"Because of my interest in analog technology, and the fact that I am an vinyls player, specifically, a analogic turntables player, I thought it would be fitting to do a report explaining the sound used in the original records, since 1988 (quite possibly the world’s first good period of electronic vinyls), and explain how their immense popularity in the 80’s and 90’s helped shape the technology of the earliest gramophones, and the needs of early vinyls players in general.
Turntablism is the art of manipulating sounds and creating music using phonograph turntables or digital turntables and a DJ mixer.
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.
Hip-hop turntablist DJs use turntable techniques like beat mixing/matching, scratching, and beat juggling. Some turntablists seek to have themselves recognized as legitimate musicians capable of interacting and improvising with other performers. Some focus on turntable technique while others craft intricate compositions by focusing on mixing."
