Making Mirrors is a genre-defying breath of fresh air.
Belgian multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Wouter De Backer, aka Gotye, has exploded onto the music scene with his single, Somebody That I Used to Know. Gotye writes genre-defying music with insightful lyrics and songs that each sound different from the next. Calling this album alternative would be a mistake; rather, it is a step forward in musical evolution. Poetic and strange, this CD is sure to be a hit with teens who enjoy more than just Katy Perry and Lady Gaga’s pop confections. Give Making Mirrors a listen – it holds something for all music lovers and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
