News: Katalyst ready to drop his third album ‘Deep Impressions’

The latest product of Katalyst’s audiophiliac obsession, ‘Deep Impressions’ deconstructs and distils soul, hip hop, funk, jazz, reggae and electro influences into what is perhaps most accurately described as “the Katalyst sound”. ‘Deep Impressions’ is a reflection of the large variety tunes that influence Katalyst’s own musical direction. On the upcoming album, to be released on September 16th, he works together with artists such as Steve Spacek, Bootie Brown (of The Pharcyde), Stephanie McKay, KweenG and others.

On the title of the album, Katalyst says, “Writing music for me is a continual process so when it came time to put the third Katalyst album together I looked at the songs I had written and recorded for the new release. As a body of work it was clear that many styles of music have made a deep impression on me as a producer. Hence the name of my album.”
