From the makers of Absolute Radio, Absolute 80s is the UK’s only radio station dedicated to playing the undisputed classics of the 1980s. Immerse yourself in a decade of music so infectious that before you know it you’ll be reaching for the shoulder pads, pulling on those stonewashed jeans and painting your face like Adam Ant.
Absolute 80s launched at 7.00pm on 4th December 2009 replacing Absolute Xtreme.
The marketing plan for Absolute 80s started with targeted sampling at 80s events such as Madness, Pet Shop Boys and Depeche Mode at the O2 Arena, and Simple Minds at Wembley Arena. The first track to play on the station was (You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!) by the Beastie Boys.
On Friday 14 May 2010, Absolute 80s launched on Digital One national DAB digital radio.
