Radio 80

The Italian station Radio 80 has dedicated itself musically entirely to the sounds of the eighth decade. Under the programmatic motto se è nuovo non suona – meaning “If it’s new, it doesn’t get played” – the program consistently focuses on 1980s music. The web offering and broadcast reflect this clear orientation and forego modern chart hits.

The station’s on-demand offering is divided into various special programs that illuminate specific facets of the era. These include formats such as Funkytown, Funky Remember and Disco DOC, which are dedicated to the danceable and funky roots of the decade. The program is complemented by series such as Balla 80, 80 Mix, 80 Mix History as well as Afro Tour, which focus on the club and mix culture of the 1980s.
