Pioneering Turntable Maestro Celebrates New Album
By Dave Pehling • June 26, 2019
One of the Bay Area’s most formidable hip-hop turntable talents, DJ Quest celebrates the release of his latest album Biotronic at San Francisco’s Intersection for the Arts Saturday afternoon.
Turntablist extraordinaire DJ Quest (aka Carlos Aguilar) was born in El Salvador and moved to San Francisco in 1982. A lifelong music obsessive, Quest went from being a bedroom DJ who spun records at his middle school to a seasoned veteran of house parties and international scratch DJ competitions by 1990 while still in his teens. He co-founded the boundary-shredding Bay Area turntable crew the Bulletproof Scratch Hamsters along with DJ Cue and Eddie Def and helped create the first-ever battle record/DJ tool, Hamster Breaks.
