Full playlist at https://bit.ly/2CFO3t2 | We commemorated the thirtieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall in this episode, by playing tracks from artists that were from behind the Iron Curtain. We started the show with a set in which we went back in time by dancing to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the 1989 anti-communist revolution, went back to the Cold War and met with someone from the DDR (Eastern Germany), who took us through Checkpoint Charlie. Then we started the show proper with post-punk tracks by artists from Poland, Hungary, and Soviet Russia. We followed that with synthpop and new wave tracks from Soviet Russia, Romania, and Soviet Latvia. The last set had some Hungarian punk rock, and experimental music from Soviet Kazakhstan and Eastern Germany/DDR.
