DJ QBert 2014 DMC NYC Regional


Richard Quitevis, better known as DJ Qbert to fans throughout the world, has attracted attention since 1985 when audiences realized his skills on the turntables were beyond comprehension. Through years of creating, practice, and dedication, he developed the art of using the turntable as a musical instrument by inventing styles and creating unique systems of skratching.

Today, turntablism continues to advance and diversify. History established that Qbert, formerly a member of the legendary Invisibl Skratch Piklz (ISP), heralded a new era in the DJ/turntablist community, and helped raise the art to its new form. Heavily influenced by the styles of world-renowned jazz musician Miles Davis, famous electric guitarists Jimmy Hendrix and Les Paul, pianist Thelonious Monk, and innovative DJs throughout the world, Qbert interprets their compositions and creates sounds and styles that continue to generate a worldwide following.
