Aphesis Records

Aphesis Records is a music production company with a Christian foundation. The name Aphesis comes from the Greek word ἄφεσις, meaning ”freedom from bondage” – a reflection of our vision: to communicate hope, freedom, and truth through music.

The name Aphesis originates from the Greek word ἄφεσις, which means freedom, forgiveness, or release – or as we express it: freedom from bondage. It’s a word that runs deep through the message of the New Testament – a word that Jesus Himself used when He said He had come ”to set the captives free” (Luke 4:18).

In the Bible, Aphesis is used to describe the forgiveness of sins, a broken yoke, and a new beginning. It speaks of God’s grace – not as a concept, but as a power that truly sets people free. The word appears 17 times in the New Testament, and each time carries the same powerful message: that God not only wants to forgive but also to liberate.

Aphesis Records is built on that very heart – to communicate the freedom we have experienced ourselves through music, stories, and creativity. We believe that true art is born out of true freedom, and that every voice set free has something important to say. That’s why our vision is simple yet profound: to connect, create, and carry forward the freedom we have found in Jesus.

We dream of building a platform where artists with a heart for truth and freedom can grow, flourish, and reach out. A place where music doesn’t just sound good – but makes a difference. A place for change and renewal. Where creativity goes hand in hand with support, learning, and growth – rooted in a Christian foundation and driven by a longing to see people healed, restored, and sent out.

We believe in freedom over facade. In honesty over image. In art that heals – not just entertains.

We believe in standing in the light without needing to steal it. That the spotlight is not meant to lift up a star – but to point the way to something greater. We believe in serving before being seen, and that the greatest artist is the one who dares to bow before the Lord our God, Jesus Christ, in order to lift others up. Jesus said: ”Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.” (Matthew 20:26)

That is the heart of Aphesis Records. We want to create a culture where every creative voice doesn’t just ask ”how high can I climb?” – but ”how deeply can I love?”. Where artists are not only lifted up – but equipped, guided, and sent out to serve through their gifts.

We believe in the power of creativity that comes from community and purpose. Our slogan Connect to Create is about building relationships and creating music with meaning – not just for entertainment, but to touch, uplift, inspire, change, and renew. It’s our pulse. We build relationships, we build sound. Not for hype – but for the heart.

Through hip-hop, RnB, and soul, we want to give voice to stories of transformation, faith, and vulnerability. Aphesis Records is more than a record label – it’s a movement for honest and hope-filled music, rooted in a deeper reality.

Aphesis Records is the voice for the silenced. The music for those seeking meaning. A place where God’s light meets life’s darkness – and where freedom gets a soundtrack.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out – whether it’s for prayer over your creativity, collaboration, or becoming part of the movement. Do you want to be part of creating something meaningful? Connect to create with us at Aphesis Records.
