Hip-Hop Turntablism, Creativity and Collaboration - Sophy Smith - Bog

This is the first book to explore the creative and collaborative processes of groups of DJs working together as hip-hop turntable teams. Focusing on a variety of subjects - from the history of turntable experimentation and the development of innovative sound manipulation techniques, to turntable team formation, collective creation and an analysis of team routines - the book examines how turntable teams have developed new ways of composing music, and defines characteristics of team routines in both the process and the final artistic product.
