Ed Banger Records is a French electronic music record label run by Pedro Winter. Founded in 2003 as a division of Headbangers Entertainment.
The label is home to French electronic acts Justice, Sebastian, Cassius, Uffie, Krazy Baldhead, DJ Mehdi, Mr Oizo, Mr. Flash, Vicarious Bliss, So Me, Feadz, Breakbot, DSL, Mickey Moonlight, Boston Bun and Pedro Winter himself, under the alias Busy P. Most of the Ed Banger Records video and album art is coordinated by So Me.
The label enjoyed a dramatic rise in fame in early 2007 when a number of the artists signed to its roster found mainstream success, most notably French electronic group Justice, whose rework of "Never Be Alone" by now defunct electro-rock band Simian, entered the UK charts at #20. The track was a success in clubs worldwide.[1] The music video for the single won the award for best video at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2006. Labelmate Uffie also enjoyed a rise in fame in late 2006 when her single, "Pop the Glock", gained international radio play.
Ed Banger Records collaborated with the cosmetics brand Uslu Airlines to create a glow in the dark nail polish coming with a special mini mix done by Busy P.
