"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)

Ana da Silva and Gina Birch met while studying at Hornsey college of Art in London, and the two formed The Raincoats in 1977. Despite having very little experience w/ music, the duo's inventive DIY spirit brought forth its self-titled 1979 debut, which featured new recruits Ingrid Weiss & Vicky Aspinall. Punk was still very much in play when the Raincoats entered the circuit w/ its distinct "post-punk" sound and although the non-commercial aesthetic was not for everyone, the band had some early admirers: "The Raincoats offered a completely different way of doing things… these women were involved for no other reason that that they were good and original," said Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols. Some years later, based on their fondness for the the Raincoats, Kurt Cobain and Kim Gordon would pen liner notes for DGC Records reissues of the band's first three albums, and the late Nirvana frontman is also credited w/ sorting out the rift that had troubled the prospects of Silva & Birch's continued collaboration (the Raincoats were to tour with Nirvana, but Cobain committed suicide before the plan could materialize). Despite its relatively short and little-known participation in scene, The Raincoats are counted as one of the most influential acts to rise out of the British Punk explosion of the '70s, and it is easy to see why. Songs like "Fairytale in the Supermarket," "No Side to Fall In," "Adventures close to Home," "Black and White," and "Lola" (a Kinks cover) sound as relevant as ever, and the fact that the band didn't subscribe to the fast-paced, aggression-fueled m.o. of its male contemporaries has rendered its work timeless. Recommended.
