Maybe check out some of lali puna stuff? Faking the books was a decent album back in day.

I'm guessing you already know about Postal Service

More guitar based but the same vibe.

I generally really like the '80s throwback music that is released these days. Not all of it is equally good, but the tunes that catch the vibe aren't bad
