Maxi Records

Maxi Records was an independent dance record label.

Established by Claudia Cuseta and Kevin McHugh in 1990, the New York CIty based label helped establish the House Music scene in the 90s working with producers Mood II Swing, Cevin Fisher, Naked Music NYC, Itaal Shur, Danny Krivit; artists Daphne, Sagat, Big Muff, Judy Albanese; and established names Masters At Work, Danny Tenaglia, Roger Sanchez, Joe Claussell, Francois Kevorkian, Armand Van Helden, Byron Burke, Benji Candelario, and Shay Jones.

The label achieved fame in 1994 with the success of the Sagat single "Funk Dat" . "Funk Dat" went on to sell over half a million copies and reached the top ten of Billboard's Dance Charts.[1]

Following this success, the label expanded their marketing to other cities such as Miami.[2]

Maxi signed a licensing deal with Razor & Tie records in 2000.[3]

The Maxi Records Catalogue was purchased by Nettwerk Music Group in 2015.[4]
