Hey yo! My friends Adelle & Anikin are a throwing a rad and freaky Electro night down at Concrete Club pretty soon in the 03 and it’ll be a party worth shakin’ down to.

In town for the party is Melbourne based Samari (luxxeparty.com), he plays tunes a cross section of tunes somewhere between Boys Noize, Mr. Oizo, the sounds of Baltimore, future funk and electro. Here’s one of his latest mixes: http://soundcloud.com/samari/samaris-sun-burn-mix

Kyle Bourke will be down from Auckland, he is the main producer/songwriter for the live DJ group Future Resonance and has remixed tunes from Kids of 88, Boh Runga, Kidz of Space and Elektrik Disko.

Another local lad will be crankin’ tunes as well, Fil Alexander. In 2009 he was signed to electro giant, Plasmapool Records, and his first release “New York Shit” received rave reviews on trackitdown.net. Be sure to catch this party peep! To hear his latest track visit: http://soundcloud.com/fil-alexander/fil-alexander-the-uplifter

So be sure to get down to The Concrete Club on Friday 19th of Feb. It’s only $5 on the door.

Peace,
Dr H

Tiger Tones – one of the most signifigant bands in CHCH since Shocking Pinks is doing the pilgrimage to AK/NZ. Who can blame them, AK is a rad city. Pikachunes is also making the move too. Sadness all round
So anyways, this Friday at Double Happy is your second to last chance to see them jam before their mighty trek. I’ll also be spinning some tunes at the start of the night. Come on down and hang yo. It’s $10 on the door and tunes start at 10pm. To get you in the mood here is their latest single ’short thing’

MP3: Tiger Tones – short thing

Peace,

WOAH! 2010 has been well busy for this Doctor! You may have noticed that the Starlifter has been a bit quiet for the past month or so. Not only has it been Christmas and New Years but I also got married to my lovely lady, Claire Vivian aka DJ Apex Beat, about a week or so ago. MAD CRAZY AWESOMENESS.

I’ve got a feeling about 2010. Technology is gettin’ better and most radical (Apple iPad), music is bound to do some funky freaky things (Tiger Tones) and it just all feels good. Over the past month or so I’ve been thinking about Starlifter.TV HEAPS. I’m so grateful for the all the love and support from all the contributors, the wider music community and you the Starlifter.TV community. I’m in the process of refining what this crazy little spaceship is all about so if there’s anything you’ve really enjoyed or you think we could do better why not leave a comment below. Or even better if you wanna contribute to Starlifter.TV flick me a message about what you’d be interested in doing twitter: @starlifter or email: drh (at) starlifter.tv

Mad love, peace and bamboo,
:: Dr H xoxox
