"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)

Kenny Dixon Jr.’s second LP and first on Peacefrog, originally released in 1998. Mahogany Brown rolls out in signature KDJ style - everything happens on his terms and at his pace - so prepare to sit through seven minutes of Moody flipping through the radio dial (“Radio”) before you get to the goods. But listen closely between the cracks and you’ll catch a slew of influences (Prince, 2Pac, tons of Detroit hip-hop) as well as a few gems from Moody himself waxing on his creative philosophy (“I don’t make records for the mass majority to dance to, I make music for the small majority… that listens”). “Sunshine” is signature Moody kitchen sink sample house, juxtaposing a half dozen different loops at once with sublime results, in anyone else’s hands it 100% wouldn’t work. The hootin’ hollerin’ gospel house of “Black Sunday” and “On The Run” smoky after hours vibes are other standouts, but “MahoganyBrown” is the one I always go back to - an absolute masterclass in jazz house that demonstrates Moody’s deft sampling ear and his uncanny ability to do a whole lot with very little. I don’t know if I’d trust myself to try out any of these tracks in the DJ booth, most of them start and stop quite abruptly, but this is a near-perfect at-home Sunday afternoon house record. 2019 repress on purple colored vinyl with repro packaging; these usually don’t hang around for long so be swift. Recommended.
- purple colored double vinyl pressing
- limited edition
- original release year: 1998
- music label: Peacefrog Records 2019
