Singing in English, Spanish, French or their native Creole, Tabou serves a hot mix of grooves and textures with roots from around the world. He provides a strong dose of the Dominican Republic's national dance music, meringue. In addition, there is Haiti's dance-till-you-drop carnival music, rara, and the hypnotic drums of Haitian voodoo rituals. Add to that quadrilles and contra-dances from Haiti's French colonizers and funk from the American soul era to James Brown for good measure. The mixture of all these influences makes for a serious bass line that brings new meaning to the word bottom; layer upon layer of accents courtesy of drums, percussion and congas; the constant intertwining of two guitars with the feel of West African Soukous topped with bright piano riff and the brassy sound of a 3-man horn section.

Feel good, Feel good
Feel good, Feel good

Come, party people let go party

And you'll whined with a little romance

The song "Feel Good" by Tabou Combo is a Caribbean-inspired groove that invites people to let loose and dance until the break of dawn. The chorus repeats the phrase "Feel good" several times, suggesting that the song is meant to evoke a positive feeling in the listener. The lyrics are clearly intended to get people on the dance floor and moving their bodies to the rhythm of the music. The verse suggests that Konpa music, with its unique beat and sweet sound, is the perfect genre for people to dance to. The song mentions shaking one's booty and moving from side to side, which are all classic dance moves.
In the middle of the song, a voice introduces itself as Danny Le Beau, presumably a member of Tabou Combo, and encourages everyone to keep dancing and moving their bodies. The instruments all have a role to play in the song, from the drummer to the bass player, and the vocalizations are a prominent part of the track. The song has a playful, upbeat tone that makes it impossible not to tap one's toes and let loose on the dance floor.
