I like 80s music, and I especially like finding 80s music that is new to me. This is a mixtape podcast sharing the songs I find and offering an alternative playlist to what you'd hear on the Time Life Awesome 80s compilation.

And… we are back! After fourteen months of no Deep Cuts and Superficial Wounds, the podcast is back with ninety minutes of 80s pop gems for you.

Part two of a celebration of 80s music that's either outright spooky or Halloween-adjacent.
Listen to previous Halloween episodes, Samantha and Sabrina — and also this episode, which has a solid dark-dancey vibe.
The former U.S.S.R. had its own synthpop and new wave acts, but the Cold War prevented a lot of Americans from hearing how good they were at assembling those 80s music building blocks into cool formations we didn't get here.
26:03 Vladmir Osinskov and Olga Chipovskaya, "Safari (Сафари)"
33:09 Natalya Gulkina, "This Is China (Это Китай)" — • •

It's summer, it's pride and it's (almost) post-pandemic. I'm celebrating all three of these with an episode I'm hoping sets the tone for the entire season. Special thanks to DJ Eric Pruitt for for suggestions from his playlist tribute to the days of Marilyn's Back Street.
Someone said they like my show but they weren't into the Asian artists I've played, so here is an episode with an entire block of Asian artists. Plus some other stuff.
Sixteen songs I totally vouch for and then one that's about a woman who is actually a cat. Special assist from Sam Pancake, host of a podcast I produce, Sam Pancake Presents the Monday Afternoon Movie.
The final track comes Steve, longtime online friend whose own collection of pop culture antiquities, Obscure Video Games, you can see on Twitter and on Tumblr.
