Philippine label, founded in 1977 as WEA Records Philippines. The company was the licensee of WEA in Philippines for 15 years. In 1992, when the latter still decided to put its own office, the precursor of what is now Warner Music Philippines, the company adopted a new name, Universal Records Philippines, and since then it rose as one of the Philippines' best and biggest record labels.
URPI also released video karaoke VCDs versions of the label's songs in the Philippines.
Not to be confused with Universal Records International, Philippine releases from that label are released via MCA Universal Philippines.
