Does it make you feel warm inside? Does it lift you up? Does it put you down? Does it take you back to a golden age, when we were brave and a new heaven was all around.\u201d<\/em><br>Parading within a brand of dance pop that sounds like Donna Summer and Giorgio Moroder gleefully discovering house music via Dee-lite, and building on a run of breakthrough singles, Confidence Man arrived properly with their debut&nbsp;Confident Music for Confident People.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Australian four-piece&nbsp;(led by Janet Planet and Sugar Bones)&nbsp;are back with that same pointed, simple question + their latest single and video: <em>Does It Make You Feel Good?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Propelled by a bouncy beat, a healthy helping of 90\u2019s dance bop influence, and a seductive&nbsp;repeated vocal, the cut pulls ever forwards to an all out disco breakdown. Constantly swirling and building, the song manages to fit a full dancefloor jam session into 4 minutes and 50 seconds. By the time it&#8217;s through, the song\u2019s titular question will feel like the only one worth asking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The track comes with a music video treatment,&nbsp;shot in Berlin with&nbsp;long-time visual collaborators&nbsp;Schall and Schnabel. The band have always had a cult-like following, with people dressing like Janet Planet and Sugar Bones at shows,&nbsp;mimicking their every dance move.&nbsp;It was an easy next step to go with their version of religious ecstasy \u2013 hypnotisms, alters, rituals, levitation, lazer boobs and some cute animals for good measure.
