Infected Mushroom at the Regency in San Francisco
Infected Mushroom is by far my absolute favorite Electronic Band. They rock a stage just like any other rock star out there and they bring down the house! Their style is considered Psy-Trance which in the US is usually found as a Niche style but if you find your way to South America or Israel… Lets just say thousands and even into the 5 figure stats for Psy-Trance shows. Maybe one day I can make my out to a festival.
Originally Infected Mushroom cam from Israel as a duo, Duvdev and Ires, the produced and played DJ sets. As their production gained strength and they pushed the edge of their style and the genera itself and really flourished into the now 4 piece traveling band with their Amazing and Humble drummer Rogerio and true to the Axe Guitar Player Tommy. I’ve pretty much fast forwarded to the current from the beginning but you can find everything you need to know on their website.
So normally I get a chance to hang out with them (we’ve become friends) but I didn’t get to the show until about 15 min before they went live so I had to stay in the crowd. Not a complaint at all because if you have ever witnessed their show being in the crowd is crazy amazing. The vibe from the people and the interaction of the band makes them so prodigious it feeds the energy and the whole venue goes crazy. I wanted to make my way backstage but I stayed at the front of the stage and snapped over 800 photos. Lets just say it’s not easy to get into the middle of a hungry crowd to take some photos but amidst the sweaty cheering people I made my slow camera in the air side step to the front and took some shots that I hope they use one day. New MySpacers is what I told Tommy actually. Here are a few samples of the shots I took and if you would like to see more, check ‘em out on my flickr account!
You should click on the images to see them full! My favorite is the black and white. And the one of me, Tommy actually took my camera in the middle of their performance and took photos from the stage! Now if you guys want to find out more about the band check them out on their website, www.infected-mushroom.com. Here is the newest release from them in full music video form, “Smash the Opponent”.
