Another album you shouldn't sleep on! Today I listened to this again and it's still great... Halftime posted another Katalyst release here. Enjoy!

And click this tag (below) for all Don't Sleep On... installments. It goes way back to the early days of this blog in 2008 (damn); more than fifty albums throughout the years that you should hear for sure. You can see this tag as the best of MS. Opinions changed, tastes improved and musical knowledge increased, but personally I still love 90% of these picks.

"Katalyst (Ashley Anderson) initially recorded under the name Moonrock with fellow producer Illpickl.

After 2001, As Katalyst, he formed experimental record label, Invada Records, together with Portishead's Geoff Barrow, for which 2002's Manipulating Agent was the label's first release.His style on this record is a moody DJ Shadow influenced downtempo instrumental hiphop with a keen sense for digging."
