Violens Gets Remixed For Real and Sort Of Not For Real (Wham! Included)

story THE FADER

Attention all New York bands looking for your big break on FADER.com: Just make your video out of an old Wham! video and send it to welovethatshit@thefader.com. We guarantee it will go up as soon as we put eyes on it. Of course, that is not to diminish the actual loveliness of Violens‘ “Already Over” which got Wham!ed by Chairlift’s Caroline Polachek. It is, in fact, a great song, as are the rest of the songs on their recent self-titled EP on Cantora Records. Incidentally, each of those songs will be getting remixed and released for free in the coming weeks as the band winds down it’s UK tour. Here’s the first, a spacey dub of the aforementioned “Already Over” by Kurt Heasley of Lilys. Further remixes will come from MGMT, remix collective (RAC), Subtle People and Lansing-Dreiden.
