Lost Map Records are delighted to welcome to the label one of the most maverick, cherished and unique personalities on the Glasgow DIY music scene Romeo Taylor, the off-the-wall electro-pop solo alter-ego of Taylor Stewart, whose energetic performances as drummer with acts such as Rapid Tan, Savage Mansion and Herbert Powell are the stuff of legend. His debut double A-side PostMap postcard single ‘Golden Lover’ / ‘Go Without’ will be released on February 28 as part of Lost Map’s PostMap Club subscription service (lostmap.com/club) and on all major streaming platforms.

The video for ‘Go Without’ – an addictive electro-pop journey with flashes of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, a tale of unrequited love and heart-broken determination – is available to watch and share now. Splicing together a dazzling fun-fair ride video through the early-morning streets of Glasgow with childhood home videos, it’s the perfect introduction to Romeo Taylor, whose surreal tweets @COOLJINZO furthermore offer a hilarious, intimate and occasionally disturbing window into the life and mind of a true original. A video will also follow soon for ‘Golden Lover’, an early 90s retro electro-funk party banger, all squelching synth bass and slapping drums. Think Har Mar Superstar gone Madchester.
