Origins & Early Life

Infected Mushroom (Hebrew: אינפקטד מאשרום) is an Israeli musical duo formed in Haifa in 1996 by producers Erez Eisen (ארז אייזן) and Amit Duvdevani (עמית דובדבני). They produce and perform psytrance, electronica, dream trance and psychedelic music. They are one of the best-selling groups in Israeli music history in terms of both domestic and international sales. They employ a variety of musical sources, including acoustic guitars and complex synthesized basses.

Pivotal Works & Achievements

Their compositions often contain changes of drum beat and tempo. Infected Mushroom's live shows feature vocals and analogue instruments in performances that are set against a multimedia backdrop. Erez Eisen was born on 8 September 1980 in Qiryat Yam, Israel. He began classical musical training at a young age, learning to play the organ at the age of four and studying classical piano at the Haifa Conservatory from the age of eight.
