"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)

Cornelius (aka Keigo Oyamada) was one of the first contemporary Japanese musicians to receive attention with western Indie Rock audiences via his 1997 album Fantasma, which earned him comparisons to eclectic and disciplined multi-instrumentalists Brian Wilson and Beck. Oyama was the co-founder of influential Shibuya-Kei group Flipper’s Guitar, but quit to embark on a solo career in 1994. His moniker was derived from the main character from Planet of the Apes, a film that has resonated deeply in Japanese underground culture. (It is also a key reference point for streetwear brand A Bathing Ape and urban vinyl toys by the likes of Medicom.) His music is experimental and exploratory, walking a line between harmonic pleasures and dissonant musique concrete sampling. Point expands upon this formula by integrating sounds of and inspired by the natural world with his synth pads, acoustic guitar snippets, and impeccable drum programming. Even though it’s primarily made of samples, the music sounds fresh and lively, with a spontaneous energy creeping between the sequenced rhythms and textures. “Point of View Point” is hi-fi breakbeats, pitch-shifted held vocals, and stereo guitar twang. “Drop” begins with quirkly water sloshing sounds and strict chords, turning what is a pretty abstract sample into a bizarro funk banger. “Brazil” begins with an animal howl and insect chatter, in strict contrast to the robotic tremolo of the vocals. This record has been out of circulation in America for quite some time, and out of print on vinyl worldwide for even longer. This double LP reissue includes three remixes from the era of the album’s original release by Yann Tomita, Kings of Convenience, and Matthew Herbert. Packaged in a gatefold sleeve with printer insert, includes a zoetrope print that will look amazing spinning on your turntable. Recommended.
