S6 04: April 2024 - Kinbote + more

Join PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA for an hour of Lost Map gossip, excruciating Madonna raps, and anti-monarchy ranting. Oh, there’s also some music ... from VICTORIA HUME, LOST MAP presents WEIRD WAVE, plus a taste of some PostMap Club tunes from SUSAN BEAR, AFTERLANDS and a live session from SULKA.

Our featured interview this month is with MATT GIBB of KINBOTE, who talks us through the making of his second album for Lost Map, HEMISPHERE.

S5 12: December 2023 - Two White Cranes + more

Our last pod o’ the year finds LAURA and PICTISH TRAIL in relatively festive fettle, with a product endorsement for Lidl’s own-brand stollen, and even some discussion about actual music.

It’s the “season finale” of series 5! Join PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA for another hour of LOST MAP goodness, including a sneaky peek at all the new music we’re releasing through our POSTMAP CLUB. We’ve got the first single from a fresh signing called AFTERLANDS; a live session track from MARTHA FFION; and a taste of the forthcoming album from SAVAGE MANSION. We’ve also got information on our December events in London and Edinburgh, as well as an archive track from the mad-cap musical inventor, ICHI.

Our featured interview this month is with Roxy Brennan, aka TWO WHITE CRANES, who talks us through her life in music, the various scenes she’s been a part of in Bristol, Oxford and Brighton, as well as a deep dive on her brand new album - Self Build - which is out NOW on limited edition CD.

There’s also a special edition of FIRST GIG WORST GIG, featuring Emma Daman Thomas from the band ISLET - who reports on her tween BritPop fantasies, and reveals the perils of early-00’s fashion for drummers.

S5 11: November 2023

Join hosts PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA for another hour of Lost Map goodness, including (not due to popular demand, or indeed any sort of demand) a reboot of long-lost regular feature, First Gig Worst Gig.

It’s November, the nights are fair drawing in, and LAURA reckons it's the start of winter already. PICTISH TRAIL is still in a summery mood, and tries to pay Laura a compliment on her hair - but ends up talking about his own greasy locks for possibly too many minutes. Thankfully there’s some new music to keep you entertained - the obligatory track from LOST MAP PRESENTS WEIRD WAVE, an archive track from EAGLEOWL, as well as some new music on PostMap Club from TWO WHITE CRANES, VICTORIA HUME and SUSAN BEAR.

There’s no featured interview this month, but we have resurrected an ol’ fave - FIRST GIG WORST GIG, in which artists tell us about the first gig they attended as a punter, and the very worst gig they’ve ever played themselves. It’s a bumper edition of the segment, with confessions from both SEAMUS FOGARTY and ALEXIA AVINA, who conveniently have new releases out this month on vinyl. PLUG PLUG PLUG.

Incredibly, this is the 50th episode of the Lost Map Podcast. We’ve only just realised this, while writing these show-notes… so there’s no actual mention of it in the episode. Thought you might wanna know anyway. Are you even reading this bit?

Our featured interview this month is with Glasgow-based songwriter & guitarist, Lukas Clasen, aka SULKA - whose brand new album, Distractions, has just come out on vinyl. He talks us through how the band came together, the making of the album, and the stories behind the songs.

S5 09: September 2023 - Ten Years Of Lost Map, Part 2

In possibly their most “method” episode yet, established actors PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA accurately portray the overwhelming sense of hangover from last month’s 10th ANNIVERSARY shows. They should win a Podcast Oscar, if such a thing exists.

Somehow PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA have survived Lost Map’s busiest month, celebrating the label’s official 10th anniversary. But if you thought all the milk had run dry from our birthday celebrations … well, you were probably right … but we’re still squeezing the udders for one final dusty spray of cherished memories.

There’s chat about all the fun times had at HOWLIN’ FLING!, and our experiences at GREEN MAN festival, as well as a trip down memory lane, playing our fave tracks of the past ten years by MANUELA and TUFF LOVE.

We’ve also got brand NEW tunes from our PostMap Club - including the second single from LOST MAP presents WEIRD WAVE, the return of SEAMUS FOGARTY, plus a fresh cut from SULKA’s forthcoming album Distractions.

Once again, PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA have convened via the internet, to tell you all about the latest releases from Lost Map.

This month’s interview is with Glasgow acid-pop gurus, Suzi & Lewis, aka FREE LOVE, who talks us through the making of their new album, Inside - which is out now on limited edition pink vinyl, as well as a special Dinked Edition from participating record shops.

S5 02: February 2023 - L.T. Leif + Hairband + more

It’s the first day of a new month, which means PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA are in their jammies, and ready to pod. On today’s episode, there are fresh tunes from CLÉMENTINE MARCH, SDF, and FREE LOVE to enjoy, as well as information about a brand new signing to the label roster, HAIRBAND … but first they had to make sure they expressed their opinions on the disgusting instagram advert and accompanying tour ticket prices by MADONNA. What an absolute disgrace.

This month’s interview is with Canadian songsmith L.T. LEIF, who talks us through their life in music, their move to Glasgow and the making of their new album, Come Back To Me, But Lightly - which was released late-January 2023 on limited edition vinyl via Lost Map, in association with our good friends OK Pal Records.

S5 01: January 2023 - Your New Year Mega-Mix Work Out Tape

If you spent all of 2022 in a coma, don’t worry - PICTISH TRAIL can bring you up to speed on everything you’ve missed. Except Eastenders, he didn’t watch any of that. Actually, he did watch the Xmas Special, but he wasn’t 100% sure of what was going on.

Singer-songwriter PICTISH TRAIL runs the independent record label and collective LOST MAP from his home, on the Isle of Eigg, Scotland. Join him for the next 72 minutes, as he runs through a choice selection of tracks from the label catalogue over the past 12 months, as well as some spins of brand new “as yet unreleased" material. The perfect soundtrack for your New Year / New You fitness regime work-out … in so far as it starts out quite energetic, and then gets a bit wheezy, slightly trippy, and then blissed out. By which point you’ll thoroughly deserve a cup of tea and the remaining segments of that Terry’s Chocolate Orange you got for Xmas.

Oh there’s some gossip about Howlin’ Fling!, too. You’ll have to listen to find out, mind.

Reunited via the internet, PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA chat through all this month’s releases on Lost Map, including a VISITATIONS EP from ALLIYAH ENYO, new music from FELL and FREE LOVE, and some ol’ classics from BALLBOY.

After a couple of months of touring and cavorting with middle-aged alt-rock heroes, PICTISH TRAIL has returned to Eigg, and realises that the Lost Map admin pile has gone out of control. Thankfully LAURA is on-hand, via internet connection from Edinburgh, to sort through this month’s releases on PostMap Club, and our upcoming live music events.

Our featured interview this month is with ALLIYAH ENYO, a multi-disciplinary artist from Edinburgh, who came up to stay in St Franny’s Bothan on Eigg in May of 2022 to take part in our VISITATIONS residency project. She chats to us about her life in music, her debut album release for Somewhere Between Tapes, her performance at Hidden Door Festival, as well as her experience on Eigg.

Also this month … we’ve got a taste of new music from FREE LOVE; an as-yet-unreleased album track from FELL; something from the vaults by BALLBOY; as well as news on a variety of upcoming label showcases - including two shows in December for DAYLIGHT MUSIC, the line-up for our HUMBUG! events in Glasgow and Edinburgh, plus info on the first of many "10th Anniversary" shows for 2023.

S4 08: September 2022 - VISITATIONS - Makeness

Join PICTISH TRAIL and his good pal LAURA for an hour of music and chat about all things LOST MAP, including an interview with electronic producers MAKENESS about their trip to the Isle of Eigg...

The summer is suddenly fizzling out, and so it’s back to school for PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA. There’s a run through of PICTISH TRAIL’s TOP 5 MOMENTS OF GREEN MAN FESTIVAL, which - surprise surprise - are mostly about his own performances. There’s some daft chat about Little Boots, Hot Shots Part Deux, and a very special cameo for the regular PostMap Club spiel. On top of all this, there's a taste of brand new music from MARANTA and ALEXIA AVINA, as well as some gig news and album tracks from SUSAN BEAR and DELIFINGER.

Our third series of our artist residency programme, VISITATIONS, continues with a release from London-based electronic maestros, MAKENESS, the project of London-based producer and performer Kyle Molleson and friends. Kyle journeyed up to the Isle of Eigg in February 2022, accompanied by his bandmate Gus Beamish-Cook, where they spent a week in St Franny’s Bothan writing and recording brand new material - which PostMap Club members can listen to, exclusively, in full. In this episode of the podcast, we caught up with Kyle and Gus at their local skate park, where they talk us through their life in music, and the experience they had recording on the island, featuring clips of the truly banging tracks they made together.
