Intakt

The label was founded in 1986 by Patrik Landolt. In the early 1980s he had co-founded Fabrikjazz, a cultural organization, with Remo Rau and pianist Irène Schweizer . "It was due to high-quality festival recordings made by Swiss Radio that Landolt was eventually inspired to start the label": he said that "Irène Schweizer was internationally known at this time, but her music wasn't well documented, [...] I decided to bring out the first recordings as LPs". The first release sold well – 2,000 copies in one month. In 2003 the 80th album was released and by mid-2013 Intakt had released more than 220.
