Qbert launches online Skratch University
You gotta appreciate how Qbert has assumed the role of Splinter in the turntablism community. The ultimate sensei (and once a mentor to yours truly), Q has already released multiple instructional DVD’s and today he took it one step further, opening a virtual DJ school at www.qbertskratchuniversity.com. Check the press release:
The long awaited Skratch University opens its doors today to the enthusiasm of Skratch DJs worldwide. QSU offers DJs a unique place to hang out, cut & build with each other. Qbert has posted his entire video curriculum online, from the most basic skratching techniques to advanced battle tactics.
QSU students watch the lessons & can send Qbert a video assignment for him & his crew to critique. Students will receive either a written or video response with notes on technique and style.
With these unique “Master Classes” accessible to all QSU students, the entire skratch community benefits from having access to a True Master. The QSU is the first of its kind AND the first university where cutting is required.
