Battery Records was a dance sublabel of Jive Records active for a short time in the mid-1990s unrelated to the current hip hop label also part of the Jive/Zomba family. The label was mostly known for releasing music by the Swedish Eurodance group Rednex in North America, namely its novelty hit "Cotton Eye Joe."
==History==
Battery was formed when Zomba's Dutch office signed Rednex and created a number-one hit with "Cotton Eye Joe." Newly appointed Jive president Barry Weiss was attempting to broaden the pop-music reach of the label group, and introducing Rednex to American listeners was one of his first steps. Suddenly Jive needed a suitable American outlet for this unique style and didn't feel that any current sub-labels were appropriate. Thus, Battery record's inaugural release was the "Cotton Eye Joe" American import in 1994. Although the song was successful, reaching #25 on the ''Billboard'' charts, it remained the group's only US hit.
While the New York City-based label largely focused on pop-oriented electronic music, it also released Insane Clown Posse's third album, ''Riddle Box''. The label continued for a few more years signing at least one more artist but shut its doors in 1996.
