Scratch DJ Academy - Los Angeles

"DJ's make the world go round." - Jam Master Jay

About Me


In early 2002, Rob Principe, the late Jam Master Jay from Run DMC (Jason Mizell) and Reg E. Gaines (author, Bring in Da Noise, Bring in Da Funk) created the Scratch DJ Academy® in New York, to educate amateur DJ's and enthusiasts by providing them with the necessary equipment and instruction to learn this popular art form. Scratch DJ Academy® is the only DJ school that features a copy written curriculum with pressed vinyl to match. For more information about our New York, Los Angeles or Miami locations, please visit www.scratch.com
