Jack Antonoff Announces Safe Recording Studios for LGBTQ+ Community

JACK ANTONOFF ANNOUNCES THE CREATION OF LGTB+ SAFE RECORDING STUDIOS Jack Antonoff, known worldwide as one of the best producers of the 21st century, has announced that his new professional project will be the creation of recording studios focused on the safety of the LGTBIQ+ community. 

Known for his role as the producer of some of the most successful projects of the last decade, and in the middle of his participation in Lana del Rey's new album “Lasso”, Jack Antonoff announced last Tuesday through an Instagram post that, as part of his career and using his resources and possibilities, he will take the lead in the building of spaces for vulnerable groups to embark on the artistic creation journey. 

One they haven’t always been allowed to fully enjoy due to unfair social misconceptions. Using his own experience as an example of creative enjoyment and liberty, the leader of Bleachers mentioned that, despite his love and trajectory in home and clandestine studios, his true art was born thanks to the access to recording studios, which included infinite innovative possibilities that helped him grow as an individual and as an artist. 

Based on this, he emphasized the unfairness of the discrimination imposed against minority groups in all areas, including the cultural field, which is ironically built off a high percentage of queer people who not only bring quality and diversity, but whom without the industry wouldn’t survive. Jack Antonoff is not, however, the first artist who has showed solidarity and raised awareness about the importance of equal opportunities in creative terms. And, especially, in music. 

Others like ROSALÍA have already started building recording studios in places bathed in xenophobic and discriminatory stigma, such as Hospitalet de Llobregat, a slightly isolated neighborhood in Barcelona (Spain), but filled with talent that deserves to be recognized on a global scale. In addition, and in spite of being a long-term proposal, Antonoff has taken the opportunity to mention that this will be a joint project with anyone who wishes to offer their bit and contribute to the cause, inviting everyone to contact him to build an affordable and accessible industry.
