Established in 1986, Cooking Vinyl has developed a reputation as one of Europe’s most innovative independent labels, inspiring an enviable loyalty among its artist roster in the process. Key to the company’s longevity is its emphasis on artist-driven deals with its pioneering introduction of bespoke services-only contracts that claim no stake in artists’ copyrights.
