Who are Champion Records?

If ever there was a blueprint for how to survive and succeed as an independent label in the UK then surely Champion Records must be it. Champion was started in 1980 by Mel Medalie and is probably one of the oldest record companies with the same management/ownership in music. Champion is an independent label based in NW London that has been running for 28 years with a staff of which has never excee...ded 6 people as the office is small.

In 1982 Champion hired its first employee, an 18 year old named Paul Oakenfold who had been working as messenger boy in New York. Champion Records aimed at releasing underground club tunes, Hip Hop, Rare Grooves, Jazz & Soul tracks as well as uplifting House tunes on 12” vinyl originally found and licensed from the USA. Tunes like Spank ‘Oh Baby’, Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince ‘Girls Ain’t Nothin’ But Trouble’, Salt ‘N Pepa ‘Push it’ & Rene & Angela ‘Secret Rendezvous’.

As musical taste evolved Champion aligned itself with the early house and garage movement. It produced iconic tracks including Raze’s ‘Break 4 Love’, Robin S ‘Show Me Love’, Sandy B ‘Make The World Go Round’, Kristine W ‘Feel What You Want’ & Sybil ‘Don’t Make me Over’. These then turned into some of the most famous & credible artists in the world along with DJ’s like Todd Terry, Kerri Chandler, Junior Vasquez and Stonebridge.

THE SQUATTERS TAKE IT HIGHER...

The Squatters, Higher, Champion Records
The Squatters - 'Higher' out NOW on Champion Records.

Star Wars, Back To The Future, Lord Of The Rings – all the best things come in threes. Champion Records present the third in a run of releases from the boys that put the P in party – The Squatters!

The Squatters are fast rising through the ranks of DJ stardom. Currently enjoying their residency at Judge Jules’ Judgement Sundays events in Ibiza and at home, as well as a string of other bookings worldwide, Alex and Oli have even found time to get in the studio and producing some of the freshest dance anthems around.

'Higher' sticks firmly to their signature sound with stomping 4×4 beats and drops to a rave-influenced riff before building to a bleepy, slidy crescendo, accompanied by an all important vocal tag. We’ve seen this one do damage on an unsuspecting dancefloor and it does NOT disappoint!

On remix duties HeavyFeet! The boys bring in a bouncy skippy house beat to accompany the original main riff before dropping into some 80’s style kicks and snares and slipping in a piano line to boot. One for the golden isle dancefloors right here, in fact so much so, it's been included in Champion's Ibiza 2011 compilation!

To finish, newcomers Flask on dubstep remix duties. Low end frequencies and coursing, piercing beats make this a must have weapon in your dubstep arsenal!

Early support from Aniki, Kissy Sellout David Jones, Akira Kiteshi, DJ EZ, Dooze Jackers, Ben & Lex, Kelevra, and many more...
