"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)

Lone album by Matthew Vosburgh and Dan Goldstein as Solid Space, released in 1982 when they were just 18 years old. Considered by Veronica Vasicka to be one of the best minimal wave records of all time, Space Museum is a singular work fusing dark acoustic guitar chords, atmospheric Casio MT-30 vamps and bossa nova drum machine rhythms (I put this on in my apartment and after the first couple bars of “Afghan Dance,” my bird starting singing “Hotline Bling,” LOL), executed with a certain playfulness that’s noticeably absent in most of these austere 80s postpunk records. At it’s highest points, it splits the difference between the cold freeze dramatics of The Cure’s goth trilogy and the provincial teenage dejection of Felt or The Smiths, but don’t fade away, it’s not all castrated misery here. Thoughts of the moon, the stars and a general longing for the outer limits pervade the record (many of the track titles are taken directly from Dr. Who serials and 1960s sci-fi shows), and the boys even play one for the dancefloor on “Radio France.” Says Vosburgh: “Solid Space involved me getting on a bus with a bunch of equipment and going over to Dan’s house for the afternoon, one reason we always favoured light battery-powered gear.” While the duo’s naïveté is directly responsible for the brilliance of these recordings, Space Museum can actually get a little grating at times (by the time the shriek-filled closing track rolled around, GF was begging me to turn it off) but that’s part of its charm, here in all its original raw and overlooked glory with two bonus tracks from the band’s archive (“Platform 6,” “Tutti Lo Sanno”). Check out “Destination Moon,” “A Darkness In My Soul,” "Afghan Dance" (spiritual sister to Antena's "Achilles"), “Please Don’t Fade Away,” “Tenth Planet” and “Earthshock.” Originally released on cassette in 1982 and only available on vinyl via a number of shoddy bootlegs, west coast wave saviors Dark Entries come through with the first-ever legit vinyl pressing - and it sounds incredible. Includes printed insert with full album credits and lyrics plus a replica postcard featuring the original ad for the cassette. Recommended.
