The greatest fucking DJ Of All Time. Shits on anyone else you can think of!!!!!!!!!!!

DJ Shinobi [RA] · 12-14-2006, 12:35 AM

the greatest skratch dj of all time is DJ Qbert. He's a flip from the bay area and his been dj'n for years. Dude won the DMC championship like 3 times, nobody gave him comp so they asked him to stop competing and become a judge. dude is seriously a god among men. I think gin8u said that Eric B was better than him which is like saying Young Dro is better MC than rakim. seriously, its that big of a fucking gap. enjoy fuckers.

Shit my sound won't play

ps: Young Dro?

bayAreaSLAP · 12-14-2006, 02:10 AM

co-FUCKIN-sign.. Qbert is a god amongst kids when it comes to scratching. Qbert lived about a block away from me when I lived in SF a couple years ago. I've been to his house a couple times before and seen him on a weekly basis at Ameoba in SF.

Nokster · 12-14-2006, 02:23 AM

lol... those 2 white dudes bobbin their domes was hilarious

so is Qbert the Jesus Christ of Turntabl-anity???

but duke is crazy...

bayAreaSLAP · 12-14-2006, 04:38 AM

/\ /\ you like that, bobbin their heads OFF rhythm

Qbert is definitely the dopest. Watch those DMC tournaments and other battles, so many people copy his style. It's also funny how some people will immitate an act of Qbert's and try to flip it.

Nick_Kase · 12-14-2006, 04:50 AM

... now i usually dont argue with people, cuz its your opinion. but have u honestly ever watched em all skratch? X-ecutioners suck dick, Roc Raida does tricks, that dnt even sound good. Flash is an innovator and all but doesnt deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Q. and like i said jazzy does own but he aint on Q's level. But feel free to argue.

Pennsylvania KING · 12-16-2006, 02:33 PM

but you hyping up a person who we cant even hear

MC Mime>>>>>>>>>Rakim

ya dig!?

mouad · 12-29-2006, 11:02 AM

Here ya go fuckers...this is DJ Swamp's Death Mix.... Swamp won the DMC in 96, was Beck's DJ for four years, and does all the scratching for the Crystal Method... Cool as fuck too.....

Here is a video of the performance at the DMC in 96.

Swamp began mastering his DJ skills more than 15 years ago. In 1996, his rookie year, he took the title of USA DMC CHAMPION. Being true to his nature in an arena that was predominantly influenced by a very hip hop-esque culture, Swamp stepped up to the decks looking like some kind of junky punk. He was well received by the audience despite his counter-culture appearance because he exhibited skills that defied perception and already possessed a stage presence that many of his contemporaries still lacked. The finale came when he closed his set by freakin' Deep Purple's 'Smoke on the Water' and then smashing his records.

Notorious for mischief, while he's on the turntables his shows are highly anticipated by those who know that they can expect to see something spectacular.

A fan comments:
"DJ Swamp is unquestionably one of my favorite musicians. His talent is simply undeniable.
What I love is how each and every time he has put on a performance, whoever I brought with me that night became an instant fan. Literally, I'd compare it to the spreading of a disease [that has] no cure. It is always sensational to watch him." (Thank you, Jack)

Although he's a hip-hop/d&b artist, his demeanor and appearance are closer to that of a metal head. He has been referred to as "the Sid Vicious of the DJ's", and has been known to have violent on-stage fits more characteristic of a rock star than of a hip-hop turntablist. While it's easy to compare him to rock/punk legends, in the world of DJ's he stands alone. Roguish behaviors such as: breaking his records then cutting himself with the fragmented remains; spitting fire; and performing cunnilingus on diamond-tipped phonograph needles really only provides the frame work to showcase what those that are in the 'know' recognize as extraordinary turntable skills. Breakbeats, scratching, juggling, and mutilating LPs and vinyl without losing the beat are all a part of a day at the 'office' for Swamp. Sometimes they end with a trip to the hospital: "I had to go to the hospital in Phoenix recently with second-degree burns," Swamp said from his publicist's office in New York. "I lit my hand on fire and then blew fire on it and basically became a blow torch. I don't use fire retardant or anything because this is low budget. Dude, I'm just a fire retard."

For four years DJ swamp toured as a member of beck's band. Immediately following his decision to depart from the band, swamp released his solo debut album, 'never is now' and toured to back the release. His decision to go out on his own gave him just the independence that he was looking for and opened up the avenue to self-expression that both he and the fans were seeking.

Contrary to how he flows when rhyming (eg. "How can I dis you, I've never even heard of you"-lyrics from 'Worship the Robot'), he expresses a certain sense of reverence when reflecting on the path he's traveled. When considering how he's managed to maintain critical mass his response is typically "I'm the luckiest person you'll ever meet. Something's always popping up. I'm just in the right place at the right time." Statements like that shouldn't suggest that he hasn't worked hard or employed incredible ingenuity to get where he is. He procured the spot with Beck by posing as a reporter to pass off his demo in person.

Swamp says that he draws off of his environment and a ten year affinity with a nameless muse for inspiration. He observes "what's going on" and converts his impressions into his art. His musical influences range from hip hop, to metal, punk, industrial and anything in between.

DJ Swamp has graced the pages of: Rolling Stone, Spin, Subculture, Raygun, Mean, DJ Times, Keyboard, Rap Sheet, Mixer, Rap Pages, The LA Times, and Urb.

Urb magazine says "Witnessing Swamp torture the 1200's is like watching a magic show."
