I Present to you a very unlikely link between two artists, One is a young lady called Violet who lives in the USA and the other is a musician from the UK, The funny thing is that they have never actually met! Read their biography bellow and see what I mean!
Perpetual Emotion
"The Chance"
Start rabbit hole mode on I Was Totally Destroying It's profile page and we'll play one of their songs. 
When that song finishes we might play a song by Hammer No More The Fingers, an artist I Was Totally Destroying It has recommended. 
When that song finished we might play a song by Organos, an artist Hammer No More The Fingers is about to play a show with. 
Stay in Rabbit Hole mode and see how far down it goes. We'll keep playing music based off the previous song.

Questions
Violet and the TransAtlantic SoundLabs Questions that were asked by their fans !
Q: Can you reveal any of the technical details of your "long distance" recording process? AM thinking of doing the same.
A: First I think it is important to really click with the person you are going to collaborate with remotely. That is really key! So you want to make sure you have a good energy together. If you don't, the music will definitely reflect this. As far as the technicalities, basically, the main aspect is getting the recording details in place on each side of the ocean. You must make sure the equipment that each person is using is compatible to share and work with back and forth. I suggest the use of skype, email and twitter. By communicating a lot, you will get to have a better familiarity with each other even though you have never met. That will definitely come across in the music. More questions? Don't hesitate to reach out. Warm Regards, Violet Asked by David Namerow (Freelance Congas/Hand Percussion). Answered on Wed Oct 17 2012
Artist Bio
Two unlikely creative spirits connected across the ocean through twitter, and the outcome was music, music and more music!!!
Yes, we have never met in person. We call ourselves TransAtlantic because Violet lives in Philadelphia, PA and Paul in Wirral, UK. We write, record and produce all of our music remote from each other, but somehow we just clicked from the start! Music is our passion and we hope that you can sense that in the emotion felt in each and every song we write and record.
More About Violet Alexandre
I'm a singer, songwriter and creative spirit from Philadelphia, PA.
Music has always been the part of my life that makes me happy. Most recently, I have been blessed to connect with my passion and courage to pursue singing and songwriting as a central focus in my life.
I’ve always dreamed of being a professional singer from the time I was very young. I was fortunate to grow up in a musical family. My mom is a classical pianist, vocalist and organist, in stark contrast to my paternal grandfather who played the accordion completely by ear in taprooms. Lucky for me, I think I got a little bit of both of them in me.
From the age of 2, I was singing and playing the piano, so my mom naturally decided to send me for traditional classical instruction. I sang in church choirs, school performance groups, was a soloist for special occasions and the list goes on. Honestly, there was never a time of my life that I wasn’t singing somewhere or somehow.
The rigidity of classical training never fully sat with my free spirit. As I got older, I began exploring new musical genres, becoming a praise leader in a contemporary Christian rock band and singing at piano bars and open mics.
In what I like to think of as my former life, I graduated with a BA in Communication Science from the College of Allied Health Professions, Temple University as class Valedictorian. I worked in the health care industry for 10 years in sales and marketing. Furthering my dedication to health and wellness, I became a Nationally Certified Massage Therapist and Certified Pilates instructor. My hobbies include, distance running, hatha yoga, gluten free cooking, and creative writing.

So you see what I was saying at the beginning of this blog entry is quiet remarkable, The fact that these two individual artists can record from both sides of the world is fantastic! Good Luck to both of them! Look out for this Band as I think they will eventually make it in the music industry, Their music is soothing to the ear and almost hypnotic! Well done guys keep up the good work!
