Heartfeldt Records

Founded Heartfeldt Records as a platform to support fresh talent in dance-pop and electronic music. Led the new imprint to profitability within two years and scaled the company up to ± 50 high-quality releases per year.

Founder

We are a publishing-plus company that helps with artist branding, coaching, events, marketing, and distribution outside of the regular publishing-associated tasks.

Heartfeldt Foundation

Based on our Give/Do/Inspire/Empower model, the Heartfeldt Foundation is a ANBI-certified non-profit for sustainability in the entertainment industry.

Founder & CEO

"Sam Feldt, real name Sammy Boeddha Renders, isn't just an artist; he's an experience. As a multi-platinum, award-winning DJ and producer, he's made his mark on the global electronic music scene right from the buzzing epicenter of Amsterdam.

At the heart of Sam's empire is Heartfeldt, an umbrella entity that encompasses Heartfeldt Records, Heartfeldt Publishing, and Heartfeldt Events. Beyond the music, Sam’s dedication to philanthropy shines through the Heartfeldt Foundation, a non-profit devoted to sustainability.

Worldwide audiences have been captivated by his distinctive sound, with hits like "Post Malone" and "Show Me Love" amplifying his status in the industry. He's perfectly blended commercial success and artistic integrity, a testament to his unique approach to music.

But Sam's not just about the beats. He's an astute businessman and a force in the entrepreneurial scene. His innovative supplements business, Always Bright, offers a range of lifestyle-enhancing products, including anti-hangover, pre-party, sleep, and focus supplements. Notably, he successfully exited his startup, Fangage, a platform that enables creators to connect directly with their audience, which Triller recently acquired.

A vibrant personal life matches Sam’s professional success. His wife, Michelle, wears many hats, working as the label manager of Heartfeldt Records and leading marketing efforts. In their free time, they enjoy the company of their two beloved cats, Simba and Muis.

Sam's life is as diverse as his interests. A tech geek, biohacker, and golf enthusiast, he loves exploring new places. He has a knack for travel and an eye for detail, often sharing tips and tricks about point hacking with his followers.

Known for his calm demeanor, Sam always handles high-stress situations professionally. His dry humor, characterized by not taking himself or the industry too seriously, sets him apart online and offline.

Continually pushing boundaries, Sam Feldt is not just a titan in electronic music but also an inspiring figure in business and beyond. With a keen vision, unstoppable energy, and a heart rooted in sustainability, Sam's impact is felt far and wide." - ChatGPT
