Long time no bloggie yo!
Well we’re not sure if we’re a hit yet but Starlifter is now listed on the iTunes Radio Directory under ‘Eclectic’. Not my favourite way of describing what we play but it was the closest we could get 馃檪
In other news, over the past 4 months we’ve had 3 new shows join the Starlifter Radio roster:
- Hottest Whatever with Fran, David and Lu
- Islands with Mishka
- Blue and Green with Shaun Parker
Welcome to Starship Awesome everyone!
If you’re interested in getting involved flick me a message: benet (at) starlifterradio.com
Peace, love and awesomeness!

Just added to the Starlifter Radio playlist is ‘F#@$ You Courtney!’ from ‘Custard Bear’,聽winner of the Chartfest 2010 Team Band Search. Well done lads! Here’s the hype:
“Custard Bear, a three piece from Christchurch Boys’ high school, has got it where it counts. They recently won the regional finals of Rockquest in Christchurch, and also took out the Team Band Search at Chartfest 2010, which they all agree was “pretty awesome, aye”. During breaks in between competitions they have been entertaining local ears with their savvy brand of crustic-pop, and have garnered a small hoard of fans, whom they treasure greatly. Some new sounds have been emerging from the band, which through sporadic attempts to capture on tape is set to culminate in an EP to be available later this year.”

Local electro pop-tart Ed Muzik and his band the Burning Sensations are back with more airhorns and cowbells on their latest song ‘Pump Up The Volume’. Crank this on your next d-floor! We’ve just added it to the Starlifter playlist and you can download it for yourself from: here
