One of the best Crab tutorials still in 2020!
Sure is
you say that to all the deejayz haha!
fo real tho> I agree. 👌 straight to the point...practice makes perfect.
Could have showed how to do it slower
That was the best crab scratch tutorial I've ever seen. I can actually do it now. All these years I've been doing it wrong. Thank you so much
Yo - you’re a great teacher bro. Appreciate the way you communicate the important things when learning. Great Vid! Subscribed… let’s go
How skillful! Wow! You blew me away!!
That would have to be the most technical and perfect way of explaining how to do that. Props.
Your tip about not sweeping all at once was a HUGE help. I was having problems until you said that. Now it's moving along.
Good shit right here. My problem is thumb tension. Time to put in work.
I know it's basic but worth noting that you need to set your crossfader curves to steep for this - take it out of the blend setting and set it as close to cut as you're comfortable with.
FYI advice @1:57 fixed weeks of wretched attempts and within minutes i had muscle memory taking hold
TINKS!
nice - love the trumpet analogy!
Great Tutorial!
Loved it
big up to you for the great content
cool outfit and lesson, I do not speak English) but something that I understand. Thank you.Peace.
inspirational...time for me to get to work
Great video! helped a ton
Daaam boy that shit was dope
Great video bro, definitely gotta lotta practice to do on my crabs, been using two fingers, doin some kinda crab/transformer/swirl type deal.... Lol.... Bahahahaha... But I'm definitely gettn alot better with my transformers & with doin this repetitively with two fingers, but my third finger keeps funkn up my routine, or I wont hear the actual third note, for whatever reasoning behind my practicing, but im slowly getting there.... Thanx homie, sounds amazing, your a great skratch DJ...... Respex Big Upz Mad Love to the DJs....... 👍👌💪🔥💯😎
YOU DO ALL ......DOPE
thank you bro
if you scratch hamster(reverse) you technically can't crab, you can only do a three click flare. instead of cutting the sound on three times, you are cutting the sound off three times starting and ending with the fader open. also you get 4 notes in hamster while you get 3 in standard. no one ever mentions this. nice bid!
Yea I have been cutting my entire life Standard style and just recently tried Crabs via Hamster and found It's the similar as far as thumb/spring feel but the sound is different. In fact I like the way the Hamster crab cuts sound better than Standard Crabs. Or should I call this cut a 3 click flare, whatever
Have you seen Q tutorial? He invented the crape or crab scratch. He extended the twiddle by using ring finger. It's the same almost. The thumb allows the sound to bounce in the fingers are shutting the sound off. Non hamster thumb is closing fingers opening. So you can CRAB hamster. Keep scratching
@@barrywatts8501 Yes we all know the story of the Crepe/Crab scratch :)
@@barrywatts8501 That's not the point though... Both ways you are using your thumb as a spring but you are turning the sound OFF three times in hamster and turning the sound ON three times in standard. In hamster you are flaring and in standard you are crabbing... Even though you are doing the same hand motion they are two very different scratches...peace
@@FaderFlosser I see your point. Yeah I see that now 👍
Beautiful!
Great video!😃👍
yo 2021 hh..
Boy, i can make this sound with my mouth...... AND IT SOUNDS BETTER!
How long on an average does it take to learn this scratch?

Hey bro this has been one of the hardest ones for to do, what advice do you have to loosen up the tension. In your fingers if so?
What’s the track name? Plz
Does anyone know the song which that 'R' sample is on by any chance or where to get just the sample ????
B-Side - Change The Beat has the original sample although you can get it on most ‘Scratch Battle’ records.
Is it harder to crab on a Numark M101 as opposed to a conroller ?
CHARLES SMITH fuck yeah! I'm great on my mixar duo. but my pt01 switch I suck lol
