Scratch Cafe is Bristol’s Turntablist Community get together. We’re hosting a scratch jam for all levels and ages on Wednesday 8th May (7-11pm) at the Cloak Cheltenham Road, Bristol. The focus of this event is on learning, community and DJ culture. Anyone can take part in the scratch jam. You just step up to the decks and freestyle. It’s an inclusive and supportive space so, even if you’re totally new to scratching, get up and do your thing!
It’s a great opportunity to network with other DJs and learn from some former DMC and other global competition winners. There will be scratch workshops and short DJ sets to break up the evening.
WHAT'S ON!
We have the full venue (both upstairs and downstairs) so we will be running:
- Beginner specific area down, where Jimi Needles and DJ Quest (former DMC champ) will be running beginner sessions. No matter where you are on your journey, you'll have the space to practice and the expert guidance to learn quickly
- Artist and record label showcases and talks will also be happening downstairs. Symatic from Cut and Paste Records will be showcasing new records on his label, as well as delivering a knowledge session
- Upstairs will remain an all levels scratch jam throughout the night (8 bar pass). Every so often we switch it up with a juggle session, beatboxers, b-boys, a scratch drumming jam, etc.
If you have one, bring down a scratch record you are used to using.
