Despite producing countless 7” scratch records and being the host of the DMC World Championships online Portablist battle since its inception, turns out that Woody’s been saying the word ‘portablism’ wrong the whole time! Referring to the genre as ‘Poor-tablism’.
But let’s face it, if you choose ’scratch DJ’ as a career path, the odds are that it’s a pretty accurate description!
This record switches up the predictable format of the traditional 7” skip-proof’ scratch tool. Each track contains 1 scratch sound that repeats every rotation (making it fully skip-proof) with the other samples in the phrase repeated every 2 rotations (allowing for more variation in the samples). Side A is arranged at 100 bpm whilst Side B is arranged at 133 bpm, each side contains 6 different tracks and ends with a full scratch sentence.
The record combines freshly dug and unused samples with original vocal recordings from UK rap legend MC Mercury of the group Gunshot alongside DC-born MC and longtime collaborator BluRum 13.
