MUMBAI: "In the light of the current Coronavirus situation, I doubted postponing the long-planned launch of my own label Heartfeldt Records. In times like these, one really questions their own values and beliefs - and we are all forced into introspection. After thinking about this long and hard, I've decided to move ahead with the launch of the label - hoping for it to become a beacon of hope and a source of inspiration and enjoyment in these challenging times we all face.

This is not just another record label. Heartfeldt stands for everything that I believe is relevant right now: caring for one another and the planet, doing things with passion and holding your loved ones close. With this vision in mind, we are building a movement, a Heartfeldt Family. Supporting upcoming talent, while at the same time giving back to mother earth and making a difference by donating 1% of our net receipts to the Heartfeldt Foundation. With this first release, Hold Me Close and the #LetsStayHome campaign, I am looking to spread a message of love for each other, the planet and mankind." - Sam Feldt

Platinum-selling Dutch DJ and producer Sam Feldt has decided to take his career and his commitment to a more sustainable future one step further by launching his very own label: Heartfeldt Records. Sam’s quest to create a more social and sustainable dance music industry lead Heartfeldt Records to be the first record label with sustainability at the core of its mission.

Operating under the wings of Spinnin’ Records, Heartfeldt Records will strive to create a home for the many talented emerging artists he meets around the world. Creating the Heartfeldt family will not only allow artists to release on the label but also to perform at Heartfeldt Events. With the launch of this new project, Sam is firmly setting his danceable tropical house genre in the spotlight.

To celebrate the launch of his own imprint Heartfeldt Records and the release of his single ‘Hold Me Close’ together with Ella Henderson, Sam Feldt is giving fans an exclusive way to experience some live sets by Heartfeldt Records artists and, of course, himself. Introducing Sam’s Home Sessions, a digital festival hosted on Spinnin’ TV: Friday March 27 from 7:00 pm till 11.00 pm UTC time.

Very active with his Heartfeldt Foundation, Sam works hard at promoting a more sustainable lifestyle. This mission is a common thread across the Heartfeldt business chain: Heartfeldt Radio, Heartfeldt Events, and now Heartfeldt Records. With this in mind, Sam decided that 1% over the net receipt royalties of Hold Me Close will go towards Oasebos, who are protectors of the rainforest in Costa Rica, and CarbonTrees, who are planters of rainforest in Costa Rica.
