8485 shares new track, “I Feel Fantastic"
Canadian singer-songwriter and producer 8485 has released her new single, "I Feel Fantastic".
"I Feel Fantastic" follows a run of recent singles from 8485, including a cover of Lily Allen's "The Fear" released last month, and "G.I.R.L." featuring Danny Brown, released in 2025. The new track comes from a period of frustration under the pressure to stay calm in the midst of global instability, with production influence taken from Japanese producer Yasutaka Nakata.
Speaking about the song, 8485 shares: “‘I Feel Fantastic’ is an existential crashout, so it’s meant a lot of different things to me since I made the first version five years ago. It’s about the uselessness of reassurance when the present feels unprecedented and the future feels unpredictable. I hope people will dance to it, because a lot of the time that’s the more productive response”
