| | Beat juggling is exactly what it sounds like: manipulating, “juggling,” and combining the existing elements of two records to create a new rhythmic composition; a new “beat.” Basic beat juggling ideas include looping, fills, the breakdown, and the more difficult strobe and double-click. | | | After scratching, beat juggling is the second basic turntablist style of musical expression. |

| | CHECK: ONE-TWO |
| | If you want to be a deft beat juggler and you have the basic beat-juggling skills down (see “Turntablist Techniques: Vinyl Drummer,” October 2003), you need to learn some advanced methods to become a master of the beats. | | | One of the great ways to practice some of the crossfader skills required for beat juggling is to perform drills using the echo scratch (see “Turntablist Techniques: Could You Repeat That?” October 2002), which requires two copies of the same record. | | | This is a fairly simple juggle to learn once you grasp the concept, but it has an impressive sound. |

| | The common element of most house music is a 4/4 beat generated by a drum machine or other electronic means (such as a sampler), together with a solid (usually also electronically generated) bassline. | | | There are several techniques that can be applied by the disc jockey as a means to manipulate the prerecorded music. | | | Grasso also perfected slip-cueing, the technique of holding a record still while the turntable is revolving underneath, releasing it at the desired moment to create a sudden transition from the previous record. |

| | The term "turntablist" describes an individual who uses the turntables not just to play music, but to actually manipulate sounds and beats on a record, and create their own music or sounds to it. | | | You have mixing, scratching, beat juggling, dissing, and the turntable band. | | | These two terms were adopted by the International Turntablist Federation in 1996 to separate regular disc jockeys from those who actually create music using the turntables. |

Most of those songs are old school — the kind of shit that takes me back to the days when I would chill after school. |

| | Beneath Autumn Sky - Enki Du's Mono |
| | Obvious comparisons with DJ Shadow and Mowax can be made here, and without sounding insulting, this is a great album of background music beats. | | | The album was made with a combination of the modern, conventional method of cutting and pasting breaks using computers and samplers, and of Smaze's DIY technique of pause-button recording - this is literally when he plays a beat on a tape recorder, pressing the pause button on and off to achieve artificial beat-breaks. | | | Creep has an old-skool b-boy breaks feel about it, while still retaining the atmosphere and mood of previous tracks. |

| | Where a lot of turntablist's albums have become a predictable blur of scratches and beats, Kid Koala has managed to create a coherent, long-form album that is humourous, abstract and psychedelic. | | | The best example of this is the remix of Coldcut's "More Beats and Pieces" where the scratching so completely eviscerates any sense of flow that an anguished vocal warbles "Ohhh, I can't dance to this!" | | | And the mastering guy's saying 'What are these sounds, can we take them out?' I'd say 'Nah, nah that's what it sounds like.' If you were to do it live you would hear those exact same rumbling bass noises underneath it all. |
