DJ Qbert (Richard Quitevis) is one of the most technically proficient hip-hop DJs to emerge from the Bay Area, a world champion who famously had to sit out competitions to give others a chance. He recently released Turntable TV DX, a DVD compilation of several years' worth of his VHS series, Turntable TV. The show features fellow mixmaster colleagues sharing tips and tricks as well as a curious assortment of hand puppets displaying the general wackiness that is often associated with this legendary homegrown talent.
