Manolo López shared thisHappy 40th Cooking Vinyl 🎂Manolo López shared thisToday, we’re incredibly proud to celebrate 40 years of Cooking Vinyl. Since 1986, we’ve believed in doing things differently: working with artists we believe in, backing every release and putting independence, partnership and creative freedom at the heart of what we do. Over four decades, we’ve had the privilege of working with an extraordinary range of artists across a wide array of genres. The music industry has changed enormously since we started, but our ethos remains the same: an independent label for independently minded artists. Now partnered withExceleration Music and distributing via Redeye Worldwide, we are very excited to welcome a new chapter for Cooking Vinyl and our talented roster. To celebrate 40 years of Cooking Vinyl, we’ve picked 40 tracks from across the Cooking Vinyl story. Listen to 40 Years of Cooking Vinyl: CV.lnk.to/40play A huge thank you to every artist, team member, partner and music fan who has been part of the journey so far.

Manolo López reacted on thisManolo López reacted on this7 years today at Sony Music Entertainment 🫣 🤩 7 years of absolute joy working with some incredible people. When I walked through the doors as a 23 year old, drum and bass obsessed chatterbox, I never thought for one second that my career would look it does today. The gaps in my knowledge were huge, but they soon got filled as I started to learn about everything and everyone. Working in the music business is the absolute dream and my 12 year old self who thought she was going to be a superstar DJ would be so pleased knowing I work for a major record label 😆 Here's to the next 7 Sony Music! 🤝
