KOCH Records is once again, the Top Independent Label based on the number of Charted Titles according to Billboard. KOCH Records had the most charted titles (25) by an independent label for the year 2005. Although we best know Koch for their hip-hop and rap titles, their titles span various genres, including releases from AZ, Marcus Miller, Jim Jones, The Diplomats, Jerry Douglas, BG, Robert Earl Keen, Sheek Louch, and others. Amazingly for the six-year-old label, this marks the 5th year in a row the fastest-growing independent label has dominated the Independent Chart. In 2004, KOCH Records charted 27 titles, almost doubling the number of charted releases of any other independent label. In 2003, KOCH Records charted 28 titles; in 2002 it charted 25 titles, and in 2001, KOCH tied for first with TVT, with each label charting 19 titles. Between 2001 - 2005, KOCH Records had an impressive total of 124 charted titles on the Billboard Independent Chart. KOCH Records President Bob Frank says, "The continued dominance of KOCH Records is a by-product of our great team of record label professionals and our artists. In 2006 we''ll be more aggressive than ever as we build on our core foundation." Also adding to KOCH Records success is their online marketing team. As a web site owner, we have found KOCH one of the best in online promotion and having online reps that actually answer questions and do all they can, not only for their artists but for us online sources so we are kept up on all the news of releases and updates. KOCH Records is a division of KOCH Entertainment, the fastest-growing music company and the market leader among independents in North America.
