DJ Scratching for Beginners

Hi, everybody welcome to Expert Village. I am DJ Shy and I will be teaching you how to do basic scratches. A little bit about myself, I was the first female on-air mixer on 102. 7 KIIS-FM here in Los Angeles it features Ryan SeaCrest as our morning host. I have been spinning for about six years now, mostly here in Los Angeles, Hollywood. A lot of it is night club gigs, but I also do weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, anything from sporting events to red carpet and movie premieres. I have been spinning in Asia, Canada and all over the US. So, I am very excited to talk to you about how to do the basic scratches which are the baby scratches, the flares, the transforms and the chirps.
