Dubbed the first "scratch concept album," {^Wave Twisters} is the first full-length from the man considered to be the world's greatest turntablist -- {$DJ Q-Bert}. As a member of the Northern California DJ collective {$Invisibl Skratch Piklz}, innovation has always been the norm for {$Q-Bert}, a.k.a. {$Richard Quitevis}. Continuing to break new ground, his debut gives further evidence that the most talented record spinners have evolved into complete musicians. Song by song, the record explains a tale of an entire civilization that communicates only through the sounds of scratching. {$Q-Bert's} legendary hand graces 17 tracks, and fellow {$Piklz} {$Mix Master Mike}, {$Shortkut} and other guests come along for a wild ride where nothing is off limits. From standard breaks being sliced and diced to oblivion, to methodically cutting up a female orgasm at the album's metaphorical climax, it never gets boring. ~ Craig Robert Smith, All Music Guide
