Turntablist transcription methodology
Turntablist Transcription Methodology, or TTM, is a notation system for scratching and turntablism designed by John Carluccio, a Brooklyn-based artist best known for the Battlesounds documentary film on turntablism, Ethan Imboden and Raymond Pirtle. It is intended to be an intuitive graphic representation of the movement of records whilst performing with the turntable, and was originally documented in a booklet form for distribution.
The system has achieved acclaim from a number of recognisable turntablists, and has been accepted as possibly the best form of transcribing turntablist music. However it has not seen many compositions released in written format as is the project's intention - only the future will reveal the usage of TTM for djing practices.
