    In this sample scratch tutorial from QSU (qbertskratchuni...), DJ Qbert breaks down the secret to the infamous Boomerang Scratch, which was first pioneered by the great innovator DJ Flare. As you'll see, the boomerang is a continuous version of the Aquaman Scratch.
    Do the aquaman and keep it consistent: forward back forward, backward forward backward, counting 1, 2, 3 along. Swing back and forth along that 1, 2, 3 count. Once you can do that 1, 2, 3 swinging back and forth evenly, try to do multiple reps of that set without a pause in between each set. The elimination of the pause doesn't have to happen immediately. Of course, like practicing all other musical instruments, you build up on it. You start with long pauses in between, then speed up the pause each time. With a little bit of patience, you will soon be doing the Boomerang Scratch continuously.
    This lesson is only a portion of what can be available to you on Qbert Skratch University. Find out more at artistworks.com...

    Two click flare and reverse og flare really helped learning these first even though they are open fader scratches. The aquaman scratch just joins them up nicely! Get good at two clicks! It's a must

    Learning the 2 click flare first helps with the fader hand. Then instead of doing an orbit move the record forwards backward and forwards again for first half them mirror the second half

  • @barrywatts803

    This has helped to much!! Just could not make this scratch sound good or even do it without the pause. But after watching this it's starting to come together! Yes!

    Been following Qbert since my buddy showed me the "do it yourself skratching" DVD and wavetwisters. I was a sheltered kid who didn't know about Q until after Y2K. I got ripped off lol.
    I'm trying to learn this where you start on the low notes. It's not easy. But I almost have it down.

      if you start it with the fader closed it becomes a delayed flare or something like that. this is the right way to boomerang

    • @ArtistWorksInc
      @ArtistWorksInc  Před 10 lety +5

      no, that'd be a clover tear you just described. Boomerang is a "1-2-3, 1-2-3" count making 6 notes in total

      Mike Costa he explained that it is a variation of the aquaman...the difference is that you don't make a definite pause, you swing without pausing to make it more fluid and rhythmic. It's like 1 2 swing 3 1 2 swing 3 instead of 123 pause 123 pause
