"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)

"It's a composite, an imaginary metropolis peopled by desperate cases,lovelorn souls, and amoral motives." Black City is the 4th studio effort from Matthew Dear. Originally released in 2010, the record is dark and brooding, a cryptic musical imagination of Dear who showcases his maturity and individuality as a songwriter. "Honey" opens up the LP. Eerie and tension-filled, the "cavernous atmospherics" that drive the song are broken up by distant distortions and bleeps. It's the perfect gateway to the shadowy world of Black City, which is followed by the slow-motion sleaze of "I Can't Feel." "Little People (Black City)" is the lead single, and it's a 9-plus-minute disco romp that feels lighter in mood, until you pay attention to the lyrics: "a frozen wasted heart / has died" / "Love Me like a clown." Yikes. "You Put a Smell on Me" is another highlight, a sex-charged synth pop full of ominous/fun sonic details. Also check out "More Surgery" and "Slowdance." This is the official reissue on black smoke vinyl, MP3 download included.
