    Feedback's genre classification (pop rock, blues rock, jazz) and its origin performing at Dhaka's InterContinental Hotel in 1976 reflect the same expatriate/hotel-circuit Western-repertoire pipeline through which Souls and other founding-era bands absorbed international influences.

Local adaptation

Founded in 1976 by keyboardist Foad Nasser Babu, Feedback debuted at the InterContinental Hotel, Dhaka, before recording its first original song 'Aye Din Chiro Din Robey' (1980) and, after Labu Rahman joined in 1986, moving concerts out of hotels into standalone venues — marking a broader industry shift from hotel-lounge performance toward independent concert culture that other bands of the era also underwent.

Sound evolution

Founding period (1976–1980): formed and debuted in a hotel-circuit context typical of 1970s Dhaka; first recorded original song released in 1980. Consolidation period (1986 onward): Labu Rahman's arrival helped move the band toward standalone concerts and further studio albums (Feedback, Sragam Acoustics), blending pop rock, blues rock and jazz idioms. Later recognition: won Best Band from RTV in 1995 for 'Jai Jai Din,' reflecting sustained mainstream relevance across decades and multiple lineup changes.

Based on documented description and discographic sequence. No audio-feature analysis was possible in this project, so nothing here rests on measured signal.

Concert culture

Historically tied to Dhaka's hotel-lounge performance circuit (InterContinental Hotel debut, 1976) before transitioning to independent concerts from 1986 onward, illustrating the industry-wide move from hospitality-venue live music to a dedicated concert/festival ecosystem.

Listener community

One of the founding-generation mainstream rock/pop acts alongside Souls, contributing to the same alumni-and-influence network that shaped later prominent bands; RTV's 1995 Best Band recognition signals mainstream broadcast-era visibility.

Inferred from co-billing and from what artists and journalists said — this project has no audience-side data.
