Infected Mushroom write Chinese School Essays and Win tickets to the Show!

If you’ve been living in the trance sphere, there’s no need to describe the brilliance of Erez Aizen and Amit “Duvdev” Duvedevani, or better known as Infected Mushroom (http://www.myspace.com/infectedmushroomcentral). After their last Beijing show in May, the Israeli producers, DJs or even rock stars - whatever you prefer to call them - are back in town on Christmas Eve.

Currently living in Los Angeles, these electronic inventors released their ninth album Legend of the Black Shawarma this year. The duo has expanded their team into a five-man band and will perform their full live set at the upcoming Beijing show – for once, we are lucky to be Bejingers!
