441 Records Corporation is a new & innovative, independent record label that features top quality recordings of quality jazz, blues, R&B and electronica music. Our artists are real musicians playing real music.

441 Records Corporation is located within Avatar Studios in Midtown West neighborhood of New York City. Over 400 Gold and Platinum albums have been recorded in the building that houses Avatar Studios, which was formerly known as The Power Station.

For years, Avatar's management had been astonished by the fact that dozens of great recordings made at Avatar Studios by world-renowned jazz artists were never made available for sale in the U.S., but seemed to do well in foreign markets. That said, 441 Records' initial mission is to market much of the jazz music that was recorded, or mixed, at Avatar for here in the U.S.

By creating a label that is headquartered in a recording studio environment, our goal is to take the enormous care that goes into recording and extend it over to the process of packaging, marketing, and distribution. The organization follows the classic model of a "boutique label," working very closely with artists from project conception to distribution of the final product.

441 Records staff members are all seasoned, industry veterans who welcome the task of creating a business that is scaled appropriately and run professionally with realistic expectations.

The President of 441 Records, Harvey Rosen, has over 30 years of major label as well as independent label sales & marketing experience. He is responsible for label operations and heads up a team of seasoned veterans.

Rosen comments, "The opportunities are right here in front of us. What we are doing is nothing new. Rather, we are just going back to the old-fashioned way of doing things. With the label and the studio in combination, we can take a recording project from soup to nuts, that is, start with the recording process from the very first note played and go right through to the placement of a finished album on the streets." Rosen adds, "By first releasing albums licensed back from the labels that recorded them here, we get a much quicker start. We have plans of releasing original titles that are recorded here for the label as well."

441 Records is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of quality in all aspects of the music business. They include:

• Craft of the artists & musicians
• Excellence of the recordings
• Fine artistic album graphics
• Full, national retail coverage
• Professionalism of selling records
• Ethics of business conduct

We hope listeners enjoy the music from 441 Records that was packaged with care.
