About Us

Central Station

To generations of young Australian music fans, the name Central Station has always meant one thing: dance. Central Station Records is an institution, from its retail stores across the country, its record labels, its chart hits, right down to its iconic logo. From the very outset, the story of Central Station Records has been intertwined with the history of dance music in Australia.

Central Station was there at the start, a facilitator, a driving force in the growth of the local dance and club culture. Last year Central Station Records turned 30, a remarkable and rare achievement for any dance music associated business anywhere in the world, let alone all the way Down Under.

Dance music has undergone infinite change since the initial funk and disco explosions of the '70s. From house to hip-hop, and all the hundreds of genres in between, it has developed into the defining sound of our age. Central Station Records was there from the beginning.

Today, Central Station Records and its sub labels Grindin’ (Hip Hop & Reggae), Hardwax (commercial Hip Hop) & Tinted (House) are part of a wider whole, the destra Media Group. This puts the music industry institution that is CSR in a great position to embrace and utilise all the changes and challenges the music industry is experiencing now and in the future.

The Central Station Team

Refreshingly without ego and balanced with creative vision, dynamic advertising initiatives and technical expertise, Central Station is made up of a small, highly effective team.
