Established in 2018, Middle Name Records encompasses Sampology’s recording studio and bespoke record label. Initially founded to release his own Sampology material and recordings from Middle Name Dance Band, the jazzy house/broken beat side-project he shares with Sam Stosuur and Megan Christensen, Sam now sees the label as a way to document memorable moments within the music scenes that surround him.

“As I see it, part of my value in running a label is having engineering, producing and mixing skills. People can come in here and do development and recording days rather than having to deal with commercial pressures that don’t serve the spirit of the project,” Sam says. “It’s also just how I want to spend my time.”
