22 years later, this still gives me a shiver in my spine when he hits the imperial march.
I miss the 90s early 2ks
shout out to the natti, where I lived in 2001.
I come back to this about every 2 years.
He didn't tho
2023.11.26 - we're still picking our jaws up off the floor
What I love is the sportsmanship of the other dude. Like, legit props there, that's the face of a guy who knows he's beat and just wants to enjoy the show.
Well said 💯
Amen to that
That's the beauty of individual sports. Mogul skiing, skateboarders, climbers. .. They all appreciate the time involved to achieve that level.. And Give hugs and props accordingly ~~>
I am your fader
like what you did there!
im am u crossfader :D
@@patpatrykowski wut?
@Fatal Phenomenon "im am u" isn't funny
Mandela effect
That imperial march section is what mixing tournaments should be about and is what's missing a lot these days. Hyping the crowd with this kind of musical creativity is a lost art, and not enough DJs today play to the crowd, they sacrifice musicality for technical chops.
I went to the Japanese Technics final and it was great technically, but most of it was the sort of thing that only people who are crazy into turntablism could understand, not at all fun for the average spectator.
I love turntablism, what got me into DJing and music in general, on the flip side my GF can't stand beat juggling and repetitive cuts, so I can see where others wouldn't enjoy it.
@@lunardelusions2657 Repetition is death. Always evolve. 🤟🖖
It was all out of time
@@rosscop.coltrane2747 gimme creativity like this over perfect timing with no soul any day, most people in that crowd aren't turntableists, they just wanna be entertained. Its shit like this that gets views and people interested in the genre, it's never the best at the technical stuff that capture the imagination of the people.
"Now witness the power of this fully armed and operational turntable."
The don't be so proud of this syncopated rhythm you've constructed.
The more you tighten you grasp, tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers....
HIT IT!! ( Alternate reality, princess Leia drops stormtroopers epic fades into darkness, to haunt the death star .......)
RELEASE THE 1'S AND 2'S!!!
great comment they will feel the true power of the darkside
That Ill Beat came from the Death Star!!!
.........
.........
We can't repel firepower of that Funktitude!!!!
this is fucking incredible to watch. At that split second even the man he was against knew he had won. You don't see scratching like this anymore. Perfection.
Legend
He lost....judges gave to the other guy.
@@cees-gc8xt goddamn what a bummer...
@@cees-gc8xt What... all these years I was sure he would have won. How could he not? Oh well, he might have lost that battle, but he won the internet.

Round 1
Pirate Bam vs Skratch Bastid (Skratch Bastid wins in tie breaker)
Round 2
Kico vs Skratch Bastid (Skratch Bastid wins)
Round 3 Finals
Spryte 1 vs Skratch Bastid (Spryte 1 wins)
I came here after a guy played the imperial March on a coffee stirrer.
The Force has guided us along the same path, my friend.
same
There's also the legend of the toilet plunger.. Lot's of splashing.... May the force be with you
Me also .... we have a support group that meets every second Tuesday of the month. 😜😜😜😜🙊🙉🙈
Lol. Same.
The force is strong with this one! ✋😌
You know you've won the battle when 16 years later people are still watching your routine and no one remembers the name of the guy you battled or what he did.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN 16 YEARS?!?! ...god I'm old...
who was that 'Cartman' look a like guy? :p
@@shortieshorty1571 Few months more and this moment is 18 years old. Time flies, doesn't it?
@@deejaySilence that's Kico
TOTAL AND COMPLETE obliteration of his opponent - serious Lord Vader sh!t!
Kuddos to the other guy for being respectful observant and encouraging.
R/boneappletea
Until he heard that last 20 seconds and was like “ooooh shit ok I lost”
He’s lowkey hating
Friendly competition
If you wanna wear a Technics shirt, better be the best turntablist in the room 😂
"Is it possible to learn this power?"
"Not from a Jedi"
😂
Not from a regular Jedi. Only from a DJ - Disc Jedi.
According to the recent movies, you need to infected with some microbe. It evidently makes you really itchy, so you scratch like a demigod.
Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
Jdji
One of the most iconic moments in scratch DJ history
2020 and this is still awesome.
yessir
yes !
The Force is still strong with this one....
And I found this for 2 min
No it is not
Out of the dozens of times I've watched this, I never noticed the "always two there are, a master and an apprentice" soundbyte..nice foreshadowing!
ha, i just noticed that now and your comment too!
Best part about this sound byte, is that he points to himself as the master and to his opponent as the apprentice! Genius!
I never noticed the djs til I read your comment!
Never noticed either. At 0:40.
How'd you miss Yoda?!!
Love how the other Dj is just enjoying it.
fatKat 912 its that look of "that's me totally fucked but damn that's sick"...
@@bizzyfingers More like real recognizes real.
@@user-hk7xm5pu1c fat boy the other dj
7even
I love how he looks at the other dude RIGHT before the drop. He’s got his eyebrows raised like, “You’re about to see some serious shit!”
It's like he used heart of the cards and picked up the right set of cards to pull the final move.
Looking your prey in the eye before you kill it is some gnarly shit.
That was crazy. His opponent was loving it. Respect to that guy too
14, 15 years later n this is STILL EPIC👍. I like how the dj looks at his comp right b4 the real music hits 👌
Fernando Fuentes real music?
Hey man, how bout now? It’s been 20
For those who want to find the songs from his set:
First song: Phoenix Orion - A Disturbance In The Force
Second song: Buck 65 - The Centaur
Holy shit buck 65
Sample of Myka 9 - Can You Find The Level Of Difficulty In This - is the song between Phoenix Orion and Buck 65 ( the 30 seconds to go part)
You da maaaaaan !!
Looking for this 5 years ago. XD thank you, mate.
🔥🔥🔥
That first track is Disturbance in the Force by Phoenix Orion produced by DJ Hive. It covers Star Wars Episodes 1-3. He also released another track called Jedi Mastery on his debut album that covers episodes 4-6.
💥💥💥💥💥
Yes, that was a great album.
Need to check that out, thank you
Where can I find more of this stuff
This was the EVO moment #37 of scratch battles for me.
LOL I love Street Fighter 3 I'm sure only a few people knew what you were talking about
Looool Nice
LMFAO I couldn't agree more personally
When something niche crosses over into wider popular culture.
OMG hahahahaha
The reaction of a crowd is just purely amazing! That was a truly great breakdown! Like a K.O. punchline!
This was a great moment to witness live... i'm the host in the video clip, a.k.a the voice saying "30 seconds" and "TIME!"... Shout out to the homie Skratch Bastid!
you were great in 8 mile too
Wish I could have been there...
Kevin Beacham who was the fatt kid?
then why is the 30 seconds thing coming from the track and does the voice of the guy saying TIME sound so much different... keep your bs to your self ;)
Kevin Beachams nether regions
I don’t DJ and I’m a total metal head but this is on of my favourite videos of all time! The skill involved and the imagination to come up with it in the first place is amazing 🤘
20 years later and this still holds up as one of the greatest scratch battle finishers. Still crazy.
Did you ever wonder how r2d2 sounds when rapping? Well here you go 0:44
I never seen star wars. What do you mean?
@@Doggmatic_ there character named r2d2 and he sounds like that
Hype Beats this guy was the voice actor for r2d2
Damn, didn't even see your comment and thought the exact same thing haha. I think this set was well thought out!
Yes, and when translated: "I go by fuckin R2, niggas know my name, I'll put my probe in your ass and you'll go insane!"
Now THATS using the force......
+John Smith truth
I'm pretty sure he used his anger to win. Sith Lord*
Reposted.
Dark side force!
That's just right Audio Technica.
I remember hear this when it came out and was blown away. Had it as an MP3, took up 40Mb of my 128 Mb mp3 player because Limewire only had the "high quality" version.
I was 5yrs old when I Star Wars came out! I remember my Mom reading the opening scroll to me in the movie theater! This video made me remember that feeling again!
The imperial March at the end never gets old. Blows me away every time
My favourite video on TH-cam. Of all time. I cannot stop watching/listening to it.
i feel the same way!!!
MrChrisMudge I just found this gem and I've watched it like 5 times atleast
Same here
I thought the judges were creatively telling him how much time he had, turns out he put that record on just for that
Absolute boss move
Like I know how much time I got, it's all part of my jam
A few years later, NoCanDo would do it in the emcee battles too, lol.
@@AsiaDanceScene bruh thankyou for the comment, I totally forgot about this knee slapper
I was at this performance, standing 10 feet behind him (backstage). I lost my sh*t when Scratch pulled that. One of my most memorable turntablist culture moments!!
Vern Whitt II ah, real vinyl... They sure don't make DJs like this too often nowadays.
I was right behind Beachman ...I remember everyone getting up mouths open...was pretty fucking amazing
I have no idea who the other dude is....
You lucky Bastid.
An example of 100% Battle Preparation *Respect*: the sound of the lightsabers, the Yoda-speech (there are always two, a master and an apprentice and even pointing toward the other DJ!), the space guns, the ‘only 30-seconds to go’ and then the imperial March! 🔥🔥🔥
don't forget the r2d2 voice like scratching
@@liminal7853 excellent addition!!
I've dropped an Imperial March remix into my sets a couple times and the clubs went wild. I officially delegate that praise to this amazing performer.
sure it did. "the clubs" went wild. I believe you.
For all of my life from the moment I first saw this to the very last breath I take, my favorite moment is when he looks over at him like "I'm about to end your whole career." before playing the Imperial March. 1:44
You know you've won when your competitor is enjoying being beaten.
0:42 Bastid motions to himself "a master", then to his opponent "and an apprentice"
Nostalgia, my dad used to show me this so many times when I was younger and we played LEGO Star Wars the complete saga. We were such Star Wars geeks, I mean we still are so nothing has changed XD
I love that every couple of years the algorithm throws this back in my feed and it all comes pounding back at me. 2014 or 2024...this still slaps.
I want to learn this routine soooo bad, it’s definitely one of the greatest sets period.
His ability to adapt and improvise is totally unreal. Hand-eye coordination and everything added up, he's a fkn savant. Gold.
Its the little sideways look.....
I guess thats what owning someone feels like...the knockout blow..
The humble side way's stare
And 1:50 is what "I've just been owned" looks like.
we need to stop looking at this likes it's a competition, like it's a childish game.....what you're looking at is called respect
That little look goes, "sorry, bro!"
Credit to the other fella, though. He appreciated what he was seeing, all the way through, and then had the good grace to roll with it.
MCFC OK x
As soon as that guy realized the mix and knew he was beat,he stood there stoically and accepted it. I imagine afterwards that they shook hands and walked away having a laugh at the fun they both had. My hat is off to the competition for just enjoying the whole performance. And as for Scratch Bastid. ....wow. Incredible.
Vader: Impressive. Most impressive.
LA Cruz hellyeah. Never underestimate the power of the turntables.
And how many hear James Earl Jones when they read this?
Here's the thing. The track before had a Yoda sample saying there's always 2, the Master and the Apprentice. Then right before he tone played The Imperial March he got a look in his eye. Then he straight looked at his opponent as if he sensed he was going to win. Clearly he's a Sith Lord!
Indeed! The dark side is strong with this one. He most definitely (if he could) make that Imperial March cut longer 👍
I loved the look he gave to the other guy. He was all, oh damn I hear star wars in this.
It Piss
Where can I find the full battle?
CognitiveDissonance yes
Bruh I remember watching this when I was 14, I'm now 25 and still come back to watch this masterpiece. One of the coldest sets ever
This is STILL, one of the most impressive things I've ever seen and still a huge moment in hiphop.
I am a “real” musician. What these guys do has always amazed me. That takes skill. Nice video, thanks for sharing.
1:44 - "I'm about to end your whole career."
Underrated comment.
Diabetes beat you to it
Lol he actually lost this battle.
@@midasfgm No he didn't
Just checked and this is my 3rd comment on this track
I've been listening to hip hop and have been in love with scratching since 1986 I am now 48 and I haven't been so in awe of anything in this genre, this is just pure quality and genius. To make the judges react and also the opponent like this just shows how amazing this truly is. I have followed him for years and he is my 3rd fav DJ, no 1 terminator X, no 2 Erik B and the man himself in 3rd. Man it just shows that hip hop brings all people together and overrides any race issues, just a passion for the different arts that hip hop brings to the table like graffiti, break dancing, battle raps, the apparel and most importantly how it puts people from all ranges of society together and also brings wealth to deprived areas and gives people a way out of poverty. Love my hip hop. I have learnt things from rappers like words I have never heard before and I have had to look them up which has broadened my vocabulary
10 years later still come back to see him look at the dude right before he kills it
0:43 R2-D2 spittin' some sick bars before The Imperial March comes on.
🤣🤣
@@Travis_22 those are r2d2s voice clips lol
The fast stare right before starting the Imperial March, like saying: Watch this!
I watch this every so often and it still is awesome as the first time.
The second part still gives me goosebumps. Remember seeing this for the first time in like 2006, was the coolest thing I've ever heard.
I remember this like it was yesterday. Every May 4th I just have to post it to all my SM. I remember how good the dude he was batllin' was too, he had it won....then the death march. Scratch Bastid is funny as hell too. Great sense of humor, I remember one year at Scribble he wore a Joe Dirt wig, dumpin' cans of heineken down his face, then proceded to kill it. Classic.
That sounds like the dopest set I've ever heard of in my life.
Man even after all these years of coming back to this video from time to time i will never forget the expressions on the guy with the technics t-shirt even from the start!
I dont care what anyone says. This is the toppest of the top shelf that there has ever been in terms of creativity.
i come here again and again to listen to this, it just puts a smile on my face:)
Can't get enough of that probly one of the smartest mix I've ever heard
people who disliked this are aspiring scratch artists with a deep seeded bitterness towards the master of scratch
Still amazed by this in 2022.
🙏🙏🙏
Almost 20 yrs ago and one of the best finishes to a DJ battle I've ever seen.
He's doing this with no headphones holy ship.
No need, he had the vinyls marked, aka "cue".
He had the vinyls marked and cued. Like a DJ should.
And he has a speaker under the table on both sides shooting the sound towards him...
@@Ironman829 Monitors coming in clutch once again.
@@SeanLaMontagne nice one XD
This shit never gets old to me.
1:43 he's like "now watch this motherfucker"
th-cam.com/video/csOJesH_p-8/w-d-xo.html
2022. This will never get old. The foreshadowing is perfect. This is the definition of perfect.
Dude the other guy was like -_- then O_O
then he was like ~(^..)
Bruh there are so many comments from different years
A beat juggle so legendary people are still appreciating this shit almost 20 years later. He might as well change is DJ name to Darth Fader.
Cause it transcends time and space my dude.
Cause this art is timeless.
Appreciated by people of different age.
Wait for 2045. Comment section will be more interesting.
JAJAJA THATS CUZ HE IS A F*CK*NG LEGEND
When scratch was ACTUALLY SCRATCH. Cheers
And the music back then SO GOOD. Everyone was just enjoying the music and having a good time. Life was better then.
I remember just being a kid my dad would always watch these battles. Sadly he has passed away and now I'm the one watching these battles
I remember seeing this back in the day... still gives me chills, such a dope set.
the best example of skrach bastid's talent! i've been watching this vid since it first appeared on youtube; classic
From 11 years this video is on TH-cam.. people are still watching at this masterpiece. Music and Star Wars, what else.
The look on his opponents face when he started popping off was just like "I'm screwed"
The second where DJ Kico (Technics t-shirt) finally realized what was happening and started smiling is pretty priceless. He even turns around to Spryte (in the white necklace) and gives him the, "Yeah, this kid is nice" look.
He got his ass owned....
The guys are very respectful to each other as they all know what it took to be there!
"I find your lack of bass disturbing."
2020 and this is still awesome.
🤣
The nod of recognition from the guy on the right is quite revealing. It's quite an amazing performance, and it's almost a quarter of a century old. It's crazy!
I love how the guy in the Technics shirt just packs it up after the first scratch. He’s like f*ck it. I’m done. Time to pack my needles.
think we just witnessed a murder....this shit is immortal for real.
What a flashback! Two renowned DJs battling it out, but the Bastid reigned supreme. I never slept on Kico either, as he was nasty in his own right. And I spy Spryte behind him too.
Renowned?
I watch this video multiple times throughout the years, and it continues to pop up in my recommended and i watch it every time
He’s still going strong. Did a great funk soul session from his home.
His opponent as soon as the march started: "oh man, I'm so screwed"
I am still the apprentice.....writing this in 2022...... been mixing like a pro for years!!!..... but I can't come close to this level!!!!
Still practicing with the vinyl.
Just enjoy......
“there’s always two Jedi, a master and apprentice”😂
Give the contestant props for being respectful, even cheering him on. Fucking dope ending thou!!
1:44 when he looks at the other guy right quick. "Game over"
It was the first ever recorded "I'm bout to end this man's whole career."
Legit one of the best videos In TH-cam! I catch myself coming back here no matter how many days it’s been or how many times I seen it! This shit is priceless
11 million views and counting.
The best ever to do it.
An absolute timeless classic.
The sideways glance…..
The master… and the apprentice.
Skratch you are the very greatest.
When you spin those wheels of steel……
A masterpiece.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The respect shown at the end was fantastic!
i went to this show, dope memories it was summer after i graduated high school. wish they still did skribble jams 🔥
This is huge. He knew it. When it happened they knew it....Im still blown away.
Still blown away too.... Have watched this clip of S.B. at least 25 times!
Im glad i was born in this Gen. The raw talent is amazing man
Every time YT is suggesting this video I watch it
At 1:45 he gives him the look, 5 seconds later the other guy knew
And with that skratch Bastid immortalized himself
this still the best thing i ever seen scratch wise
I haven't watched this since the first time I saw it hella years ago. I am just now learning and getting comfortable with DJing. Not know this was Skratch or who he was the first time, I am not surprised. I am glad I was able to witness your skills live at NAMM earlier this year and I am glad to be to be reacquainted with this amazing set!
