"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
"It's always nice to feel like you're appreciated, and you guys have done a great job with that."- R. Abeel
"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. 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
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

You never know what to expect when you see the name Mike Patton on a record. Well, at least you know to expect something interesting and experimental. The Tetema project finds Patton teaming up with celebrated Australian pianist Anthony Pateras. The pianist apparently locked "himself in a French ex-convent for ten days to think about rhythm and sound" and the album was pieced together over the following two years. Different elements were recorded in cities throughout the world and the resulting album is as varied as the concept may indicate. The songs are heavy on rhythm and atmospherics, with Patton's voice providing some sort of guiding light through all of the cacophony. "Irundi" brings to mind the work of Geinoh Yamashirogumi, the group responsible for the Akira soundtrack. Layers of syncopated percussion give way to choruses of Patton's vocals, composing an vast landscape that seems to grow with every second. Elsewhere the staccato rhythms bring to mind Cut Hands, if only momentarily. There are more intense moments to be found as well. The noise and chaos of "Pure War" will please any Merzbow fanatic, but may be too much to endure for some. Have patience though, as there are more sublime experiments to be found throughout the album. The duo makes heavy use of drones, both from the human voice and synthesized, and the tracks that employ them could be thought of as antidotes to the more rhythm heavy moments. Geocidal is an album that may pose a challenge for some, but it is well worth listen as Pateras and Patton will take you to places unexplored and unexpected.
