In the 1980s we downloaded games from the radio

I remember here on HN reading about some vinyl which had either software or games on from the 80s but I dont recall the artist, so this doesnt sound too far from that for me.

You're thinking of The Thompson Twins https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thompson_Twins_Adventure

Or could be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camouflage_(Chris_Sievey_song). Or probably other things too.

Edit: There is a (small) wikipedia category for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Vinyl_data

Idk thank you. My money is still on it being the Thompson Twins though - they were top 10 regulars and household names at the time. :)

My money says Frank Sidebottom (Chris Sievey's alter ego) probably has more cultural currency than The Thompson Twins in 202x. But obviously idk what they're thinking of.
