Kindercore Records

Children Core Records is an American independent record label from Athens, Georgia and founded in 1996 by Ryan Lewis and Daniel Geller, to accommodate the growing music scene locally a forum. The first release was the compilation The Treble Revolution, which was sold out within a week. It was followed by the first single of the band Kincaid. In addition to indie and emo bands such as Vermont also influenced by hip hop acts have been contracted. With these new bands excited children Core stir in the music scene of the east coast. The label was in those early days of Emperor Norton Records financial support and was thus able to bind more distant Dressy Bessy from acts such as Denver, Call And Response from San Francisco and the British band birdie. 2002 ended Children Core cooperation with Emperor Norton Records and then cooperated with the Telegraph Company. Geller and Lewis decided to diversify their music offering even wider, and therefore took new exceptional groups under contract as Maserati, Jet By Day and Paper Lions.

The relationship between children's Core and telegraph came in October 2003, however, to an abrupt end after highly contradictory press releases alternately from Telegraph CEO Stan Hartman and children Core General Manager Jerod Gunsberg had been published on the fate of the company. The releases made ​​for large uncertainty in the music scene, as it shows that Geller and Lewis exercised only very little control over the company, which they had founded. Geller and Lewis sued then Telegraph CEO Stan Hartman and got right. As a result, they got back in control of the children's core catalog. Geller and Lewis still live in Athens. Lewis is a columnist for the Athens Banner Herald. Geller continues to make music with his band I Am The World Trade Center.
