You may remember earlier this year Short-e was commissioned by the BBC to record scratching for the BBC 1 TV show “Walk On The Wildside”.
Short-e recorded the process of recording the cuts on video so you can see exactly what went on.
Short-e freestyled mostly then went back over any mistakes and dropped in new cuts. This video shows 1 take. 3 takes were recorded for each track and then the best sent to the BBC so they could chop it up how they wanted.
The instrumental backing track (Wiley – Wearing my Rolex) was cleared internally for use by the BBC for royalties etc.
Watch out for more behind the scenes footage of the scratching badgers in the studio!
Happy Scratching!
