For the last six years Brighton based independent label/collective Cookshop has strived to serve up a distinctly alternative menu of sounds covering everything from dub to electronica to hip hop to cinematica and beyond, refusing to bow to current trends or fashions but simply supporting the music and artists it believes in.

Following the success of the first Soundbites compilation, and after much demand for a follow up, Cookshop are pleased to present the next installment in the series, Soundbites Vol.2. This time around Cookshop label bosses La Femme and Lost Idol have not only handpicked a clutchful of tracks from themselves and resident artists Digital Midgets, Jonathan Krisp and Outerlectuals, but also looked further afield to include music from other new and inspiring artists from across the globe including names such as Boxed Roomer, Implosion Quintet, King Seven, Tom Eno, Remus and Justice & DJ Pulse, resulting in a satisfying collection that is uniquely Cookshop.
