Check out the interview where Confidence Man talks about their new material and collaboration dynamics:
Paul Hartnoll of Orbital expressed his appreciation for Confidence Man’s approach:
“We’re going into the studio in a few weeks, to see what happens. Listening to our respective remixes, I think a lot of magic will happen. They’re my kind of dance band: wild Australians who don’t take themselves too seriously and get away with it.”
“They have an Australian attitude to what they do: it’s just fun. They appeal to my absurdist nature. There’s something mad to what Confidence Man do that I really enjoy. It’s a good match.”
