Phatchance X Gotye – Somebody That I Used To Know (Hip Hop Remix)

Jim Steps

The ever creative I Forget, Sorry member Phatchance is back with a cracking remix of Gotye’s newly released Somebody That I Used To Know featuring Kimbra. With help from producer One Above, Phatchance flips Gotye in to a smooth hip hop track whilst paying homage in the same breath. The original version of this track is featured on Gotye’s 2011 album Making Mirrors (Stream here).   It’s a pretty hard task attempting to remix a perfect song, you can’t really improve anything, only change it.

Each year Triple J Unearthed in conjunction with NIDA select five of the most promising new artists from across the country to have a professional video clip directed for one of their tracks.
