Making Mirrors, which received four stars from Rolling Stone, is making waves thanks to its stunning first single “Somebody That I Used To Know” (featuring guest vocals by New Zealand singer Kimbra.) which is currently nestled in the Australian Top 10. Gotye received seven ARIA nominations for his work.

Making Mirrors is pop at its most precise, but also electronic music at its most emotional. The record delves into dub, Detroit-era Motown soul, stadium-size politi-pop, synth-folk and world music on glorious, sprawling, huge-hearted songs. -excerpt artist feature, Amazon
