PICTISH TRAIL and LAURA catch up ahead of the forthcoming LOST MAP SUMMER PARTY in Glasgow, sharing the excitement (and mild panic) of putting together one of the label's biggest events of the year. Along the way, there's brand new music from DOVETAILED, FIRESTATIONS, and SULKA, plus all the usual PostMap Club chat.

This month's featured interview sees Lost Map's MALCOLM JACK in conversation with MANUELA about the making of her beautiful new album Ultraviolet, out now on Lost Map. They discuss the songwriting process, bringing the record to life in the studio, and, naturally, those unforgettable press photos featuring “Sarvan" the war-horse.
