DJ Quest
Influenced by the hip-hop and electro styles of the early 80’s, DJ Quest has contributed to the DJ's art form by bringing a more aggressive scratch tactic to the battle scene. DJ Quest, featured in documentary SCRATCH, coined “Hamster Style,” a unique technique of reversing the set up of turntables into a mixer to facilitate new styles of scratching. Quest is one of the founding members of Bullet Proof Scratch Hamsters/Space Travelerz and a veteran of the DMC, New Music Seminar and countless other battles. DJ Quest has also expanded musical horizons by forming the San Francisco based experimental jazz-hip-hop trio, Livehuman. On the road, Quest has also accompanied Latyrx (Quannum Projects), The Bomb Hip-Hop DJ’s, Future Primitive Sound Session and Space Travelerz and Mike Patton’s Peeping Tom. Quest has also collaborated on recordings with: Dan “The Automator” (Handsome Boy Modeling School), Blackalicious, Rob Swift (Xecutioners), Z Man (One Block Radius), Sacred Hoop, Eddie K, Topper, DJ Zeph, DJ Q Bert (Do It Yourself vol. 2), Wide Hive collective Variable Unit and The DJ Project.
