"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)

Unearthed archival recordings blending traditional West African rhythm and vocals with experimental European electronics. Denis Mpunga was born in the Congo but relocated to the Belgian city of Liege with his family at age 13 and soon began playing Congolese-influenced percussive music with other like-minded local musicians. Paul K. (née Patrick Stas) was a ubiquitous force in the city’s experimental electronic scene, producing and playing in several outfits as well as running the Home Produkt imprint. Both well known in Belgium by 1980, the pair first collaborated on a soundtrack for a children’s animation company called CAMERA etc., compiled here as “Intermezzo I”, “Intermezzo II” & “Intermezzo III”, and continued to work together after that. Criola collects the duo’s experiments with Balafons, Senzas and Zither as well as Roland TB-303, TR-808 and Korg’s MS20 and MonoPoly synthesizers. The record veers from fairly straightforward warm acoustic African rhythms (“Veronica”, “What”) to sleek & immaculate synth compositions (the “Intermezzo” tracks), showcasing the broad range of influences on the duo’s craft. “Dos Niya” juxtaposes Mpunga’s Congolese singing and rhythm guitar against a cold electro post-punk beat. Music From Memory’s archival work continues to connect the dots between disparate musicians with vastly diverse disciplines and influences across several continents and generations, solidifying them as a buy-on-sight label and a Lab favorite.
