At the beginning Cadenza was supposed to be a short endeavor, a platform for releasing only a few tracks. Because of the huge success of their first EP with the track “Orange Mistake,” Luciano and Quenum decided to carry on running the label. Currently there are approximately ten people working the day-to-day operations in conjunction with Luciano. His sister continues to do all the graphics for the label. Cadenza Lab records was created as the label’s digital offshoot.
