FREE LOVE, cosmic duo Suzi Rodden and Lewis Cook, are a couple whose pulsating psychedelic odysseys have been emanating from Glasgow since 2013, via esteemed labels Night School, and the Optimo imprint, So Low. Formerly operating under the name Happy Meals, their transformation into Free Love is now complete, where hi-NRG Italo disco and 90s rave-pop thrills complement the undulating drones of their sonic and yogic experimentalism.
They beamed down to the island in late September, just as the summer’s sun was beginning to set, and created this concept EP about being abducted by aliens. Analogue synths and drum machines come to life, taking possession of Free Love’s bodies, and creating a truly intergalactic entity. “Set the controls for the sun of your heart”.
Recorded at Sweeney’s Bothy, on the Isle of Eigg, 26th September - 3rd October 2017.

PODCAST INTERVIEW
The Lost Map Podcast is presented by Pictish Trail, produced and edited by Joe Cormack.
In part 1, Pictish Trail chats with the second participant in our VISITATIONS project - Glasgow’s FREE LOVE (formerly known as Happy Meals).
This initial interview was conducted in early-October 2017, during Free Love's residency on the Isle of Eigg - where we discuss their first experiences with music, go into quite an in-depth conversation about how music is taught in schools, and have a general discussion about Carl Jung, James Holden and Slipknot. All bases covered!
