Courtney Taylor-Taylor and Dr H backstage at Southern Amp 08 – SLTV#06 [Podcast]

 

Here’s a little snippet that for some reason I left off the Southern Amp 08 (SAMP08) edisode of my podcast (?). I managed to score a one-on-one chat with Courtney in the Dandys changing room just before their set at Southern Amp 08.

:: Dr H

Paris, here! [PARTY]

 

NOTE: The “Paris, here!” gigs for February have been cancelled. The initial venue fell through and Dr H has had some interesting developements in his life of late which are taking up quite a bit of his time.

 

Hey party peeps!

Before Summer runs away I thought I’d throw a cute little weekly thing at this new venue, Kreation. It’s a night loosly based around French, Melbourne and Sydney electro, techno and minimal.  Nothing massive, just rad peeps hangin’ out, having a great time and laxing over choice beats.

It is R18 and BYO booze but don’t get too silly on it, eh.

Also, if you know of anyone keen to play some tunes flick me a msg.

Peace,
Dr H

Dr Hitchcock – Too Much Code

It’s funny what you find when you visit your parents house…

I am currently making my annual visit back home to see my family in Stratford, Taranaki. I’m here for a week or so and I was checking out my 14 year old brothers CDs. Samuel has just turned 14 and is a rad little dude. Anyways, I stumbled across a CD I gave him a few Christmas’ back and found a whole bunch of my material on it from when I was studying at MAINZ in 2006. One of my favourite songs called “too much code” was on this magical CD and I love it! Let me know what you think!

The image above is from my friend Cam’s camera. It’s the result of a corrupt SD memory card. Choice huh!
