 Movie Habit: Review of Scratch (2002), *** 1/2
Scratch is a great documentary about the birth of a new musical instrument — the turntable.
Scratch is a great documentary about the birth of a new musical instrument.
It’s hard to listen to the commentary and not be excited about the movie.

 mtv.com - News - The Roots' Scratch Beatboxes Solo Album
Scratch learned how to imitate the music he listened to by recording it off the radio.
Scratch appears on Pink's Missundaztood and both of Musiq's albums.
They both possess the uncanny ability to reproduce the sounds a DJ would make without using any electrical equipment (or records, for that matter) and both put out solo albums showcasing that talent.

 The Movie Chicks - Review - Scratch
A form of music that started as "scratching" on party tracks, but now has evolved into a new art form - music by "turntablists" who are stepping out center stage and showing their talents.
The movie covers all different arenas, from the guys who compete in international DJ battles to the guys digging in old record houses looking for that lost beat.
I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this movie - the turntablists, the music, and the amazing ability that these guys (and girl) have.

 MMI Movie Review: Scratch
Divided into chapters, "Scratch" covers the DJ's early history in the discos of the seventies and eighties, through the rise of the MC's and vocalists who used the DJ's turntable sound as back-up, and then emergence of the DJ on their own, putting the spotlight on expressing their own musical voice.
Part music archeologists, part visionary musicians, these DJ's play with audio and other peoples music in ways the original artists never imagined, creating music that is fresh and new.
While "Scratch" is a solid documentary, that provides an insightful introduction to this underground music movement, diehard fans of DJ-music are bound to feel that the film leaves out a lot.

 Scratch Movie: Scratch DVD is available from Bestprices.com
Deejaying (and scratching) has now become a worldwide phenomenon and lucrative profession which can be attributed to DJ Qbert, whose masterful stylings enabled deejays to step out from behind the shadow of rappers and into a spotlight of their very own.
The title, SCRATCH, refers to a technique that was initially used to keep one particular section of a song running endlessly as other songs are played simultaneously.
Modern luminaries such as DJ Shadow, MixMasterMike (of the Beastie Boys), DJ Qbert, Rob Swift, and DJ Swamp are interviewed alongside living legends like Afrika Bambaataa, Jazzy Jay, and Grand Mixer DXT, in order to paint a broad, comprehensive picture of how deejaying has evolved over the years.

 Scratch
Another black DJ, living in one of the boroughs of New York with his mother claims, "If you practice for one year and give up everything-wine, women-you'll be the best at what you do." These disciples teach about life as well as music.
I loved the music and the people in this movie-- passionate and crazed about what they do.
He talks about being out with a girlfriend and hearing this new sound in a club, buying her two drinks and then ignoring her so he could concentrate solely on the music, "This is music I've been waiting all my life to hear and didn't know it."

 Movie Review - Scratch: All the Way Live - eFilmCritic
Scratching was done by the DJs, which led to MCs and rap artists, who would create rhymes to lay on top of the work being done by the DJs.
One question that goes unanswered, however, is how the scratching movement led to the hip-hop and rap of the 2000s.
After that, it's a wonderland for fans of DJs and their fancy turntable-scratching acrobatics; it will no doubt quickly lose appeal for casual observers who aren't interested in how Mix Master Mike learned to scratch, for example.

Taking over 20 years of dense musical history — spanning the birth of the "scratch" to the continuously evolving "turntablist" subculture — and compressing it into an hour and a half proved to be a hurdle that took months to overcome.
Pray looks back, with Afrika Bambaataa and GrandWizzard Theodore (the inventor of the "scratch"), and looks ahead with those, like DJ Shadow and Z-Trip, who are on the forefront.
Throughout the film, almost every DJ interviewed cites the live performance of "Rockit" on the 1984 Grammy Awards show as a turning point in their musical lives.

 ONJava.com: Making Media from Scratch, Part 1
You may have noticed in the diagrams above that our hypothetical movie contains not just an audio and a video track, but also a "text track." This is exactly what it sounds like: a time-based collection of text, commonly used for providing captions to QuickTime movies.
A track contains metadata (creation and modification time, playback quality), exactly one media object, and an edit list describing which parts of the media are to be used.
Movies, tracks, and media all have their own time scale, which is the number of time units that pass in one second.

 www.delawareonline.com : ENTERTAINMENT : Movie review : Scratch
You meet old-school icons Afrika Bambaataa and Grandwizzard Theodore, who's generally credited with inventing "scratching" (rubbing a record back and forth to produce distinctive sounds as the needle scratches it).
Executive-produced by Allen and Albert Hughes ("Menace II Society," "Fresh") and directed and edited by Doug Pray (who did 1996's "Hype!" about the rise and fall of Seattle's grunge scene), the film blends interviews with performance clips from competitions such as the DMC U.S. Finals, jam sessions in the studio and club dates.
Brimming with talent and energy, "Scratch" is a music documentary that should appeal to more than just hard-core hip-hop fans.

If you don't think "turntablism" is a valid musical expression, you will after this movie.
They do have a quick segment on Japanese DJ Krush who creates beautiful grooves using slow hiphop rhythms with traditional Japanese music.
The only complaints I have about this movie is its lack of female DJ's (the movie has one, and she learned from her boyfriend and works with him) even though there are thousands, and the lack of representation of DJ culture beyond hiphop (the use of DJs with Portishead and other downtempo groups).

 Scratch Movie Review
A must-see for anyone who wants to get a better realization of how the birth of this style of music came to such creative heights for musicians to express themselves by and for the listeners to relate to.
Scratch is such an informative look at how these artists (both familiar and unfamiliar) came into their own skin and helped create a style of music that, without them, would not have been utilized and so important in the world where the musician is the music of our soul.
Of course, I'm not that unaware of the artistic accomplishments and influences that scratching has had on the musical society--especially noted is Herbie Handcock's "Rockit." I remember when that song first came out.

John has also pioneered his own notation system for transcribing turntable scratches in the same way musical notes are used to describe melodies on traditional instruments (soon, DJ's may be able to sightread and play recognizable scratch patterns).
Serving as both an inspiration and key advisor to "Scratch", John Carluccio is well-known and respected throughout the DJ community as the director and editor of "Battle Sounds" a comprehensive compilation of footage he shot over a number of years which is available for purchase by visiting
The Battle sounds documentry is also a must for everyone out there, weather you have a small amount of intrest in turntablism or a huge amount it is a must see film!!

 Scratch (2001/II)
I was never big into "scratching" but the film does a wonderful job of keeping elementary for those who know little, and infusing in-jokes for those who are experts themselves in this area.
Mix Master Mike from the Beastie Boys is in this film, but it wasn't until after the film that I could name several heavy hitters in the industry (DJ Shadow, Q- Bert, etc).
I have seen this movie and would like to comment on it

Robert and I chat casually as he sets up his tape recorder and tests the equipment.
When I take a seat to begin signing, the first two men in line are a pair of film producers who say what fans they are of the book and that they are sending an offer to my agent to option the movie rights.
Robert arrives with his yellow lab Rosie, who lies at my feet, indicating with her nose where I should scratch her.
