Yay The Klap! What? Starlifter.TV… WTF??? Podomatic… Fully WTF???

Posted on by Dr Hitchcock

 

The Klap – YouTube

First up congrats to The Klap for taking out RDU’s RounD-Up band competition for 2008. They put on a great performance in the final. As part of the prize pack they won they’ve already recorded a song and shot a music video (above). Download the song “not getting younger” here (right click and select “save link as”).

You may have notice that I’ve change the name of the blog to Starlifter.TV. Just a slight change and I’m hoping to do a lot more video (hence the .TV).

I’ve just started a new podcast on Podomatic.com called Starlifter.TV (original huh). You can find it at http://starliftertv.podomatic.com.The first episode features my latest DJ mix, Music To Raise Children to – Vol. 2. I’m hoping to put up a whole bunch of different stuff, interviews with musos, the odd jam from my band the Electro Pussy Posse (EPP), DJ mixes and random sound art guff. So yeah, it’s gonna be interesting. I hope you enjoy it. And if you ever wanna get in touch just flick me an email mixtapesessions (at) gmail (dot) com.

Peace,
Dr H
