Skratch Bastid: James Brown "I Got You (I Feel Good)" routine - 110%

As a promotion for his latest mixtape, 110%, Canadian dj Skratch Bastid recently put out the above video from a live performance of one of his scratch routines cutting up the classic James Brown track I Feel Good. Some points must be deducted for using Serato instead of real vinyl, but nevertheless a pretty tremendous display of dj skills. You can stream and download 110% for free over at his mixcloud page.

Scribble Jam enthusiasts may remember Skratch Bastid from his legendary (among dj nerds, anyway) battle in 2001, where he flipped a sample from Buck 65's Centaur into a recreation of the Star Wars' Death March. Peep:
