Infected Mushroom LIVE w/ Randy Seidman and Jonathan Lestat
  • Infected Mushroom

    After twenty five years making waves in the scene, Infected Mushroom has earned their  reputation as a groundbreaking legend in electronic music. Twice ranked amongst the  world’s “10 Best DJ’s” by DJ Magazine, with streaming numbers in the tens of millions  and a cult following of die-hard fans, the Israel-bred, LA-based duo has created one of  the most powerful kingdoms in the world of electronic music. 

    The combined force of Israeli producers Amit “Duvdev” Duvdevani and Erez Eisen,  Infected is world-renowned for their sonic innovations, genre-defying sound, and  unrivaled production quality. This trademark sound is cultivated through hypnotic  arrangements, layered melodies, and a willingness to blur the lines of genre. 

    While widely recognized as pioneers of psytrance music, over the years Infected has  demonstrated an ability to not only break the rules, but create their own rulebook  entirely, and inspire other artists to do the same. Since 1999, they have been on a non stop worldwide tour, selling out shows and headlining festivals around the globe. 

    This year Infected Mushroom is celebrating twenty five years as a powerhouse of  electronic music, and they are honoring this milestone with a new album - aptly named  “IM25”. 

    When the Covid-19 pandemic shuttered live shows in 2020, Duvdev and Erez took  advantage of being off the road by cooking up yet another album of bangers. Infected  has always been a master of collaborations, and “IM25” is no exception with tracks  featuring Bliss, Hope 6, Ninet Tayeb, Nick Hexum from 311, and more. 

    “IM25” will be released globally via Monstercat on September 8, 2022.
