Carving out a distinct sonic niche, Quest is a vinyl devotee on a one-man mission to meld forgotten gems with future classics. His approach to DJing—fluid, reactive, and instinctual—channels a lifetime spent studying the craft. Raised on a steady diet of underground Italian hip-hop and early UK sounds, Quest sharpened his ears during a formative stint in London, where he worked at the legendary Vinyl Pimp. Now based in Berlin, he’s quietly cemented his reputation as one of the finest selectors around, while also steering La Nota Del Diablo—a label dedicated to eccentric, emotive club music. Following an unforgettable set at Dekmantel 2024, Quest returns this year with another mix of everything from UKG and outré techno to long-lost house and other rarities pulled from the outer reaches of his envy-inducing record collection.
