News: DJ Scratch Launches The School of the Turntable Arts

"DJ Scratch, longtime DJ for EPMD and general turntable wizard, has launched a turntable school to help up and coming DJ's with the art of scratching.

The School of the Turntable Arts (SOTA) officially opened its doors earlier this year, to teach new DJ's the art of mixing and scratching.

"I started this school because I noticed that a lot of DJ’s don't know how to DJ," DJ Scratch told AllHipHop.com. “I am actually teaching the class. I will be teaching legendary skills that so many veteran DJ’s use to this day, but I also am giving credit where credit is due and teaching them history as well. Everyone needs to know who the pioneers are that perfected this art [turntabling].""
