Extra Medium is a production duo (Buscrates 16-Bit Ensemble and Sam Champ) that came up together in Pittsburgh, PA, digging for vinyl at Jerry's Records and chopping samples in an effort to outdo one another. The friendly competition continued after Sam relocated to Brooklyn in 2001. Buscrates now plays keys for boogie-funk group East Liberty Quarters (ELQ) and lives in Atlanta. Sam has held down various DJ residencies in New York City, released a massively popular D'Angelo Live mixtape in conjunction with Okayplayer, and produced an unofficial remix album featuring D’Angelo, Erykah Badu, Usher, and others. He now lives in San Francisco. This is their first official project together.
