It's reasonable, but I've seen much better. There are too
many times where he doesn't quite get the second record back
in time. Rob Swift, for examples, is a lot better.

I'm also vastly more impressed by beat juggling slower stuff
(a lot harder to conceal mistakes and when you syncopate,
it's more obviously intentional).

It's not bad at all, but there are a lot more talented
'tabilists than him.

I've just been playing with 2 copies of "DIRTSTYLE RECORDS
LIMITED EDITION RARE HARD TO FIND DIRTSTYLE " on mine.
Calling a record like a Kazaa DL is sheer genius.

Couldn't find any stuff of Rob Swift juggling online, but
the style I'm talking about, which I consider core to beat
juggling, is this slow, syncopated rhythm that makes you
anticipate the beat by it being slightly late, but which
still maintains a constant rhythm you can nod your head to.
Here's a clip of DJ Babu doing this sort of juggling.
Shortee (the only female 'tabilist I rate) is good at that
style of juggling too.

Faster stuff has it's place too this is a decent
example.

BTW that clip that was originally posted isn't prefuse 73,
it's just a bloke who I won't name (as it's a shitty way to
get exposure) using his tracks.

I like Q-Bert's DIY scratching (1) for "how to scratch" and
the Shure Turntabilism 101 is really good for "how to
juggle". It's primarily a "How to" one, but unlike the Qbert
video, there's enough good scenes of people using the
techniques and discussion of the music theory/what you're
trying to do with juggling that even if you just like
scratch videos (rather than want to learn) it's worth
getting.

Just for entertainment, "Scratch" the movie and old DMC
routines are great. I actually prefer watching team ones as
they can actually really make something that sounds nothing
like the original. D-Styles - The Bstard language Tour is
great for "turntable music", where musicality and
composition are given vastly more attention rather than just
doing party tricks. Consequently, it's brilliant and a lot
of people don't even realise the music they're hearing is
done on several turntables, until you tell them.

Kentaro was really good. Wasn't he the chap who didn't even
bother coming back the next year (apart from as a judge) to
defend his title as it was too much stress?

You know ceri, usually I aggree with you, but I can't see
what you see wrong in this video. It is medium/advanced
juggling, and it is done very well. I watched that babu
video, and yes, he certainly did do a lot of syncopation and
it was slow, but there were also many mistakes that I
caught. This guy wasn't just juggling beats, he was making
new sounds and melodies, and the beat fell at the right
point every time.

The man is so old school, that even on a mixer like the 07
that has a fader switch, he prefers to just use the mixer
the wrong way round for hamster style scratches.

Taxi: Yes, I agree the Babu clip wasn't 100% flawless. Part
of the reason I was gutted I couldn't find one of Rob Swift
doing it is that he often does do it slowly like that, but
absolutely perfectly (which aside from my liking the sound
of more, is techincally a lot harder to do than the Prefuse
clip). I suppose I adhere to the sort of school of thought
of Q-bert & Co.'s "Ostrich Music"; recognition that it's
much harder to do turntable music perfectly in time when
it's done slower, even if to the casual observer (not that
I'm suggesting that's what you are!) the faster stuff
"looks" more impressive.

I think part of the reason I don't like battles and the
visual aspect of turntabilism is that a lot of the stuff
that isn't too hard (and even I can do) looks more
impressive than some of the harder things. For example,
crabbing a scribble isn't very difficult, but generally gets
a better crowd response than a rhythmically perfect chirp,
because it looks/sounds harder to do.
