This week on StarlifterRadio.com – new Cassius… YES!

Well StarlifterRadio.com is totally krunking and playing the baddest mean-styles this galaxy has ever heard. So if you haven’t tuned in yet, get to it yo! This week we have new songs from Cassius, Beni, Midnight Juggernauts, Two Door Cinema Club, Love of Diagrams, Von Klap and Sleepy Age. Classic tracks in the mix this week are tunes from Phoenix, Joy Division, and The Fastbacks. To celebrate Elston Gun coming to play in Christchurch this Friday we have their song chaperone in the mix, as well as tracks from the support acts Pikachunes and T54. And if you haven’t heard the first songs released in the Digitape Singles Club you can hear them on StarlifterRadio.com as well, Side A is the Wundercastle remix of beautiful by Ghostape and Side B is the 1996 live recording of beatrice by Christchurch grunge/punk/rock band Flower.

So that’s what is going down on the old StarlifterRadio.com at the mo. I hope you do enjoy what’s on offer and if there is anything you’d like to hear or if you’d like to contribute just flick me a message drh (at) starlifter.tv

PS I just finished watching a new sci-fi called Mutant Chronicles… DON’T! Just don’t waste your time, even if you are a sci-fi fan. If I realised that it was a movie made about a computer game I wouldn’t have hired it.
