Melo-D takes us through the intermediate, “Tear Scratch.” This technique requires a DJ to make three motions with the arm: one move forward, and two motions back. The additional motion while moving the record back creates a different sonic character than the “Baby Scratch.” Though this scratch is a lot more challenging to keep on-beat, using the fundamentals of controlling distance by using your visual marker will help you make sure your cuts stay on beat.
