"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)

Nick Murphy is the legal name of Chet Faker, chosen as an homage to 50’s Jazz singer and trumpeter Chet Baker. Faker's first hit was a viral cover of BLACKsteet’s "No Diggity" in May 2011, leading to a record deal, well-received EP (2012's Thinking in Textures) and collaborations with MS MR, Flume, and Say Lou Lou. His “chill”, slightly leftfield indie-electronic hybrid style fit neatly with contemporaries Rhye and How To Dress Well, but something didn't quite feel right. He explains as follows: “Chet Faker was me trying to prove something to myself. But my tastes are pretty dynamic, and I realized I’ve spent time resisting that. Now I want to put everything in. It’s not conceptual anymore. It’s just me.” His first release as under his own name was the Missing Link EP (featuring Kaytranada) in 2017, a tidy harbinger of what was to come. Run Fast Sleep Naked sees Murphy teaming up with producer Dave Harrington, known from his guitar work with proggy electronic project Darkside alongside Nicolas Jaar. More soulful than his 2014 debut, the record ditches the cool, clinical electronics for organic instrumentation (including a full orchestra!) and a wide range of voices. Opening track “Hear It Now” is an immediate declaration of intent, with dramatic harp, angelic choir, and rugged sax blasts. “Harry Takes Drugs On The Weekend” is brass stabs and electronic organ, “Novacaine and Coca Cola” is personal and minimalist. This record is packaged in a matte-finish reverse board sleeve and is pressed on black vinyl.
