My guest for Episode 202 of Lost In Sound is Tiga, and I have to say I think it’s an all-time classic episode.

As a one-person portal into rave history, as a child Tiga would help his DJ dad organize cassettes for playing on the beach at very early Goa raves. He set up Canada’s first major rave and then, in the early millennium, reached an international audience through wearing his sunglasses at night. In 2026, Tiga – festival mainstay, label owner, collaborator with Hudson Mohawke and FCUKERS – is one of dance music’s real characters.

We dived deep, tackling subjects like playfulness vs. humor, surviving chronic illness, flow state, and I think a genuinely considerable re-appraisal of INXS.

One Monday morning a little while back, during the depths of winter, I sat down for scrambled eggs with one of Berlin’s biggest, yet least typical DJs – Marlon Hoffstadt aka DJ Daddy Trance

You can read the full Mixmag cover story online now. Link in my bio.

I loved writing this up. He’s a super interesting guy. On one hand, he plays these big, brash, hands-in-the-air sets and makes fluro-bright trance-tinged pop bangers; yet at the same time, through talking with him he seems to have more principles than most of your more aesthetically typical underground male DJs.

We covered some big topics: addiction recovery, Berlin gentrification, gender imbalance, and taking a pragmatic approach to success.

A huge thanks to Two Trick Pony for the delicious brunch.

Anastasia Kristensen .kristensen is my guest for Episode 201 of Lost and Sound.

From main room club sets to making anthropomorphic and convention-defying music on her new album, we got into a frank and open conversation about what success doesn’t prepare you for, online crate digging as an act of resistance, maintaining a creative flow and lots, lots more.

Here it is – Episode 200 of Lost and Sound!

If you’re a regular listener, you’ll know I love a food analogy, so it was great talking with DJ, musician and chef Yu Su

From polyphonic eating to a musical palette nurtured through Debussy to tech house, and a life that moves from Kaifeng to Vancouver to London, Yu Su reflects on the influences and thought processes that lead to her textured, experimental and dub-fused melodic electronics.

José González .gonz.music is my guest for Episode 199 of Lost and Sound.

Over a billion streams, but quietly making music that asks big questions. José draws on his hardcore punk background and training in biochemistry to sneak serious political observations into his woody, dreamy acoustics.

We met up in person at the Michelberger Hotel in Berlin and had a deep, long chat about science, dogmatism, AI and, of course, the music too.

Sometimes I’ll be speaking to someone whose music has featured through the soundtrack of my life. Alexis Taylor – him of the honey-sweet vocals and deep record-collector knowledge – joined me for episode 198 of Lost and Sound.

Juggling 25 years of Hot Chip .chip with his seventh solo album (recorded in Paris at Nicolas Godin from Air’s studio) – we got deep about balancing songwriting with production. We ask – what makes a good cover? What makes what you do authentic? As you might guess from Taylor’s deep music knowledge – he brings in examples from Royal Trux, The Beastie Boys, Basic Channel and Barry Manilow to illustrate this. Lots of fun, deep dive.

Green-House are my guests on episode 197 of Lost and Sound.

The LA-based duo draw on nature and the human condition to create music rooted in ambient in spirit — but with political teeth and a touch of library music energy. We get into the context of labels like New Age and ambient, the politics of nature, the darkness of Hollywood, and why The Beatles and The Beach Boys can be framed as electronic innovators.

UFO95 is my guest for episode 196 of Lost and Sound

From Parisian punk roots to playing live techno at Tresor, UFO95 designs functional, minimal, otherworldly music that pays homage to brutalist architecture and Techno’s Detroit pioneers. We talk machines, cities, mistakes and being mainstream-averse.

Nathan Fake is my guest on episode 195 of Lost and Sound.

From early releases on James Holden’s Border Community to more recent and expansive works, Fake occupies a unique space in UK electronic music, combining club crunch with bucolic touches. We had a chat about his love of old gear (don’t worry, it’s not a gear chat at heart) and how his music has always lived in some slightly outsider realm.

Ambient Americana with free jazz roots and a European sensibility. My guest this week, Jason Dungen, is a Texan living in Copenhagen, and he makes entrancing music as Blue Lake

Listen wherever you get your podcasts or via the link in my bio.

Over a run of albums and performances in the last few years on , Blue Lake have been making instrumental music that manages to be meditative without ever lurching into namaste-dolphin territory, drawing philosophical inspiration from Don Cherry and hardcore bands in his approach to working with space, community, and the raw potential of a DIY approach.

This week on Lost and Sound, I spoke with Eric Pulido, frontman of Texan myth-makers Midlake


Listen via your favorite podcast app or through the link im my bio.

Midlake burst onto the scene with the stone-cold classic The Trials Of Van Occupanther, and for a lot of people with a certain noughties adjasent background, my self included, the record’s mix of West Coast folk rock and bygone lore became a soundtrack. Now, with their sixth studio album just out, the band’s frontman Eric Pulido shared some wise and reflective words with me on surviving the distance, musical rebirth, and honing a sound.

About Lost And Sound

Lost And Sound is a podcast that goes deep into the personal stories of people behind the world’s most exciting underground music. Going on a journey to uncover how people come together through music, meeting honing in on cultural hotspots Berlin, Kyiv and now, with the third season, across the world.

Over a mixture of interview, narrative and field recordings, writer Paul Hanford meets artists from a range of disciplines whose lives and loves draw on music, exploring themes such as the connection between music, cities and identity and now, in the third season, how music can play a role in our lives now and in the future: through dance, AI, slowness, collectivity and beyond
