"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)

Formed by Ichiko Hashimoto and Atsuo Fujimoto shortly after their previous band toured with YMO, Colored Music released this self-titled album in 1981 before going on hiatus for 36 years. Hashimoto and Fujimoto are the principle songwriters and musicians, but Colored Music features an array of session players; notably the alluring percussionist Pecker (to what degree, we’re not exactly sure) and Prism drummer Mansaku Kimura. Much of the album features Kimura’s drumming on top of the 808 and various other drum machines, creating a unique rhythmic palette inspired by the combined man & machine grooves heard on Sly Stone’s Fresh album. The top line consists of Hashimoto and Fujimoto taking turns on vocals over deep funk-inspired basslines and an omnipresent layer of celestial pads courtesy of the Roland Jupiter 4. Inspired by Roxy Music, Miles Davis, Brian Eno and Bowie’s Berlin Trilogy, the album is a colorful mix of adventurous improvisation (“Third Eye / Clear Light”), jazz-funk greatness (“Love Hallucination”), jagged post-punk guitar shrieks dressed up in rapid-fire 808 beats (“Ei Sei Raku”) and even proto-house music (“Heartbeat”). They veer from Kate Bush-inspired balladry (“Sanctuary”) to cocky blues-rock à la ZZ Top (“Too Much Money”) from one track to the next, and the moods swing just as effortlessly within the course of a single song; check out the uptempo avant-funk grooves breaking out into gorgeous piano-led cascade on “Anticipation.” 2025 Japan import pressing with previously CD-only bonus track "Giant Bird," recommended.
- clear sky blue colored vinyl
- high quality Japan import
- includes obi strip + printed foldout insert
- limited edition
- original release year: 1981
- music label: Nipponophone 2025
