This week the Strictly Soundtrack team have the rare treat of an extra long episode so they picked a movie with a soundtrack so full of 80s goodness it wouldn’t possibly fit into their usual hour. Released in 2017 but set in 1989 in Berlin, the film is a roller-coaster ride of espionage, car chases, taking down the badguys and a lot of fighting. Its accompanied by a great list if songs from the era including New Order, David Bowie, Depeche Mode, A Flock Of Seagulls, Health, Nina, Peter Schilling and Queen.

The post Atomic Blonde appeared first on Strictly Soundtracks.
