80s alternative

What happened to the 80s Alternative channel? It used to be awesome! Then they gave control to Bryan Ferry. I had no idea who that was until I Google him. He was in Roxy music. So now all you get is Bryan Ferry and Roxy music songs. They had a couple decent songs but only a couple. And he plays a lot of music from other decades. Just had one from 60s followed by one from the 70s. He had ruined this channel.

@Jenxter Nice to see you around the community.

It sounds like you may be in the Bryan Ferry Takeover Mode.

Make sure you are set to My Station when listening to 80s alternative:

If you continue to run into issues with your station:

Genre stations, such as "Today's Hits" or 80s Alternative Radio are stations created and curated by Pandora. Sometimes, they might include more mainstream artists and songs or we may make changes to the station that can result in changes to the experience you've been accustomed to. You can always use Thumbs to help guide the station you are trying to create.

As an alternative, we recommend creating your own station, using an artist or song that you think best represents a particular genre.

Additionally, you may Add Variety to the station you create, in order to include other artists or songs you'd like to influence your station.

Keep in mind, each seed you add will inspire hundreds of other songs, so a little variety goes a long way. If you don't like the direction your station is headed, you can always edit your station seeds and Thumbs through the Station Details.

That said, when you're listening from a computer, mobile device or the Sonos app, you can access Pandora Modes to customize your station experience. You can pick different modes like Crowd Faves, Discovery and Deep Cuts. Let me know if you'd like more information about that.

Hope this is helpful. Thanks for listening!
