This review is from: DJ Qbert's Wave Twisters (DVD)

From the collective minds of Doug Cunningham and DJ Qbert blasts forth this wicked delicacy. This is no second rate animated Hip-Hop afair, as 'Wave Twisters' was selected by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art to be included in its archive for digital moving images. I can view this little masterpiece repeatedly and never tire. A blind person could thoroughly enjoy this, as the audio sector of this film is spellbinding space-age turntablism and beats of the highest level. Each track from QBert's bad-ass 'Wave Twisters' album has been carefully illustrated, second-by-second, frame-by-frame. Not just illustrated, but in fact given a dynamite story involving an evil dentist, the red worm, and heros; culminating in a final showdown. It's about the ongoing battle between the dark, unelightened forces, and those trying to perpetuate the Lost Arts. This is a high quality capsule, that was unfortunately not given nearly the exposure it deserved. It is not a stretch to put this film in the same category as 'Heavy Metal', or 'Yellow Submarine'. 'Wave Twisters' is akin to those two films (but containing a wicked Turntablist/ Space-Age Hip-Hop soundtrack). If you are at all into Hip-Hop or QBert, then this is an essential purchase. Even if you are not, the dazzeling animation and clever storyline make it a worthwhile purchase as well. Fight the Power!

This review is from: DJ Qbert: Wave Twisters the Movie [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I've been wanting to see this movie for a really long time, and I finally got the chance the other night. Man! This movie is so awesome! If you're a fan of turntablism, then you are going to wet yourself. The movie takes Qbert's Wave Twisters album and puts it to a funky story about intergalatic war and the dentist that's going to save all the b-boys and b-girls. The animation fits so well with the music that you just find yourself sayin "Oh Damn that was so phat" over and over. And if you do like the movie then pick up the album so you can relive those tight beats and crazy scratches over and over again. Qbert is one of the greates turntablists that has ever lived, and probably will ever live.

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpiece, September 1, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: DJ Qbert's Wave Twisters (DVD)

This has most or all of the music for DJ Qbert's album of the same name. There is animation for every song, which creates sort of bizzare story as the DVD goes along. The animation is not brilliant but is does go perfectly with each piece of music and the characters have a hip, cool style as do the vehichles they ride around in. This is truly one of the most all time greatest "hip/hop-DJ" DVDs ever. I can't imagine any one who likes this type of music that would not fall in love with this DVD and watch it over and over.
