about
The Invisibl Skratch Piklz were a group of American/Latin/Filipino turntablists. The members of the group were originally hip-hop DJs, who were among the pioneers of the turntablism movement in the 1990s; turntablists create musical pieces by mixing samples from records, by using multiple turntables as instruments.

The group began with DJ Q-bert, Mix Master Mike, and DJ Apollo (who left the group in 1993). The group later added DJ Disk, Dj Shortkut, DJ Flare, Yogafrog, D-Styles, and A-Trak to their lineup. They released numerous mix projects & albums and were featured in documentaries such as Battle Sounds and Scratch. The Invisibl Skratch Piklz performed their last show on July 1, 2000 at the Skratchcon 2000 conference in San Francisco, California.
