Scratching is a DJ
or turntablist technique used to produce distinctive sounds by
moving a vinyl record back and forth on a turntable while
manipulating the crossfader and volume faders on a DJ mixer. While scratching is
most commonly associated with hip hop music, since the 1990s, it
has been used in some styles of pop and nu metal. Within Hip Hop
culture, scratching is one of the measures of a DJ's skills, and
there are many scratching competitions. In recorded hip-hop
tracks, Premo style scratched hooks often use portions of different rap
songs to create a new rhythmic sequence.
