Can you believe it's 2021 and we are celebrating the 25th anniversary of Play Records? We’re excited where we are today and would like to thank all our fans and artists for their support and the amazing talent that helped bring us to where we are today.
2021 is the 25th anniversary of Play Records, one of Canada’s leading independent electronic music labels and publishers.
Founded in 1996 by Melleefresh and DJ Spydabrown, Play Records early vinyl and CD catalogue were rife with late 90s classic and lo-fi house, with new genres added as they entered the landscape. Transitioning from physical to digital to streaming, Play Records has kept up with the evolving industry and technology.
The label blew up in 2006 with the release of deadmau5’s first Beatport chart toppers. Including his 7 collaborations with Melleefresh, the Juno Award-winning All You Ever Want with Billy Newton-Davis, and his breakthrough hit, Faxing Berlin.
In 2012, Play ventured across the pond to open Play Deep Studios. a state of the art recording studio designed and run by Spydabrown in London, England. The studio has served an array of international artist, such as to the likes of Chance the Rapper, Childish Gambino, The Spice Girls, Rita Ora, and Elle Goulding , to name a few.
Among the many artists whose work has been released by Play Records are Dirty 30 (aka Alixander III), Adam K, Calvertron, Jerome Robins, Gettoblaster, Saladin, Danny Jay, NHB, Crazibiza, Keoki, Starkillers, MC Flipside, Crossfingers, Peter Brown, and Sick Individuals.
Some of the label's more recent artist finds include producers Hotknife (Glasgow), Kardano (Vancouver), and dj genderfluid (Toronto/Berlin.)
Play Records now serves as a port of entry into the music industry for new and emerging artists and those experienced artists who have decided to either create a second music brand for themselves or rebrand themselves altogether.
