Sketches from an Island 2 is the second studio album of British producer Mark Barrott, released on 1 July 2016 by the International Feel label.

[2] In the winter of 2016, he got rid of the equipment he bought and only used a slide guitar, a small-sized MIDI keyboard and a laptop for making his next album as he did in producing Sketches from an Island.

[2] Labeled by a reviewer for NPR Music as a "soundtrack to nature as a psychedelic trip",[3] Sketches from an Island 2 is a balearic downtempo record with more of a "relaxed mood" than its predecessor, according to Resident Advisor.

[5] He wrote that "Forgotten Island" and "One Slow Thought", the album's final two cuts, were the most "evocative" works in Barrott's discography to date.

[5] The Arts Desk and the Financial Times spotlighted Sketches from an Island 2's "rich" combination of genres;[6][7] "Der Stern, Der Nie Vergeht" (English: “the star that never fades”) is an ambient krautrock track, its instrumentation consisting of a talking drum, a fretless bass guitar, and a digital synthesizer lead melody that mimics an analog synth texture.

Allmusic journalist Timothy Monger wrote that it had "enchanting, easily digestible rhythmic soundscapes that recall the golden era of pre-gift shop new age music" at best, but also contained tracks like "Brunch with Suki" and "Driving to Cap Negret" that "feel a bit more like Ibeza hangover helpers and pass by without much notice" at worst.

[4] The Arts Desk reviewer Barney Harsent suggested Barrott's previous experiences living in places other than Ibiza, such as Germany, France and Uruguay, strongly contributed to the quality of the album.
