"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)

If there are three words that perfectly characterize Burial’s music, they’re “Inner City Life.” Goldie first teased the existence of this remix over two years ago in an interview with Gilles Peterson, and our imagination ran wild with the possibilities. Burial’s modus operandi in 2017 seems to be to confound expectations, and rather than turning in an airy, stripped down roller capitalizing on the tune’s uncanny atmosphere, he delivers a jagged mix that runs parallel to the original, rebuilding the atmosphere from the ground up with new snatches of eerie vocals and jungle breaks in an attempt to rival the electrifying energy of Goldie's version. We’re not sure that it accomplishes just that, but it’s certainly a unique and enjoyable take on a certified classic that only Burial could deliver. Like all Burial tunes from the past 6 or 7 years, his remix shifts shapes two or three times, packing in what could easily be a handful of different mixes into one epic song suite. The first chunk harps on the same thorny looped break, peppered with Burial’s signature urban aesthetics. But the final two minutes are breathtaking, chopping up fragments of a few other tracks from the Timeless album and sprinkling them over stretches of sublime ambience and the main drum break, this time coupled with a bittersweet vocal loop that conjures pure hardcore rave bliss. The “2017 Rebuild” is no slouch either; a gentle update that is unbelievably faithful to the original, edited by nu-skool Metalheadz duo Ulterior Motive in all the ways that count. Diane Charlemagne (R.I.P.)’s disarming vocal is slightly higher in the mix, the drums are crisper and the bass is deeper (check the audio samples). Those of us who missed out on the limited RSD black vinyl pressing are rewarded for our patience with this stunning silver colored vinyl pressing. Recommended.
