Bruh i been djing bedroom for years and recently have been gigging broke outta that into the clubs, i always wanted to learn to scratch...i watched these videos for 3 days and im already grasping this, the way you explain by far the best from all the other vids...Im currently now relocated to Belgium, might catch yo out here one day....keep spreading the knowledge #knowledge
For real the best on TH-cam to me have been a DJ for over 20 years my patient his blinding and mixing, when I first moved to the USA I used to listen to DJ Clu ,after my research on TH-cam when I found TLM I have been watching him ever since.
I’ve never heard using the crossfader explained that way. Using the analogy as your thing being on a rubber band is a game changer for me. Good lookin ✊🏾
Hi guys, I've been extremely busy with different projects, gigs and private life and as a result I was not able to make new video's in the last two weeks. I'm back in the lab right now and the new video's are dropping asap! Thanks for the support and patience. TLM
Mr.TLM , you are definitely not the last Mohican when it come's to the knowledge you're sharing, (you're the First). I myself fine your videos very helpful. Keep them coming, please.
Dj TLM, I was watching lots of your videos, and I have to post here my testimony. I`m from Brazil and your videos really helped me a lot to improve my sets and my scratching skills. thank you so much for being such a good and talented professional / teacher. keep going! success!
Hey get well man! .. I just started learning how to scratch, there are millions of tuts on youtube, and all I can say is that yours is probably by far, the most direct, clear, and no BS tutorial that I came across with.. Love how you keep things simple and precise, and that makes it easier for us beginners to learn fast.. You might not know it yet, but, after each vid, it makes us get hyped and all to hit that platter and fader!.. lol.. great job.. been repeating your vids from pt1.. trying to get that feel for the baby scratch, drops, tears, and fader movements before we get to pt6.. Thanks again for sharing the knowledge!!!.. peace!..
I started getting in to DJing almost 2 years ago and this was one of the first scratch tutorials I watched. It came across my feed and had to click on it again. It still is a joy to watch you work, TLM! Like you, the transformer scratch is my favorite as well.
Man, I'm late to the party on these tutorials. I've been mixing for a long time but never been able to scratch properly, so I just decided to try learning. I still suck, but with your help I'm sucking a little bit less, day by day. Thank you, man!
Good idea changing hands. Back in the days i had only one tt for scraching so i never tried later on to switch hand to exercise intentionally..good one 👍
SUCH AN AMAZING TUTORIAL , I've just been practicing starting yesterday from tutorial 1 but already see a huge improvement , gonna keep practicing and gonna be as good as you one day !!!
Im all like into Pantera, Deftones, Alice in Chains and stuff, but I watching your tutorials in a row! Very interesting. Brings me back when I was kid and listening to Beastie Boys and early Linkin Park. Thanks!
He’s all I can say one of the most wonderful scratch djs and an incredible instructor (teacher). I just can’t stop watching his tutorials. Precise and straight up to the point. Thanks a lot Dj TLM for the knowledge you keep sharing. I really appreciate.💯
Dj TLM thanks a lot. You explain step by step in a clear way , how to scratch, how to do the transformer effect and many more effect. Once again thanks a lot. U are the best. Peace.
You are very thorough sir, thank you. Breaking it down is super important. Some tutorials are just the fella scratching and hardly talking about it so thank you again for a very clear series.
You give excellent lessons. I learned to cut in the 80's through trial and error, but there wasn't much to learn at the time. When a new trick would be developed at DMC, I would practice it all year
You're videos are great sir.... I have been throwing down for 10 years and no matter how many lessons I've looked up - this was the first one that actually took form me. I'm "hyped up" like you were the first time - Cheers!
Helping me out A whole lot!Just want to say thanks for making these. Wish I would have had this 20 years ago, but felt like playing around again and your videos Making me scratch and mix like I never thought I could. So Thanks! Big UPS on DJ Jazzy Jeff he’s one of my all time favorites and cool you talked about him.
Man U have 1 of if not the best tutorial videos on TH-cam, and I just have 2 give U a HUGE shout out. I've learned so much from ur videos. Keep em comin
Again, I appreciate your videos/tutorials. Just curious... are you familiar or are you going to do any videos using or showing the functions of virtual DJ? I just got a NS6 which came with Serato, but I started with Virtual and it's much easier to me. I can't even figure out how to make the BPMs show up on Serato. I guess I would like to see a tutorial on how to use Serato too so I can become familiar with that as well.
These videos have helped me so much! I'm an electronic house dj, but thanks to these videos I'm starting to really like the whole scratching technique, thank you so much man, keep them coming! :D
Love these tutorials TLM. I find them really easy to follow. My scratching is tbh getting done! can't believe it. Just need to find the noise you used on the transformer scratch? :)
Great lesson! Your ability to make it practical and easier to understand with the why and how is important. I also appreciate you given the settings for controller or mixer for maximum effect.
HELLO dj, I'm from the old school who used tchenics dishes 1200. listened to the productions of breakdance and the sound of rhythmic scracht, it was like a few sparks, very nice, it's been so long and never succeeds in making a sound like that, me as Scratch baby. Hahaha, keep practicing, I'm dj for live.
thanks for this tutorial i now know how to scratch but i'm still knew to scratching.. i''ve been dj'ing for years but i don't know how to scratch... not until i've seen this one.. thanks djTLM
Yo I really getting into the DJing. I could remember as a kid I used to attend block party jamming out to DJ Uncle Al (Miami, FL). Now that Im a lot older with a career. I'm bringing it back to my house whole. Thanks for the tips and yes I will bridge the gap with Old school to New school.
Great stuff mate ! Been into scratchin for a while now and basically know all that stuff but your tutorials really helped me to kind of make my basic technique more solid and clean ! Nice presentation as well. What can i say, cool vids cool scratching cool guy !
Thank you man! This means a lot to me because I'm so in to music that I'm teaching my self Djing. Much blessing man! Tutorial are great because it is not many out there that can teach like this(like you)! Thank you once again and I will share the knowledge when my time comes!
Your the only one that I've seen that can explain it properly! Dj jazzy Jeff is the shizzzzz as well. Love the content! I'll post videos once I get a camera!
Nice scratch to practice! But, I noticed that I can't do this with my right (dominant) hand on the platter so I deceided to re-learn the first 4 tutorials with my left hand on the platter. Also the transformer-scratch produces a lower volume than the baby-scratch. I have all the crossfader-settings set-up the right way and have a sharp cut (DDJ-SB3).
Great tutorial, now I can do this. This is awesome!!!! Thank you DJ TLM you are the best. I thought that my controller is garbage, but no it is all about practice and software set up. Also thank you for great practice samples and beats. Yeaaaahhhhhhh :))))
Hi guys, Due to health issues I couldn't finish video's I was working on (NS7-2 review) and I can't record new video's either. I lost my voice over the weekend and that makes it a bit difficult to record stuff ;) I should be fine in a couple of days so stay tuned! For the DJ's who would like to be part of the Saturday Super Session: Join the Saturday Super Session and send me your own video!
I am totally new to the turn tables and the lingo. But I am not new to the hip hop sounds. I am from the hip hop beginnings. Now that I am much older, I don't hear those classic scratches like back in the day(Red Alert, Grandmaster Flash, Terminator X, and the list goes on and on) . I really appreciate these bangin tutorials your sharing with us dj TLM. Thanks so much, and my hats off to you. I want to look into some basic DJ equipment, pretty much the set up you have and the beat machine. Do you or anyone in this forum have any suggestions of where to find some nice equipment. I pretty much just want to mix and scratch in my own private setting, making sounds for some videos, like family events, nothing big, at least no time soon.
Thanks for the video it really helped me. But doesn't scratching also depends on the slipmat and what makes it slip for example butterrugs...and the type of stylus i use Shure...and finally the type of fader...I have a pioneer djm 250mk2 with magvel fader...but i hear the innofaders are way better
Nice to see a real turntablist. I remember hearing them do it I was like “What was that!” Now there using it in country songs 🙄 I liked the video and subscribed
Hey man I been DJin for years and just been simply mixing and doing a baby scratch thank you so much. I am using a new old numark mixdeck quad and now seeing the importance of the jog wheel and the feel. But anyway I learned some new things I can do with my mixer. Thank you so much this videos are awesome. #cjthedj216
do you use the mic on the camera or a lavaliere or on a phone (i saw your phone on the mixer) thanks for all the great videos! your channel is my favorite! keep it up :)
Is scratching still cool? I'm still rocking an 06Pro with vestax tables. I literally know no one who does this anymore. I do the transformer right hand on fader but other scratches with my left. Like if I get "deep into" a scratch with alot of center fader I do that right hand on vinyl.
Your videos are great and very informative, but can you please post or even say the name of the beats you're using. For me to download the same beat, I have to sift through all of your music to find it.
Bruh i been djing bedroom for years and recently have been gigging broke outta that into the clubs, i always wanted to learn to scratch...i watched these videos for 3 days and im already grasping this, the way you explain by far the best from all the other vids...Im currently now relocated to Belgium, might catch yo out here one day....keep spreading the knowledge #knowledge
You have really helped me ever since i saw your tutorial it has been so helpful thanks 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
This guy is an amazing instructor!
I agree. Probably the best on TH-cam.
For real the best on TH-cam to me have been a DJ for over 20 years my patient his blinding and mixing, when I first moved to the USA I used to listen to DJ Clu ,after my research on TH-cam when I found TLM I have been watching him ever since.
Facts. That’s also why he’s been and still is my tour DJ for the last decades
Stop the cap. I’ve seen better teachers than this guy.
I’ve never heard using the crossfader explained that way. Using the analogy as your thing being on a rubber band is a game changer for me. Good lookin ✊🏾
Hi guys,

Couldn't agree more. Extremely thorough, yet simple to grasp, and focused on the truly important elements.
The man is a pro! :)
What sounds do you like scratching ..like I love the iTS TIME intro or the Ahhh sound
I am totally new to the turn tables and the lingo. But I am not new to the hip hop sounds. I am from the hip hop beginnings. Now that I am much older, I don't hear those classic scratches like back in the day(Red Alert, Grandmaster Flash, Terminator X, and the list goes on and on) . I really appreciate these bangin tutorials your sharing with us dj TLM. Thanks so much, and my hats off to you.
I want to look into some basic DJ equipment, pretty much the set up you have and the beat machine. Do you or anyone in this forum have any suggestions of where to find some nice equipment. I pretty much just want to mix and scratch in my own private setting, making sounds for some videos, like family events, nothing big, at least no time soon.
Kenston Drye Try the Epsilon DJT-1300 USB set. Comes with two tables and a mixer, but no needles. Very simplistic.
Thanks for the video it really helped me. But doesn't scratching also depends on the slipmat and what makes it slip for example butterrugs...and the type of stylus i use Shure...and finally the type of fader...I have a pioneer djm 250mk2 with magvel fader...but i hear the innofaders are way better
This video is really Help ful...thanks alot TLM
Glad you liked it!
Absolutely dope. Love it
Thank you I going to start practicing on all your tutorials. ..

Is scratching still cool? I'm still rocking an 06Pro with vestax tables. I literally know no one who does this anymore. I do the transformer right hand on fader but other scratches with my left. Like if I get "deep into" a scratch with alot of center fader I do that right hand on vinyl.
Your videos are great and very informative, but can you please post or even say the name of the beats you're using. For me to download the same beat, I have to sift through all of your music to find it.
Thank you for this video and for "Sharing the Knowledge!"
A very good detailed tutorial
Damn you make it look easy. I can’t get that chipmunk sound ever.
Just continue to practice 👍🏽
