Maxime Morin,is a Montreal-based Canadian multi-instrumentalist, better known for his work in electronic music under the name DJ Champion, or simply Champion.
Maxime Morin began playing guitar at age 13, mostly specializing in heavy metal music. He went on to play in a few punk and metal bands, but by the age of 25, he found himself moving away from metal and gravitating towards techno. The transition was a gradual one: "Totally, I was like 'Dance music is crap!' So it was actually a big liberation, to lose my fear of dance music," said Morin in a 2004 interview.
By 2001, Morin had become frustrated with commercial music work. As part owner of Ben & Max Studios, he was able to make a living producing music for advertising and film, but he also felt "empty". He thus decided to focus on making more personal music instead, in a direction where he could combine "the two things that made [him] feel good: Live electronics and guitars ..."
He also chose to change his performance name from Mad Max to DJ Champion as a way to poke fun at the growing dance music scene and the resulting outbreak of DJs: "Everybody wanted to be a DJ and wanted to know 'Who's the best DJ?' I was like, 'I don't give a damn about all that crap now. I'm DJ Champion.
2005 saw the release of Champion's debut album, Chill'em All. It included the hit single "No Heaven"—a soulful and bluesy song set against heavy dance beats and noisy guitar riffs.
Chill'em All won the Album of the Year Félix Award in 2005 in the electronic/techno category and was nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 2006 Juno Awards. "No Heaven" was nominated at the 2006 CASBY Awards in the category Favourite New Song and won the SOCAN prize for Dance Music in 2007. The album went on to sell over 100,000 copies across Canada.
Champion published his third studio album, °1, in 2013, and followed it in 2016 with Best Seller.
