SCRATCH explores the world of the hip-hop DJ: from the birth of hip-hop, when pioneering DJ's began extending breaks on their party records (which helped inspire break dancing and rap), to the invention of scratching and "beat-juggling" vinyl, to its more recent explosion as a musical movement called "turntablism.” It’s a story of underdogs and virtuosos who have radically changed the way we hear and create music.

“…An amazing, life-affirming movie."
— Glenn Kenny, PREMIERE MAGAZINE
