Music: Infected Mushroom

It's been years and YEARS and years since I've done any sort of music review so I'm really out of place and I'm covering a genre I'm not all too familiar with but I like to jump in the deep end and swim with sharks. They've got pretty teeth and can eat stuff like toasters, and goats and stuff.

That said.

You'll like these guys cos I tell you to.

Or you can suck it.

Israli Psycadelic Trance.

That's the best way to describe these guys.

From what I gather they're big in the Electronic scene. My boyfriend makes some of his own stuff and explained some of the techniques these guys use to produce their albums and it was WAYYYY over my head. I'm talking WHOAH! WTF is happening here where'd that come from huh?

Their Discography so far goes as thus:

* The Gathering (1999)
* Classical Mushroom (2000)
* BP Empire (2001)
* Converting Vegetarians (2003)
* IM The Supervisor (2004)

I've got their Converting Vegetarians release and have heard a bunch of their other stuff and lemme tell you this aint no teenybopper hip hop techno bullshit. this stuff's pretty danged awesome. It's artistic and techno and trance and freakin' cool.

I only wish our big ole hobbit-sized speakers *BOTH* worked cos their surround sound capabilities is worth blasting and annoying neighbours and getting the cops called on your house and the fine you'll get for noise complaints should get put up on the refrigerator.

I think they can get hired out for events like Goa parties and their live shows will tear you apart.

I only wish I had been more involved in the electronic music scene more in my past because this as well as some of my following reviews won't do anyone justice.

If anything... take a chance and dowload their Converting Vegetarian's song. And maybe check out their official website if you're intrigued.

I'll make you work for that one.
