Hey peeps!
WOW! My first set and official radio show for quite a long time, it’s been fun! This is also the first official set for my new show on 8K.NZ. Starlifter.TV streams every Thursday night from 8PM NZST on https://8k.nz.
It’s great to have some of my favourite electronic artists from the 90s with new albums to play out. This set features hotness from Underworld, Chemical Brothers, Tiga, The Dandy Warhols and of course, Bowie. Rest in peace Thin White Duke.
Enjoy!

What crazy times we live in! UK #Brexited, #Drumpf is leading the Republicans and I’m starting another internet radio station! A whole bunch of my Christchurch based mates are joining me in setting up a new thang called 8k.nz.
8k is a Christchurch centric, democratically driven and community focused internet radio station. It’s basically a whole bunch of our friends coming together and making a raucous sound. We’re not trying to change the world, become your new favourite thing or trying to figure out what you’re into so we can sell you more shit you don’t need; we’re just having fun. 8k is a place for us to experiment, to try things you can’t do on FM. The technology is there and it’s cheap so why not?!
I have a weekly show everything Thursday night from 8pm so stream with me for the latest.
And don’t worry, I’ll still be doing Starlifter Radio but it’s just much nicer playing with others huh 😉
This is Dr Hitchcock reminding you to…
Trust your TechnoLust.
Hey Mixtapers,
Well apparently it’s been a decade since I threw my first gig and club night. The Mixtape Connection was a monthly club night riding high on the indie dance rock vibe that was being driven by the likes of DFA Records and LCD Soundsystem. There were plenty of bands playing around Christchurch at the time but not many rock’n’roll DJs. Richard MacFarlane, Missy G, Bill (Indie Slut) and myself decided to change that and throw our own party at Capitol Bar. It ran every month for a year and a half and it was fun while it lasted. Since then we’re thrown on average a party a year. Missy G plays around Christchurch ALL THE TIME and Bill ran another club night called the Nu Trend with Daniel Millar (Tobiaz) and Annie Kean. The Mixtape Connection was a real launchpad for me and the rest of the crew, it helped us hone our DJing skills and get our names out there. Since then I’ve lived in Melbourne twice and played parties on both sides of the Tasman and at some big festivals.
We also put out a CD of Christchurch music..
This is NOT the Christchurch sound – Vol. 1 by Starlifter Radio on Mixcloud
I’d like to thank all the party peeps and everyone else who got involved with the parties over the years. For those still in town hopefully we’ll see you at Smashies! Also, many thanks to Brian Feary from Melted Ice Cream for the work on the gig flyer.
So come on down to Smash Palace on High Street to see the return of Christchurch’s most notorious scene elders for one night only of Rock, Brit-Pop, 80s, Electro-Clash, and whatever Missy G is gonna play, probably John B ;D
