[@guillaumevde]

This version of Saee'd is UNBELIEVABLE !!!! I'm in love again.

[@janilehtonen3540]

I dunno about that, vocal performance is bit off and also it gets quite noisy when they play all together. It was also quite disappointing that they used a drum machine to create that bongo pattern. I think they nailed the previous songs although.

[@DoomShroom93]

I still think it's sick how they manage to bring this sound "live" Erez is a fucking God!

my daughter ( 4 years old) and I are absolutely obsessed with infected mushroom she's always humming their tunes and is always asking me to play that song lol I'm currently expecting another kid and I'm gonna get him hooked on infected mushroom too they are just soo damn rich in sound and quality and it makes us very happy!!! Thank you infected mushroom for making such awesome music.

Yay 😀 my 3 year old son is learning to love them too. He always wants I Wish, Feelings, or Demons of Pain. Wonderful music!

[@DraithVicious]

Some of these are better than the album versions.

[@jadeevetz9426]

Kirk Russell Saeed in particular. In my opinion their best track of any album. So glad they decided to include that in this mix.

[@DraithVicious]

That track is one of my favorites as well.

Duvdev is the face of IM. Erez is the heart.

[@sapirgoldberg4185]

Guys, Duvdev played classical piano for 9 years and he may not play when they preform but he does contribute mussicaly

[@entranced98]

Damn, Erez is fantastic on the keyboard

[@CupidsGrimReapR]

THE KEYBOARD PLAYER. He's got the skills. To pay the bills.

Listening to it again after 10 years, SHIT MAN, ITS SOOOO FREAKING AWESOME!

[@PanzerVelox]

Sa'eed and Never Mind totally the best! with greetings from heavy/thrash metal fan. Stay heavy, and be open minded for such awsome electronic music!

[@gabor6259]

Infected Mushroom is love. Infected Mushroom is life.

[@paradigmdashed]

10:10 just listening to the album, i would have never guessed most of this synth work was/could be played live and is not just all sequenced .. blows my mind

[@han1218]

Funny thing, at 11:22 Erez looks away to his left while still playing

[@AlexIsiv]

they are sequenced 100% but by pretty small pieces he still needs to trigger, it is still an amazing an difficult task to remember where is everything. There are tiny things not sampled such as bass presets and other leads but when he plays those nothing else is on the way or is programmed either on the right side or on the first keys.

[@LucidSpark123]

Watch them live in concert and you'll be blown away!

[@noonehere0987]

@@AlexIsiv Lol not 100% no. It's not mostly played either. It's a good mix of both and one awesome performance. You can see him playing the notes and hearing those same notes played all over. Of course the guitar is chugging away in the background too. Some of the patches will trigger sequences, small sequences that vary from the note or the longer sections that aren't much more than sequenced knob control over it or a looped hit and various stuff. Keyboard has a couple zones on it. Some might look like it's sequenced, but he's playing chords that run through some kind of gapper/volume shaper, so his fingers don't match with the rhythm you hear, but the notes definitely do because you can see and hear it. Oh, and Erez does some wild and wacky things with his mod wheel. Very few electronic artists can tie together different settings to get the expressiveness or sound changes he can get with it. It's awesome.

[@AlexanderStemkowski]

@@noonehere0987 Yes, Wakeman or Banks would just hit the bar, knowing perfectly well that they'd been outdone hands down. Which is great )

[@krass76]

today I learned that when you think something is arpegiated very fast, it's just erez playing at a truly insane tempo. 10:12 36:22 IM is so rad, especially erez!

[@phuongdh]

I was pleasantly surprised too. Totally thought they used arpeggiator like most EMD bands.

[@MassMultiplayer]

thx for speicifc time , delicious moment :D for sure. arpegio till eye flip, precision

[@noonehere0987]

That first one at 10:12 has a whole bunch of effects on it too that affect the feel of the rate of it.

[@jonathanshamam9123]

I need a whole set just with camera on erez

[@toddsteinhoff2516]

My favorite live act. Seen infected mushroom live last year with not knowing much of their music left my favorite show of all time.

[@leech8561]

I don't care much for live performances usually but this is great. Well done Infected Mushroom!

[@imtheplantman]

I just met Erez Eisen after a show in Eugene Oregon, USA. It was fuckin' awesome. It blew my mind. This group is the leader in electronic music. They are the best.

[@Silentstorm_AU]

These guys are very underrated in Australia, I found these guys from a Spotify playlist that a random Facebook friend of mine was listening to it been in love ever since 😁

[@nattiej7218]

under rated in Australia what rock do you live under?

[@finnhoile2377]

Been listening to these guys since Classical Mushroom. My fave band on the planet. Albums are awesome and they are amazing live. I prefer the older (Classical, BP, Converting) albums over their newer stuff, but can appreciate their new stuff too.

[@finnhoile2377]

And I have only seen them live in Australia.

[@quinxx12]

what was your first track? :D

[@WebNstyne]

My brother was heavy into trance in the late 90s-00s. i remember hearing the name Infected Mushroom, but don't remember any of the tunes. i looked them up when i was getting back into trance... this is the only group who i have actually listened to entire albums of and enjoyed!

[@TheGaoNan]

For years i was and still am a huge fan of IM, about a year ago i've managed to talk with both guys and told Erez that his music helped me in a difficult phase of my life, his sincerity and real appreciation is unbelievable, even though all of the success hes such an humble and honored guy, will be in my heart for ever. Thank you Erez and Duvdev. Keep making music that change lives for the better.

[@zecchinoroni]

I talked to Erez and had the same experience. I was blown away. He’s been doing this for 27 years and he was talking like they are some brand new band trying to get off the ground and told me he was so grateful that people actually want to listen to their music lol. So nice. And he wasn’t feeling shy because he smoked two blunts during the show 😂 He jumped off stage after the show and talked to literally EVERY single person that didn’t leave immediately.

[@Wenro]

Erez is a musical genius!

[@danielchapa7195]

Since finding this performance I've been watching it at least once a day, and spending the rest of the day humming or singing the tracks. I guess I've been infected again. The Pretender rocks!!

[@kikohugos]

They are the best and they always will be! Making great EDM music since 1998, i m a fan since that time, and their evolution was mind blowing and remarkble! keep on going! Portugal has you in our hearts and souls!

[@adj789]

I've been a huge fan since 99 and I love death metal and I love that they have an actual guitar player and I got to see them twice live here in Atlanta, they didn't have the full band but it was awesome

We were lucky enough to catch a few of their shows a few years back in Winnipeg. The venues were fairly small but full. They were some of the best parties ever. I'm glad to see them flourish and succeed.

[@enilenis]

This video gives me shivers every time I watch it. This is pure synchronicity. I so regret missing their concert, when they were in town. No band like it. I wish they were around when I was young. The closest thing I had was Prodigy. Brilliant in their own way.

So joyful this popped into my feed today! I've seen them three times in Washington State and they never disappoint...counting the days until I'm Infected again!!! XOX XOX XOX

[@revigres]

Some of these radio people always have such perfectly paced, articulate and soothing voices. Especially this one. I am jelly.

[@revigres]

By the way, I got "infected" around 16 years ago when I was in high school. Their music changed my life in a very good way. It was a spiritual perceptual change that played a significant role in shaping who I am. Of course they weren't the only band that had such an impact on me, there were plenty more from very different genres. As Amit said,music does indeed change the world.
