Dr Hitchcock’s 39th Birthday Party | Starlifter.TV

Sophia sitting under the DJ decks making a nest

Last Sunday I had a blast hanging with old friends and playing tunes at my 39th birthday party. The first half is rock, the second half electronic. It seems to be a bit of a trend at the mo.

Sophia made a little nest under the DJ deck with snacks and her cape, not unlike what her mother used to do 15 years ago.

A Beautiful Woman | Starlifter.TV

Album covers of Soft Hair, Agar Agar and Deradoorian.

On this show I give you a downbeat indie-tronic offering. From the tounge-in-cheek slow jams of Connan Mockasin, to the synthwave of Agar Agar, through the live instrumentation of Metronomy’s Mightnight Juggernauts remix or the latest electronic dub from Invader Tron; this show has a little something for everyone or to quote the latest lyrics from The Psychedlic Furs “no-one at all”. 😘
