Hey, retro vibe lovers! Ready to time-travel back to the ‘80s with a track that’s dripping in nostalgia and indie cool? The Feather’s “BB” dropped today, April 7, 2025, and it’s a synthpop and indie pop gem that’s got Thomas Hedlund of Phoenix fame rocking the drums. With vibes that could sit comfy next to Mk.gee, Toro y Moi, or Porches, this single’s the beating heart of The Feather’s upcoming album—and trust me, it’s a total crush. Let’s plug in and get lost in this one!


The Sound, The Soul, The Spark

“BB” kicks off with a synth line that’s pure ‘80s gold—think shimmering keys and a beat that’s got that warm, analog glow. Thomas Hedlund’s drumming lays down a punchy, ethereal groove, giving it that Phoenix flair—crisp yet dreamy, driving the track like a late-night cruise. The Feather’s frontman, Thomas Médard, wraps it in his smooth, expressive vocals, singing about the everyday grind of love—the routine that scares but soothes, a reminder that some bonds just keep growing. It’s simple yet deep, a love note that says, “I know you,” set to a melody that sticks like your favorite mixtape.

This Belgian artist calls “BB” the soul of his new album, and you can hear why—it’s got that timeless synthpop charm, polished by Chris Taylor’s production (Grizzly Bear vibes, anyone?) and brought to life with Rebeka Mor’s vibrant visuals. Fresh off his cover of “Missing,” Médard’s leaning into love as a theme, and “BB” sets the stage with a sound that’s both retro and right-now. Synthpop’s having a moment in 2025—think Toro y Moi’s chill grooves or Porches’ quirky edge—and this track’s right in the pocket. Hit play below and let it sweep you away!
