Also Known As: Malcolm Catto

The latest in Madlib Invazion's music library series is "Glass Cathedral" from Chop, the alias of producer/drummer Malcolm Catto. 

Here's the scoop...

The Madlib Invazion Music Library Series was created by Madlib and Egon over the course of the Pandemic, and was a chance to give their creative friends the ability to stretch out and indulge in whatever type of music they wanted for release on the label. 

The music had to be great and able to be presented as a stand alone album – like the best “Music Library” releases of the past, on labels like Italy’s Sermi, Germany’s Bruton, France’s MP2000 and the UK’s DeWolfe. And, like those albums, it had to work as easy, one-stop clearance for background cues in film and television production and, as producers have been indulging since the 1990s, for sampling. 

The series contains 12 releases by DJ Muggs, Karriem Riggins, J-Zone, the Heliocentrics’ Malcolm Catto and Jake Ferguson, JJ Whitefield of Karl Hector/Whitefield Brothers/Poets of Rhythm, Motif Alumni and Music Research Library, Mario Luciano of Polyphonic Music Library, Henkel, Gabriel Rowland of Los Yesterdays, Dan Hastie and Terin Ector of Orgone, Dan Ubick and Joe Harrison 

The albums will be released on the Madlib Invazion Bandcamp on the first Friday of each month over the course of one year. Listen to "Psycho Bubble" off the Glass Cathedral album from Mr. Chop or simply "Chop" (aka Malcolm Catto of The Heliocentrics) following the tracklisting and a short Analogue feature.
