Dorion Quest aka Mr Quest biography Name > Dorion Khan Quest Stage name > Mr Quest Born 1975 I started djing in 1989 age 13 on a set of Garard belt driven turntables with no speed control or cross fader, I had to make what is known as slipmatts from pieces of cardboard, these where placed under the record on the turntable platter to give more control when cueing up a tune/record. The mixing process was very basic. I started off by just fading one track into another, no beat matching nothing at all. It was very messy and sounded terrible, I soon progressed into beat matching but I could only achieve this by manually manipulating, speeding up or slowing down the record by touching the platter/record deck with my fingers. I suppose this was an art in its self but I was happy to let it go after getting my hands on a turntable with the all important speed control function, it was very hard to get hold of equipment back in 1990 there were few shops...
