"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)

Debut release on Theo's inimitable Sound Signature imprint reissued! Originally released in 1997, The first release on Theo Parrish’s own Sound Signature label was one of the most shocking and unprecedented releases in “dance music” at the time. Possessed of one of the greatest song titles ever, “Carpet People Don’t Drink Steak Soda” is as tight and coherent a summation of Parrish’s unique aesthetic and range as a producer as anything that he’s released. I’m hard-pressed to think of anyone else before Parrish (besides fellow Detroit resident Moodymann) who existed in such a parallel world to mainstream dance music by so fiercely insisting on its roots in disco, Chicago house, jazz, and Detroit techno. Starting with a funky boogie-disco loop stretched and pulled to its edges like a rubberband close to breaking, the track winds it way through clicky rim shots, deep abstract Detroit keyboard riffs, and fractured vocals, jacking like it’s 4:30 in the morning the whole time. “Shadow Dancing” is Parrish minimalism at its finest, a stripped down beat underneath restrained, shimmering slivers of keyboard that sound like they’re drifting off into sleep, while “JB’s Edit” is just that- a raw, lo-fi edit that turns a slice of James Brown’s backing band into a jack-track. Indispensable for Parrish fans, and the usual limited repressing.
