What happens when you build a record label around a single idea—and commit to it for years?
This week I’m joined by Spencer Zahn, founder of Sudden Quarterly, one of the most thoughtfully designed new labels I’ve come across.
🚨 Presented by HELLBENDER VINYL – http://hellbendervinyl.com
Every year follows a different creative theme. Every release is visually connected. Every record is a brand-new collaboration between artists who have never made an album together before.
We dive deep into why constraints can actually create more freedom, how Spencer plans years in advance, the challenge of balancing artistic vision with sustainability, and why he believes record labels should be experiences—not just distribution companies.

"Playlisting Is Not Your Answer" — un:hurd Founder Answers Artist Questions | f:nd your frequency
200,000 artists have signed up to un:hurd. Alex Brees, the founder, has seen what the ones who grow do differently from the ones who stay invisible. In this episode, Sam (Head of Growth) puts Alex in the hot seat and the community asks the questions.
Alex breaks down why playlisting is part of the strategy but not the strategy, the 3 things that separate artists who grow from those who don’t, why chasing a million streams might be the wrong goal when £30,000 from a loyal community is the real career, why artists in developing markets have an advantage most don’t realise, and why the journey taking 5 to 10 years is actually a great filter.
Questions from Oisin Murphy (@oisinmurphy_09), BECKO (@becko_records), Luke / In Pools (@in.pools), Hway (@adrianhway), TheEnough (@theenough_official), and The K.I.J Experience (@thekijexp334578).
The podcast about building an audience from zero. Every week, un:hurd music founder Alex Brees talks to artists, founders, and investors who’ve built something from nothing. If you’re an independent artist trying to grow, this show is for you.
