"What we're gonna do right here, is go back..."

-And that's all you really need to know. But if you like some extra cheese on your pizza, then we must go...

REWIND

...Way back. To less than 10 years after the 80s ended...

Thank you for reading about us. In return, we give you a little site 'easter egg' ;-) This site has been specifically designed to authentically teleport you back to the mid-80s. But it has a secret feature. It just depends how much of the '1985 factor' you can handle?

If you increase your browser 'zoom', the teleportation effect will progressively get more powerful until you can only be back again at about 150% or more

Thank you for reading about us. This site has been specifically designed to authentically teleport you back to the mid-80s and we hope if you visit us that it feels like you're back again

The Original Voice Of A Decade

Promo from 1999

Before Wikipedia. Before Blogging. Before Social Media... When the 1980s were just an embarrassing joke of "big hair and shoulder pads" every time the mainstream media mentioned them... We were here...

And we were by far the biggest* of like, only two or three collectives out there who were totally celebrating the 80s in an ocean of derision and condescension. Early social media, you could say. Over the next 25 years, we've been thrilled to watch the greatest decade rock back on top where it belongs
*An average 1.4m hits per day in the early 2000's

"Fair Is Fair"...
