D'Arcangelo, Gideon. Hamamatsu: NIME, This essay outlines a framework for understanding new musical compositions and performances that utilize pre-existing sound recordings. In attempting to articulate why musicians are increasingly using sound recordings in their creative work, the author calls for and shows examples of new performance tools that enable the dynamic use of pre-recorded music such as record scratching and sampling.
By using two variable speed turntables connected by a mixer, hip hop DJ began blending recording songs in seamless continuity. Blending and mixing gave way to scratching, or backspinning a record in rhythm. This gave DJs a way to put more of their own musical selves into the playback, featuring their rhythmic skills. Grand Wizzard Theodore is attributed with inventing scratching in Similar practices emerged concurrently in the New York art world around the same time in the work of conceptual artist Christian Marclay.

Use a toothpick to ease into the crack and allow time for it to seep in thoroughly. If there are multiple scratches, apply glue to the entire record as it spins on your turntable. He has the control of the records, the amps and the speakers. He becomes the soul of the party. In order to map out the intriguing evolution of hip-hop and the associated culture, The Birth of Hip Hop has been designed to be the first ever original series that will present true stories about all the art forms that originated from the marginalized subcultures.
