Qualle 19 – Tender Matter

Viennese music label focusing on works of queer and gender non conforming artists

This episode of Qualle19 is all about the Label Tender Matter, funded in 2020 in Vienna, which focuses on the works of queer and gender non confoming artists in electronic music.
Mel and Tony, who run the Music Label Tender Matter, talked with Lena/Lens about funding a Label, selfpublishing music aswell as organizing and running the event series „The Future“. They further shared some practical knowledge on running a label or approaching one as an artist.
This episode was recorded with one of the commonly known videoconferencing tools.
Soundquality therefore corresponds with the recording medium.
