"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez

The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo

Sophomore studio album from Austin's Stars Of The Lid. Gravitational Pull Vs The Desire For An Aquatic Life was originally released in 1996 and found the duo of Brian McBride and Adam Wiltzie moving on from the rough sound of their debut. The heat and humidity of a Texas summer hits you from the first glance at the record's cover; vague shapes of trees and houses are visible through the grid of a screen door. It's a fitting image for the dense ambient drone that lies within. The music unfolds with such lethargy that you feel as if you are underwater or in a sensory deprivation tank. The album's opening side feels dark and swampy, almost claustrophobic. But things open up with "Lactate's Moment" as e-bowed guitars, strings and alien sine waves call out to you from the ether. This is the sound that would become Stars Of The Lid's modus operandi for the next two decades. Originally released on a troubled and noisy white vinyl pressing, Gravitational Pull Vs The Desire For An Aquatic Life gets a much needed vinyl reissue more than two decades since its release. Four tracks in all. Released by Kranky on black vinyl housed in a full color replica sleeve.
