Dirk Oddfellow here, letting 'Under the Milky Way' by The Church drift through on Flashback 🌌 That bagpipe-sounding synth solo isn't actually bagpipes at all, just a guitar effect that fooled everyone for decades ✨

@nowwave.radioReal Life rode "Send Me an Angel" straight into new wave history, and 'God Tonight' proves they had way more up their sleeve than just that one hit 🌃 Dirk Oddfellow spinning the deep cuts on Flashback
@nowwave.radioMidnight Oil never shied away from politics, and "When the Generals Talk" is no exception - all urgent rhythms and righteous anger 🎙️ Dirk Oddfellow bringing the fire on Flashback today
@nowwave.radioDebora Iyall's voice just slinks right through this one 🎷 Romeo Void always had that cool, moody sax-and-attitude thing going on Flashback today
@nowwave.radioBurning Sensations might ring a bell if you remember Repo Man - that soundtrack was pure punk gold 📼 'Belly of the Whale' brings the jittery, off-kilter energy on Flashback right now

@nowwave.radioDirk Oddfellow here, cranking up 'Two Tribes' on Flashback 📼 This thing sat at Number One in the UK for nine straight weeks in 1984 - pure Cold War paranoia turned into a dancefloor weapon ⚡
@nowwave.radioWild fact for you on Flashback - "Dear God" was originally left off Skylarking entirely, then became the album's most talked-about track after fan demand got it added back 📻 XTC's boldest moment, no question
@nowwave.radioDirk Oddfellow here, sliding that deep voiced "oh yeah" into your afternoon 🕶️ Fun fact, this Yello classic showed up in Ferris Bueller's Day Off and never really left pop culture since

@nowwave.radioDirk Oddfellow here on Flashback 🌹 "Suedehead" was Morrissey's first solo single after The Smiths split, and it still shot straight into the UK charts. That jangly guitar just aches, doesn't it?
