Heard about Infected Mushroom for years, but never heard them. I started listening to some on the main system recently. Wow, what an imaging workout, both for the system and the brain.

I am not that fond of the electronica that predominates with rote, repetitive drum and synth tracks that have little evidence of human intervention. Infected Mushroom is pretty symphonic in a lot of their cuts.

They have zillion tunes.

There's a lot of gunk to wade through Carl but a lot of gems too. :)

I find many many masterworks here and some electronic music unknown to me, thanks to all.
neverthless I must add my choice; an Italian artist very strange for his peculiar performing (he performs with optical headlight... please see the video) fantastic for the frequent coreographic use of Nixies tubes.
His name is: Massimo Magrini Aka "Bad Sector".
I got many cd's very very well recorded.
This is NOT music for all tastes, otherwise it's overall interesting...

again from one of my favourite cd


and from the rare and out of print cd "Kosmodrom"


just my two cents

IDK about that! They have changed style over the years though and earlier stuff was more repetitive trance, I think it's all good but I'm not a big fan of trance. I saw them live in a venue with a massive sound system. You need earplugs, but it was worth it for the experience. :)

When you need to wear earplugs @ a live music concert something is not right.
Might as well stay home and watch music videos on Blu-ray.
That way you have control of the volume level. :b

I guess you'll never get to experience a rock or electronica show... too bad! ;)

If it isn't an acoustic show in a house or an orchestra unamplified... hearing protection is pretty much a must.
