap the record as it moves forward to achieve a stuttering sound. Try varying how many times you tap during the scratch sample and for how long you stop the record with the tap.

Week 7: Phasers

Another flashy two-handed scratch. While holding the record with one hand, use the other hand to push the record forward, creating a very sharp/staccato sound. Can be used to create a “pew pew” laser gun type effect.

Week 8: Swipes

A two-handed technique that achieves four sounds. While doing consistent babies, use your other hand to “swipe” across the record in the opposite direction the record is moving. Creates a more rounded/legato “1 click-flair” sound.
