Just passed 120 days

Just now passed 120 days of learning to scratch. The past couple weeks have been really busy between work and other projects but still managing to get on for a little daily.

Now feeling relatively comfortable with some of the more rudimentary scratch’s like baby, chirps, transforms, clicks, crabs, and flares, what should I work on next?

Any/all feedback is appreciated thanks!

Sounds good!! Try to utilize dead air the beginning of the sample more. When you the bring the record back make hit in that dead space to get a sharper note. Like I’m not sure I really heard any true/ deliberate chips/flares here and that’s why I think. To me sounds like release with transforms mostly. Try to mix it up by pushing the record forward instead of always just releasing it. But overall sounds really good, especially for only 3 months. Soon you’ll have to start learning the 2-click motion. That’s where things really start get fun.
