Infected Mushroom are an Israeli psytrance/electronica duo formed in Haifa in late 1997 by producers Erez Eisen, who uses the moniker "Eisen", and Amit Duvdevani, or "Duvdev". The duo's style has evolved in the 2000s to include trip-hop, industrial rock and goa. They employ a variety of musical sources, including acoustic guitars, choirs, and complex synthesized basses, in compositions that often contain constant 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.
Infected Mushroom is one of the best-selling groups in Israel's history, in terms of both domestic and international sales. Both founding members reside in Los Angeles, California.
