Violet Vision

Violet Vision are Jonathan Dagan and Shay Raviv, both born in 1982 and living in the north of Israel. Shay has ten years of classical music education, mainly playing the piano, till he decided to get a little “modern” and got himself some electronic equipment to experiment with. Jonathan played guitar for a few years until he decided that a band was too much of a crowd and moved to work on his own on some experimental industrial rock stuff. They both went to the same school, but didn’t really know each other, until one day they exchanged some notes, understood they compliment each other and have great chemistry, and from then on they’re together.
As influences they state a wide range of artists: Placebo, Primus, Dream Theatre, Young Gods, Front242, Ministry, Eat Static, Koxbox, Process, Underworld, Orbital, Bjork, Depeche Mode, Anna Clark and more.

In June 2003, as preview for their second album they released Your Voice CDs, and their much-awaited second album- Unfold- was released in Oct. 2003 (The album was mastered in London by Mike Marsh (who has worked with the Depeche Mode, Chemical Brothers and Basement Jaxx among others).
