"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)

BACK IN 2017, MAKAYA MCCRAVEN WAS RECORDING MATERIAL FOR HIS 2018 OPUS Universal Beings, visiting the four cities and playing with the local musicians that ended up making the rich, diverse, and groundbreaking album. While spending three days in London he connected with first time collaborators Theon Cross, Nubya Garcia, Joe Armon-Jones, Soweto Kinch, Ashley Henry, Daniel Casimir and Kamaal Williams, and in addition to the Universal Beings sessions, did two improvised performances in a showcase called CHICAGOxLONDON. The following Sunday five producers (LeFtO, Ben LaMar Gay, Quiet Dawn, Earl Jeffers and Don Leisure) were invited to participate in a live-beat making session, where they did live remixes of the recordings from Makaya & co's CHICAGOxLONDON performance. Then, over the ensuing months, Makaya meticulously returned to those sessions, and - as has become his modus operandi - chopped everything up and re-composed the tunes into two continuous side suites, presented here on vinyl after increased demand for a physical release. The album is absolute madness in the best possible ways. It's gritty, futuristic, spontaneous, and grooves HARD. Almost impossible to play only once, you'll be keeping this album on repeat for weeks and months to come. To take such organic music and put it through the DAW treatment and STILL have it sound organic is a monstrous feat, but Makaya makes it seem effortless. It's like the stories you read of Dilla hearing a sample and then flipping it in an almost impossible way where it feels as if that's how the song originally goes. Makaya's gone places and still has so far to go. 14 tracks in all, packaged in a heavyweight matte jacket with printed OBI strip and 2-sided IARC-TRC patterned inner sleeve. Recommended.
