What are some 80s sounding synth pop songs in 2020?

To give you an idea of what sort of music I’m looking for, listen to “Closer” by Tegan and Sara, as well as “Right Back to You” by Electric Youth. It appears both bands have gone on to more 2010s style synth pop, which I’m not as huge a fan of.

Any recommendations for 2020s songs that have that synth pop feel would be great!

    Do you need some sax solo's to wash these down with? =)

    Simon, I did enjoy the start of that Tegan and Sara clip where the tape goes in the deck. Stuff like that just gets me :)

    If I may add a couple I have been enjoying that I hope might hit the spot.

    Bathe Alone- In Deep

    Rinse- Trust in Me

    The Haunted Youth- Stranger (demo)

    Candace- Island / ...

    Cheers

    Mh. I listen to a darker synthpop than the songs you posted, but I try with some things that might interest you (I tell you the album titles and I leave a song) -link in the comments-

    - Grimes - Miss Anthropochene

    - Tr/st (this from 2019, but if you don't know him deserves to be discovered, maybe my current favorite synthpop artist) - The Destroyer 1&2

    - Police des Moeurs - Péril
