BusCrates is a Producer/Synthesist/DJ and all around renaissance man, hailing from the Steel City, Pittsburgh, PA, an artist that blurs the lines between boogie funk and boom bap hip hop beats.

Crates’ new EP Altitude is a voyage that orbits the planet in the liminal space known as the funkmosphere, a natural progression from the sounds he has devised over the years, achieving a new level of ready-for-prime-time sophistication.

BusCrates joined 2SER Breakfast to chat about the new record, Pittsburgh hip hop and a childhood surrounded by vinyl records.
