Turntablism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The word 'turntablist' was coined in 1995 by DJ Babu [ 2 ] to describe the difference between a DJ who just plays records, and one who performs by touching and moving the records, stylus and mixer to manipulate sound. The new term coincided with a resurgence of the 'art' of hip hop style DJ-ing in the 1990s. John Oswald described the art: "A phonograph in the hands of a 'hiphop/scratch' artist who plays a record like an electronic washboard with a phonographic needle as a plectrum , produces sounds which are unique and not reproduced—the record player becomes a musical instrument." [ 3 ]
Trip hop (or trip-hop ) is a music genre consisting of downtempo electronic music which originated in the early 1990s in the UK , especially Bristol . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trip_hop
