The 80s on 8
The 80s on 8 is a commercial-free Sirius XM Radio channel dedicated to 80s music. Established in 2000/2001 by Bruce Kelly – an experienced radio program director and morning drive/afternoon personality – when the merger between Sirius and XM took effect November 12, 2008 it merged with Big ’80s channel to take its current name.

Sirius XM’s The 80s on 8 is unique among decades channels in that it does not feature live announcers; rather it is voice tracked by four remaining original MTV “veejays”, Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter and Martha Quinn – who all voice track. Programming similar to MTV Big ’80s includes familiar JAM Creative Productions jingles (as found elsewhere on decades channels), DJ habits from previous decades channels used on other decade channels, 80s slang references as well as news updates.

SiriusXM recently made a move that is both practical and disappointing: disc jockeys were removed from two more music channels: 50s on 5 and the 90s on 9. This decision makes business sense while simultaneously taking satellite radio another step back from what made it stand out at first – playing music not heard elsewhere on traditional radio and hiring DJs with unique backgrounds like DJ MC Hammer were what set Sirius XM apart when first launched; playlists have tightened, voices have disappeared, older music replaced with more well-known hits from each music channel – something which affects every Sirius XM music channel as a trend that can only come back later.
