Violens "Already Over" (not endorsed etcetera by George Michael)

Video (re-shot/edited) by Caroline Polachek "Already Over" remix video / audio from the Violens EP on Cantora Records. Download an MP3 here: http://www.violens.net/RMX/Already_Oslo.zip

"My interpretation of Violens' Already Over is a lone-wolf afterglow of 80s manhattan- dancing l'heure bleue silhouettes, leather and silver. Who better a pied piper than four different incarnations of George Michael? I shot and reframed the low-res internet footage off my laptop screen in defocused HD, then cut it together over the course of the last Chairlift tour in the back of the van. Violens are all big GM fans, so the George/Jorge pairing was a perfect visual and vocal fit. Ta-da!"
-Caroline Polachek (Chairlift)
