Special Records?

Does anyone know where to get special turntablism records? Specifically, the ones with lots of samples and breaks on them? I just feel like messing around a bit.
I've also heard that you can get records with "locked grooves" in them, that just keep going round and round forever. That would be a neat thing to have, say with a kickdrum at 130, 135, 140, and 145.
anyone know where to get these?

a locked groove sounds mad

you mean acapellas or actual beats you want? or both

I have a bunch of those, but they are mostly breaks and hip hop. You won't find these for trance to easily.

any good record store can order you the sample records, i know dj rectangle put out a bunch awhile ago. as for the locked groove records, i have seen them @ the record stores here and there.. the ones i have seen just have a repeating sample on it, not like a kick or anything

DJ Rectangle are possibly the more famous scratch records, frequently used in DMC competition

If you wanna buy these things try somewhere like Chemical Records in the UK. Check one of the other threads around here, I think they are a fairly well rated shop.

I specifically want one with locked grooves at different BPMs.

Battle breakz and skratch records are always prominent in most U.S record shops.
www.turntablelab.com is a really good one..."true" turntablist/DJ site. Got videos, clothing, accessories, and hip hop records.
