ok, im not tryin to diss zabiela i was half sarcastic on the 'eat your heart out' comment. i was simply tryin show some newbs in the scene some artists' scratching ability and how they really create a musical sound using a non musical sample ie. acapellas. Mix Master Mike & Q Bert, 2 founding members of The Invisible Scratch Piklz are probably THE best turntablists in the world. MMM taught QBert and he learned fast.. battling eachother twice, MMM winning the first and QB winning the 2nd... Turntablism is an exciting form of Electronic Music, and i felt some of you that are not exposed to it was really missing out on what a simple tunrtable trick from 20yrs ago has created to what it is today. also keep in mind that the video i shared is from 1995 ! almost 10yrs ago... im not comparing JZ to these guys cuz JZ aint a turntablist, but these guys ARE the ones who's inspired a ton of scratchers world wide and im sure JZ is one of them as well. glad you guys enjoyed it.

That was CRAZY.

Comparing Zabiela to Mix Master Mike is like comparing Paul Oakenfold to Billy Ray Cyrus.

Just to reiterate my earlier point (i watched the vid again):

Their skills are insane, absolutely off the hook! That shite requires ridiculous amounts of practice and persistance, as well as some creativity and i truly respect them for that.

Not my type of music, but still, R.E.S.P.E.C.T. to them.

That's just.. awesome. That Q Bert guy is god

...and my search for audio of Bad Boy Bill battling in 1988 when he won the DMC using classic house continues...

Found some recordings of his WBMX shows. Seems he played some Italo back then too, kickass.
