The Most Serene Republic of Venice. Oh, Venice, what a beautiful place that must be. Sadly, I can't say I have ever visited any such republics which are the most serene. Now, I can't speak for a certain collection of Canadians, but I certainly have kept my eye on The Most Serene Republic, who cropped up out of Ontario to start a real storm in the artistic music scene.
The Ontario art students have been making their way and having loads of fun lately. And now, they present the fruits of their labours. The Most Serene Republic participated in a film titled Green Door, which was premiered last December at the Toronto Film Festival. They covered the song by the same title, "Green Door" - originally by Jim Lowe - which was featured in the film. Now, The Most Serene Republic is featuring "Green Door" for its listeners online! As if new tunes (or cover songs, for that matter) weren't exciting enough, the word on the grapevine is that The Most Serene Republic is entering the studio in the extremely near future. We can expect some newer tunes very soon, along with many more exciting announcements.
So where to begin? You go read a little bit about the film Green Door, certainly. Or you can wander over The Most Serene Republic's Myspace, where you can listen to their latest song - a cover of Jim Lowe - "Green Door," and be thoroughly amused; you can also catch with of TMSR's B-Side, "Pillow Persecussion," which is a very abstract instrumental. Drop by, say hi!
Oh, and of course, happy Halloween from Voilà!
But with the malfunctioning computer, don't expect me to be too generous on the candy giving.
