This collection of instrumentals is the premier offering from Supernaturals Productions. Work on the collection began in the summer of 2005. Several of the beats (including Metallic Sunrise, We all Come, No Nuggets) sat on the shelf for a year and a half, only to be completed when Big Cricket and The Catalyst reunited upon Cricket's return to New York in November of 2006. The two producers dusted these old beats off, realized they were bangin, and decided to release them, to tremendous Internet buzz and acclaim (8,000 hits on myspace in the first week) catching the eyes and ears of several high profile artists. More than anything, these were the beats that legitimized the Super Naturals as producers.
