S4 06: July 2022 - Gordon McIntyre, SDF + more

We’re half-way through the year, normally a time to take stock, and ruminate over the delights of the past 6 months, while sipping a colourful cocktail, drifting across an outdoor swimming pool on a lilo, wearing only a thong. PICTISH TRAIL doesn’t have time for any of that, mind you. He’s struggling to remember how to erect the food marquee for the upcoming ISLAND FAMILY GATHERING event happening on Eigg this weekend, and has used up all his mobile data perusing unhelpful instructional videos. As such, he’s been unable to have a web-chat with his usual co-host, LAURA. She has managed to send over a lo-fi recording via dial-up, mind you.GORDON McINTYRE is our featured interview this month, talking us through his songwriting process, and the making of his brand new solo LP, Even With The Support Of Others - which is out on LP on July 15th.As well as all that, we've got music and tour news from BAS JAN and ALEXIA AVINA, some PostMap Club sounds from a mysterious London-based electronic collective known simply as SDF, plus a full run-down of all the different acts playing at the Island Family Gathering.To support Lost Map, and to help us release more music in 2022, join our PostMap Club.
