Richard Quitevis (born October 7, 1969) known by his stage name DJ Qbert or Qbert, is a  and composer. Early life

Growing up in 's  on Moscow Street, he graduated from  and in 1987 from . Qbert started playing with  at the age of 15, although he got his first  turntable as a toddler. He was influenced by the street performers and graffiti artists of the local hip hop community in the mid-1980s. It was at Balboa's school cafeteria that he first met  in a DJ battle; the two have been good friends ever since.

Career

Qbert started his musical career in a group called FM20 with Mix Master Mike and DJ Apollo in 1990. In  when playing a show,  saw them and invited them to join the . They accepted the offer to join the crew. Going by the name Rock Steady DJs, they then proceeded to take the 1992 (DMC) world title. Qbert was also one of the founding members of the band . Although there were other turntablist crews before the Invisibl Skratch Piklz, the Skratch Piklz were the first to apply the band concept to , layering drums, basslines, and scratch solos on top of each other.

Qbert, along with other Skratch Piklz, created a series of videos entitled Turntable TV. Now out of print, the first 5 episodes were released on VHS and contained demonstrations, showcases, skits, and other DJ related content.

Qbert's solo efforts include 1994's , and 1998's . The latter album was created mainly with samplers and beat machines versus the turntable, and later turned into an animated feature of the same title. 2001's  movie was somewhat unusual in that the animators and digital artists had to invent images and movements to the pre-recorded music, as opposed to the other way around (although not unprecedented; Disney's  was made the same way).

More recently, he has worked with Vestax to develop the QFO, an all-in-one scratching instrument. The QFO combines a turntable with a mixer's crossfader. In 2006, he introduced the Qbert turntable cartridge, a model put out by Ortofon.
