Jack Batemaster's definitions

hydroplane

A type of DJ scratch that uses a hand to vibrate the vinyl by creating fluttering friction which makes the speed of the record jump slower very quickly.

You have to have sticky fingers to perform the hydroplane, otherwise it will just slow the record down.

The Lords of Acid played a few of their older New Beat tracks, at the party.
