"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)

UK disco specialist Joey Negro selects a grip of rare electro for Z Records. Before hip-hop became a permanently MC-focused music, DJs & producers were the star of the show. Inspired by Afrika Bambaataa and, indirectly, Kraftwerk, Bronx heavyweights Mantronix and Man Parrish racked up hit records that emphasized electrified sounds and accentuated syncopation. Somewhere along the line, though, Marley Marl mistakenly discovered the unlimited possibilities of the SP-1200 sampler, and electro (yes, electro, not electro) was relegated to a niche subgenre, inadvertently inspiring its purveyors to push the boundaries and explore imaginative sci-fi and Afro-Futurist themes. A Personal Selection Of Electro Classics demonstrates the wide breadth of the genre, from the street soul of Aleem, vocoder funk of Dwayne Omarr and G-Force, to The Russell Brothers' boogie-down block party rap. Throw in Paul Hardcastle's sophisticated dollar-bin gem "Rainforest" for good measure and you have a complete blueprint for the sound that laid the foundation for second-wave heroes Alden Tyrell, Aux 88, Drexciya and DJ Stingray. With many of these original 12-inch singles going for over $200 on the second hand market, this comp is a no-brainer for anyone looking to fill some gaps in their robot-soul crate. Gatefold sleeve includes extensive liner notes by Joey Negro and Greg Wilson. Recommended.
