Grand Master Flash Tutorial (1983)
For any new subject that is ever studied at school, there is going to be a wealth of boring rudimentary and fundamental things that have to be gone over first. This is the bane of most subjects, since half of the class already knows the subject material covered in class, the other half has no idea what is going on. Regardless of what your personal opinions are teaching methods, most of us do understand why it is important to always cover the basics first. For DJing, there really is no standard manual on how to get into the field or what to study first. Like any art of science, it can be broken down into different fields of study – each of them having their own set of issues to work on. If you want to get into Turntablism or beat juggling, it is harder to have a solid foundation of where to start or where to go. In modern times, the best way to get into it is to actually watch videos from when Turntablism first became a thing. The older cats who were doing it may have not been as technical – yet they give great insight into the mindset and thinking habits of how a DJ works. http://www.djtechtools.com/2014/09/20/routine-grand-master-flash-tutorial-1983/
