“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,” they say. The 80s were a time of great innovation, with an emphasis on individuality and new sounds, looks, and attitudes. But there were also many bands who paid homage to what came before. This Saturday, Virtual Vortex features a series of songs from other eras, covered with sincerity and a unique flair by some of our favorite 80s New Wave, Post Punk, and Synthy Artists. Don’t be fooled by the cassette tapes, this all-vinyl set is merely an augmented recreation of DJ Dynamo’s 1998 mixtape, entitled “Flattery.” Tune in on Sat. 8/7 at 10pm ET @radio614 Flyer credit: @lionlambsey #vortex #vortexcbus #virtualvortex #radio614 #djdynamo #vinyldj #allvinyldj #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylrecords #cassettes #mixtape #80s #80smusic #newwave #postpunk #synthpop #newromantic #goth #flattery #imitationisthesincerestformofflattery #coversongs
