Heartcore Records

Heartcore Records is Kurt Rosenwinkel's company dedicated not only to releasing his own music but also to find and support great artistry around the world.

Why did i start a record company? Because i was tired of hearing no for an answer. tired of people tell me that my music doesnt fit into convenient genres that were invented to target audiences for the purposes of advertising. I will create my own genre and market the MUSIC to people who like music for music’s sake. I reject the idea that music is just a vehicle to market other products and has no value in and of itself. Thats where we are today in America- Clear Channel bought the radio stations and invented musical categories in order to sell advertising space, delivering targeted demographics to advertisers through these new “Genres”. Then they bought all the Music Venues, turning them into captive audiences-not for the music-but for the advertisers who would target these audiences while at the performance. Thats why theres only 5 songs on the radio, all across the country. Its Totalitarian in nature, and if you don’t fit into this paradigm, you will always get a “no”. I reject that. I will create my own company that exists totally outside of that, establishing my own brand that exists for the sake of humanity and music. Heartcore Records will be a beacon of light in a desolated landscape, going directly to the people, making and yes- selling music- to people who love music, for musics sake. Bless,
Kurt Rosenwinkel

New in collaboration with our partner , Modal Harmony for Modern Jazz Guitar is now available!

This practical guide takes you deep into the harmonic language of contemporary jazz, exploring how the Major and Melodic Minor scales generate the modal sounds that shape modern improvisation.

Designed as a hands-on masterclass, the book helps guitarists move beyond scale patterns and develop a deeper, more expressive connection with harmony.

Dear friends,

As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to say thank you. This past year has been filled with incredible music, shared knowledge, inspiring conversations, and the chance to collaborate with friends we truly value.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who listened, supported, came to shows, engaged with our releases, and cared about the music as much as we do. None of this would be possible without you being part of the Heartcore community.

We are heading into the holidays full of gratitude and excitement for what is to come in 2026. Wishing you a peaceful holiday season filled with warmth, rest, and inspiration.

Looking forward to continuing this journey together in the new year.

Always with love,
Heartcore Team🤍
