When I watch DJs/ Turntablist using well established records & copying the exact same techniques & routines from a range of well know influences while adding nothing new in a competitions or showcase, how does this evolve the artform, especially when no credit is ever given!?!

CMS 1989 manipulating Kraftwerk - Tour De France on the DMC stand after the 1989 NMS Battle For World Suremacy.

TAKE NOTE! Inspired by DJ Joe Cooley (NMS 1987) & DJ Pogo (DMC UK 1989), enjoy my manipulations, before the description BEAT JUGGLING” existed! by @cutmasterswift

CMS 1989 on Tour in Italy with DJ Pogo & MC Mello’ (R.I.P Robase!)

I always tried to make every performance unique! If I selected the same records, I wouldn’t necessarily manipulate them the same way! by @cutmasterswift

Back to the 80’s! It's 1989 I'm on the DMC Stand exhibiting more variations of a technique I pioneered & called the COPYCAT!For the unaware, this is the original name, you may know it as Strobing or Chasing!

DJ Pogo, DJ Billy Biznizz & I were the UK competitors @ the New Music Seminar, the original BATTLE FOR WORLD SUPREMACY! by @cutmasterswift

CMS in 2026 PUSHING THE BUTTON!!!
Today’s DJ technology allows us incredible possibilities, being empowered with this vast choice of features can either be enlightening or corrupt, when I push the BUTTON although it maybe presented technical is it “RHYTHMICAL & FUNKY!?!” Until it passes that criteria it isn’t ready for public consumption!

Doh, That Biggie Smalls juggle discription was meant for this Lordz Of The Underground Juggle!
Thank you all for the compliments & sharing. those who’s stance still choose to remain unconvinced, keep watching there's more to come!
In the video where I commented about biting, The beat dropping & cutting technique exhibited was copied from DJ Joe Cooley a west coast pioneer. The voice in the background altering me was DJ Pogo, who has equally been instrumental to evolution of Turntablism! It's disturbing that only Shortkut & Qbert have the knowledge to mention Joe Cooley his style & contributions should be common knowledge to everyone who consider themselves a Turntablist!
Thank you Joe Cooley, after hearing & later seeing what you did in the 1987 NMS Battles with Kraftwerk - Tour De France, you without doubt also influenced my trajectory on how to manipulated records! taken in London, United Kingdom by @cutmasterswift

I’ve been doing some deep digging lately & it’s not for Break Beats!
Disclosing one’s decades of legacy correctly is a challenge that even AI or google are yet to successfully complete! More important than facts, how does a person who wasn’t either older enough or present in the room now feels bold enough to have a voice as loud as the person who was because of their allegiance of social media followers? Whoever takes offence, yes I’m talking directly to YOU! I make no apologies for this post a campaign for the TRUTH! We all have a conscience and soul maybe these are the remaining humane elements we can’t lie too!?! by @cutmasterswift
