Watch Skratch Bastid & Z-Trip Perform at DJ Jazzy Jeff’s Birthday Party


 
DJ Jazzy Jeff recently celebrated his 50th birthday and had some of his friends perform at the party. In the video clip above, watch Skratch Bastid and Z-Trip throw down a few classics during an improvised set which also included scratching. The video quality isn’t very good (it was filmed with an iPhone) but it’s always cool to see these guys rock together.

Skratch Bastid Performs Live at Evolve Festival


 
Back in July, Skratch Bastid performed at Canada’s Evolve Music Festival in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Now, a video excerpt of his set has been posted that shows the legendary turntablist scratching over A Tribe Called Quest’s classic “Steve Biko (Stir It Up)” and Classified’s “Anything Goes.” We wish the clip was longer but it’s dope to see nevertheless.
