Lost Map

POSTMAP CLUB // MAY 2026 Synth pop, shoegaze and dream pop - this month's #PostMap club is a meticulous collection of indie in its various forms, and smothered in beautiful reverb. Featuring two familiar Lost Map faves, and introducing a brand new act to the label, with their very first release. ✨ @firestationsband - 'An Apparition' - The triumphant return of Walthamstow's finest. Following the intimate, folk-inflected 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘞𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘴, which was largely written and recorded by frontman Michael Cranny, the full band return with a insistent synth pop banger. ✨ @_sulka - 'Meteorite' - the latest single from the Glasgow-based indie rock outifit led by the prodigiously talented songwriter Lukas Clasen. From the upcoming album 𝘉𝘶𝘵𝘦, which we're releasing on 17th July. ✨ @dovetailedband - 'Kitchen' - debut single from a brand new project that combines the innumerable talents of Kim Grant (aka Raveloe), and Simon Liddell (known from some of the pillars of the Scottish indie scene - Olympic Swimmers, Frightened Rabbit, Poster Paints). 'Kitchen' takes a more ethereal route than some of those other projects - all reverb-soaked textures and soft, intimate details, like you’re somehow inside the song as it unfolds. Headphones on, eyes closed. When you sign up to our #PostMap club you get all of this month's releases PLUS last month's releases too. Plus a whole bundle of extras - a regular newsletter, a pin badge, a Club Classics compilation CD, access to our Lost Map portal and discount in our webshop and bandcamp. Join today from as little as £3 a month. ⛵ lostmap.com/club

🫠✨💙 some news about life slime vinyl 🩷✨🫠 I’ve got some more things that are gonna go up on my webshop, but I’ve not got that ready yet. Ok? Ok.

@painting_band are a band constantly at play, and always exploring new possibilities in their sound. For the new EP they took four tracks from their recent album 𝘚𝘯𝘢𝘱𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, and offered them up to four of their favourite new acts to rework, remix and reform as they see fit. The result is an incisive and urgent collection and the ideal companion piece to 𝘚𝘯𝘢𝘱𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. Featuring contributions from @bothhands_music , @eera_official , @oh_no_noh and @qrauer .

A little flashback of @oh_no_noh ‘s mysterious WYWAYWG remix. The whole Remix EP is out now, link in bio 🖇️🔮

Whether 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘱𝘴 was your introduction to majestic artistry of @seamusfog , or you've been aware of his work since the fabled days of the debut album 𝘎𝘰𝘥 𝘋𝘢𝘮𝘯 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘔𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 (colour vinyl reissue still available) - it's hard to tell if anyone really *knows* Seamus Fogarty. He's like an enigma wrapped in a mystery. Wrapped in a bloody good songwriter. Helpfully though he has answered some questions for us to try and make a start at unwrapping that mystery. See what you think. Get a little closer to the mystery. Seamus is playing all over the UK and Ireland throughout the summer. Check seamusfogarty.com/shows for details. Shows this week: 14th May Birmingham Hare & Hounds 2 @thisistmrw 15th May Wendover Legion Club @realmagicbooks 16th May Oxfordshire Wood Festival @woodhq 🎨 @davidgalletly
