Refined basics - mentality given by
@enfoe - whips forward and back (orbited) , rotary transformers and Chicago styles skipless reverse learned from conversations with
@djfathertime (you were still with us)
Don't go fast, practice on slow beats. Fast beats are the double time of slow beats. don't scratch fast, scratch with meaning and say something. slow is fast, smooth is refined. Practice with control and emotion. Don't be a clone, be yourself. Be selective about what you throw.

Was doing this in my apartment in 2003 with enfoe. The backwards motions became popularized but the subconscious sound of an automatic whip is how I know you practiced with Chris and I've only truly heard it from myself and
@dopez1200 , the lineage and
@djnack with all of us making it feel like chirps.
The forwards whip and complete orbit is what we played with long ago but never discussed. I went away to do classified work and disappeared but the history is still with me out of respect for my generation
@felixfast4ward @enfoe @djnack
wanted to share because it's been with me for a while and I haven't seen it on video since 2003 or before. Hope to pass this on and put respect on who did this and who will do this going forward to respect them. just recognize it was them for all of you watching and applying it going forward (I'll be watching), I'm just the messenger who had it in my hands.
Thank you to
@swiftstyle for inviting us to #NAMM and
@losttonepros @lodusounds @danwhizle @jreignltp for hosting us and fighting off the bad bitch we never seen before!
@questosahn @djqbert thank you for speaking to me at DMC world in 2023 in SF to get me to pass my teachers methods to whoever will listen.
