AmpLive

AmpLive is an American music producer and DJ best know as half of the Hip-Hop duo Zion-I. AmpLive furthered his production career collaborating with Goapele, Planet Asia, Too $hort, Chali 2na, Codany Holiday and Del the Funky Homosapien, as well as remixing works by MGMT, Linkin Park, and Radiohead. His work has also been featured in a number of movies and TV shows, most prominently in ESPN's "Playmakers", but also "Honey", "Big Fat Liar", "America's Next Top Model" and "SportsCenter".

Unauthorized remix

Amplive received a cease and desist letter from Warner/Chappell, informing him that his "Rainydayz Remixes" of Radiohead's "In Rainbows" record "created musical arrangements/remixes" without proper approval. After building an internet movement, primarily through YouTube, Stereogum and Pitchfork, a settlement was reached and Amp was allowed to release the album for free.
