"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)

Before Through The Looking Glass, there was Ki-Motion. Two years before Midori Takada recorded her now famous 1983 solo album, the Japanese percussionist had already planted the seeds for her unique brand of ambient percussion fusion with Mkwaju Ensemble. On their debut album from 1981, Takada leads the ensemble through a suite of varied, transcendental sounds, all rooted in the concept that "rhythms represents the fabric of life." Here Takada combines her brilliant marimba, vibraphone, and bamboo percussion playing, with synthesizer by Shuichi Chino, and additional drums and percussion by Shuichi Murakami and Yoji Sadanari, resulting in a timeless and otherworldly vibe. From the synthesizer-backed poly-rhythms of "Wood Dance," to the ghostly atmosphere of "Maximum a," the playful and eclectic title track "Ki-Motion," or the gorgeous ambient drone "Hot Air," Ki-Motion perfectly captures the spirit of the golden age of Japanese ambient music. Original pressings are exceedingly rare and prohibitively expensive (upwards of $400), so this timely WRWTFWWR reissue is more than welcome. Highly Recommended.
- 1st ever reissue, originally released in 1981
- 350g old Stoughton tip-on sleeve
- vinyl cut at Emil Berliner Studios
- music label: We Release Whatever The Fuck We Want Records 2018
