The Musetrap half of Musetrap And The Laird is Musetrap Baroque Laboratories, a sound production house hidden away in the Australian bush . . . somewhere.
Little is known of Musetrap Baroque Laboratories or the person or people behind it. Is it one studio, or a collective of like minded sound engineers? All communication arrives via a generic Musetrap, whether this is a person or the organisation is unknown.
The Laird, who works with this Musetrap, has little to say on the subject. “You’ll know about Musetrap what Musetrap wants you to know about Musetrap”, he tells any who ask. There is speculation that The Laird doesn’t know any more than anyone else.
What is known is Musetrap composes and plays all the music and edits and produces the podcast. It could be said they do nearly all the work, while The Laird is a bit of a show pony. The Laird does not deny this. “I send Musetrap a story and a show comes back”, he says, without shame.
You can contact Musetrap Baroque Laboratories via the podcast e mail address: musetrapandthelaird@gmail.com.
