- As a student of DJing for 33 years, I’ve witnessed scratch DJs of all kinds. From the most basic to the most advanced, and the truth is an overwhelming majority I encounter undervalue the importance of the "Stab" scratch. Consequently, rarely do you hear DJs freak this foundational scratch technique. It's like dudes are quicker to learn modern cuts like the "Flare" instead of "meat and potato" scratches like the #Stab.
Then there are those scratchers who have the will to learn it, but aren’t sure of the way to go about developing the necessary L/R hand coordination and endurance to execute the #Stab. Hopefully this tutorial can serve as a road map.

Such an underrated scratch. In a Masters hands......it can be made to sound way more advanced than it actually is. Example: Shortkuts lightning fast stabs are insane!
Great tutorial Rob!!!!
Exactely! Shortkut is an excellent examle!
I’m watching this shit at work...practicing the air motions at my desk while in a meeting. Glued to the lessons.
Respect! 💪🏾
Your description is spot on. The same can be said for the pinch, even the baby and chirp. Stabs are the most physically demanding scratch especially when you go beyond 120bpm.
Rob Swift you are a gatekeeper of this craft AKA Grandmaster, Salute 🔈🔉🔉🔊🔊🔊
RESPECT!
@@robswift1551 honestly, you should rename yourself to grandmaster swift, you earned it bro
I turned on my set in middile of the night to hit some stabs ...just cause i was watching this.... Good Stuff Rob Swift
Ha! AWESOME!
One of the BEST if not the BEST deejay tutorial. Rob Swift is amazing. Had to subscribe after after I saw this video. 💯💯
Great teacher and student!
Thank you @DJ B-Easy. I appreciate the love.
Rob you videos are great. I just started djing last year. Learning on controllers and serato I began to develop bad practice habits and stopped progressing after a certain point. Watching your gave me the fundamental skills and proper practice techniques to understand dj elements.. Keep up the great work💪
Thanks for posting this @Rob Swift. I'm going to start using these two patterns in addition to plain old stab drills to help build up my weak scratch side. Old habits die hard. Hopefully one day I will end up as half nice as you and Craze are on both sides.
Rob you break it down so simple. Truly magnificent to watch a master at is work
Right on brother 💪🏾
Great instruction. I will need to watch this multiple times. Thanks for sharing
I love the stab! It's hard for me to master. Thank you so much for this video.
You truly are an inspiration sir. This video was amazing to watch. Just simply wanted to say thank you.
Whoa!!!! what a good teacher and the student caught it fast!!!!!
Much respect to the Legendary Mix Master Ice. My Mentor.
New appreciation of the stab. Something else to practice. @robswift keep it up.
I've been having exactly the same problem with my stabs! This lecture quenches my thirst for knowledge, and all I need to do is to stab the hell out of my vinyl. And also as a teacher myself (of course not on djing!), I learned a lot from the way how you engage with your student. Thanks for this invaluable video.
Swift, you are a Great hands on teacher. I love your ability to convey the technical aspect of this Element. Your direct teaching and hands on approach allows for faster absorption by the pupil. Very well done and thank you for making these videos public for everyone to learn.
Advent One can’t agree more with your statement. Rob Swift is a blessing to all aspiring deejays..
@@anthonymaina2215 Thank you Good Sir!
Excelente clase, todo debe aprenderse a su tiempo y en ciclo correcto, Gracias por hacer publico este tutorial sensei Rob, un saludo desde Colombia, Bendiciones !!!
awesome video man, much love & respect, thanks man, looking forward to more videos bro :)
The clip of the old video with the line going down it was so classic. The mixer had woodgrain!
"ALL THAT SKRATCHINZ MAKIN ME RICH"...
Woow I learned so much,love it!
Love listening to Robs scratches always sound so clean and nice, i'm revisiting my stabs! & Rob is a great reference point LOL! (Give what you've mastered and held precious or it will one day die with you!!)
Man, a DJ not knowing Mix Master Ice made me feel old! He's one of the DJs I grew up listening to.
Great teacher !
Imagine being able to just go round the black belt's house and get an in person lesson 0_o As someone that's trying to improve their admittedly basic mixing skills, these videos are helpful as hell.
Wow. I dont think he knew but he was doing the roxanne roxanne stab. Good shit
Wow wow wow, that was so interesting, i perfected my stab scratches, but I have trouble with chirping. When I heard your student scratching at 3:25 and I thought "wow this guy is way ahead of me“ and then seeing how he’s having troubles with a basic stab blew my mind. It’s true what you preach, it’s only a matter of wether your mind is ready to tap into the pattern. His mind was ready for chirping, but not stabbing while my mind was the exact other way around. 🤯
Same here
My chirps still suck (trying to change that) but my stabs are lighting fast
Hi Rob, loving your videos and tutorials, I was an MC during the 90s club scene in the UK. I've recently started to learn the craft at 47yrs old.
My question is do you think I'm too old? Everything I've learned so far is from your videos also I love the history behind all the hip hop movement. I just wanted to say you are the dude man. Absolute pleasure listening and learning from you. Peace and goodwill for 2021 bro
Hey Rob love the way you refference old skool tracks to teach yo students I've learnt a lot and I never liked history class 😆😂
Oh shit! I haven't heard that beat since I was like 22 yrs old... Crazy Leggs & Aim To Plrase
I mean Aim to Please - "Get Em Down"
I’m going to practice this when I get home I’ve been watching your videos I’ve been of the game for a while
Who else is here in 2021 feeling like you're learning cheat codes for scratchin
Your Real teacher bro
Dope vid
buen maestro.rob swift
Question: Is Grasshopper’s fader hand messing up his accuracy? He has a real wide thing going on that’s more conducive to chirping rather than stabbing?
exactly my thought..
damn he killed it in that end scratch, great teacher
rob you is the best am trying to learn the crab
👀 Yes I hafta learn how to find and continue to find the mark!
Enunciate the scratch!!!!! yes
good lessons,,step by step
Appreciate these videos 🙏
and to think this whole time i thought the chirp was more important
Wooow dude was sooo sick aswell
First thing I noticed at the beginning of the video was that his fader hand seemed too relaxed for precision. One thing I love about DJ’s is that they are one of the few instrumentalists that have to be both hand balanced to play. Relying on dominant hand technique is like a basketball player shooting on one side of the hoop. You gotta get past being uncomfortable to actually be comfortable.
Crazy Leg's throw down was fresh as fuck too... his style was hilarious!
The part where he is scratching fast, almost like a spasm movement with the hand, is that just a scribble scratch without the fader ? Sounds soo good! It makes the routine I think
So good❤️🙏🏻
If you're using a cdj signal control, the needle point is always off. It's probably more accurate with vinyl...
YO WAS THAT CRAZY LEGS GETN DOWN!?..
The one and only.
great video.
Here's a question, if I wanted to practice these cuts, at home, do I need to use the same song sample, specific to this exercise?? I'm only curious, so that when I start following along, I can do it correctly, thanks man. Much Love & Respect to the DJ, Big Ups.... :)
No, you do not. That's a very popular misconception amongst many.
the instrumental ?
He kilt dat shit 🔥🔥🔥💪🏿
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
is it a good tip tho to use the eyes? Personally i just listen to the sound i can have my eyes closed and its easier to get to the sample
17:34 magic
I just want to be able to do clean transitional scratches I’m not looking to be a Red Bull world champ
Perfect explaining!!!! The first beat is from a specific song???? I d like to know the title please
How do you feel after this lesson?
Mannnn, i would love 2b able 2 answer that question ftom mr Rob S.
What beat is that you're scratching over?
16:35 ok I think we just jumped 2 years of practice! 😂
I STILL HAVE THAT UTFO RECORD. WISH I NSTILL HAD TURNTABLES :( Opps Sorry about the Caps
Wait.... did he say he's a beginner!!! 🥵
Anybody can identify this classic break? thnx.
I can STAB easily, But I can't Flare worth shit.
Stabs are very basic, flares are more for intermediate scratchers and up.......if you dont get the flare down you will never get to learn many of the more advanced scratches.....if your not comfortable starting with the fader open (standard flare) then try a Tugjob scratch or OG flare so you can start with the fader closed. Hope this helps.....
Dj Knyfestryke thanks for the tip! I never strived to learn how to do more intricate scratches. Because some DJ's get too carried away with it in a Bar/Club setting, I have been complimented many of times for not scratching to every song that I play. But I wouldn't mind working more on my scratches just for the hell of it.
where can i find that ahh sound?
Check Dj TLM tv on youtube there's scratching tutorial and link to ahhh sound you can check dj TLM on SoundCloud ahhh should be there as wel
Ahhh Fresh
#TRAININGDAY
What's the name of the song you guys are scratching to
His fingers are too far apart on the faded that’s why he is opening up so much
Skip to 6:00
2:48 focus more danniel son
That is a good tutorial turning mean..
Nope
You all cheating with these decks.. scratch with no lap top no Serato…. Just on REAL decks/turntables.. like technics 1200/1210’s THEN you can play…
