Lightsleepers: Pop-Up Shop
There’s something very appealing about individuals who go after what they want & never apologize for continuing to progress. On the Lightsleepers website they end their bio with the phrase, “The Lightsleepers; never sleep, don’t sleep & won’t sleep.” This phrase speaks to me in a number of different ways: 1) When an idea forms in my mind, I can’t stop thinking about it & I don’t sleep until I’ve figured out a way to execute that idea. 2) Whenever I reach a goal, I always make sure to create another one, that way I’m always working towards something. 3) Hardwork & being persistent pays off eventually.

After talking with K.T. Catalyst, I found out that from his KTUH radio show was when he first started to make shirts & stickers for promotions, he even released music under the Lightsleepers name. Which led to K.T. Catalyst doing art shows, BBoy Battles & DJ Battles. With every music release there was a shirt & every shirt release he gave away a mixed CD or sticker. Eventually everything fell into place, making what everyone has come to know & love about the Lightsleepers: a manifestation of natural progression.
The Lightsleepers have an incredible amount of confidence that shines through in every endeavour they pursue. There’s no doubt in my mind that the Lightsleepers have people that hate on them, but those are probably the same people who motivate the Lightsleepers to succeed. By the way, their haters don’t appear to be affecting their success.
Lightsleepers would like to extend their thanks to everyone that’s ever helped, supported, loved & hated on the Lightsleepers. “If I haven’t helped you, one day I will in someway or form.” — K.T. Catalyst
