shecter (Ex-Avtipus frontman) worked with infected on 3 tracks on one of his albums, most notable was, of course, Ra'ash.

i was bored so i translated a part of it (jason i hope its ok, contact mods if not...)
After the praised co-operation with Berry Sakharoff, Infected Mushroom, the most successful Israeli trance band, are back with a new album: “Converting Vegetarians”.
Their last 3 albums sold tens of thousands so far, and Erez Aizen and Amit Duvdevani had put themselves as a role model for many Israeli artists.
The new album, which will defiantly establish their position as the undisputed kings of the scene, is an album which strays from the classic “trance album” formula. “It’s a double album, which we were working on for quite a long time” says Duvdev – half of the team. “On the first hand it’s trance – our style, but on the other hand its freestyle which is undefined, many styles that we collected in the past year for one project.
- There are quite a few tracks with an underground feeling.
Amit: “Some of the tracks are commercial, for others you can call underground, some of the tracks are even hard to listen, there are a few commercial songs. So there’s no definite direction. It’s more of a compilation of stuff we collected this year”.
- Are you tired of trance?
Amit: “It’s not that we’re tired of it. This time, after three albums, we decided to do various stuff simultaneously. The goal was to make an album that will be different, only freestyle, but we created enough tracks to fit to a trance album as well so we decided to release a double album”
- What is your opinion about the publicity from the press, about the connection between electronic music, and trance in particular, to drugs?
Amit: “The situation is better these days, there are articles, coverage’s etc. today we get a less harsh reference, and we are not being treated like the leaders of a drugs scene anymore. Maybe it has been like that before, but today it’s different, we are being invited to student events and such. To tell you the truth, the cross-over with Berry kind of moved us to places we haven’t been before.
EDIT: i continued, but its still not the full one:
- Beside Berry Sakharoff, you’ve worked with Eyal Chechter. How was it - working with artists which are not identified with trance music?
Erez: “First, it made the process a lot more varied, but both of them use electronic elements in their music.
Amit: “It depends on how open minded the artist is. In this case, both of them were and wanted to do this. When a rock artist says: ‘OK, I’m willing to do this’ its easy to work. There were no arguments, no pressure. Maybe some other artist not as obligated as Berry and Eyal would have said: ‘I don’t like what I’m hearing’ and then nothing would have came out. In both case the work was very flowing.
- Your friend Avihen Livne (Cosma) was killed a month ago. The next day you had to perform in front of 3000 people. It definitely hadn’t been easy.
Amit: “First of all it was hard for us and it came as a very big shock to us. But you must understand that in this job, even if I’m really sick there are a thousand people waiting for me. So even if I don’t want to, and I really don’t feel like performing, I must do it.
We are going soon to a party where Cosma should have played. So we’re doing a gesture to him and his family. There’s nothing you can do, it’s really sad. I’m sure that others would have moved on even something had happened to me.
- Do you play Avihen’s music?
Amit: “We are playing many tracks by him in our sets, at least four, going to launch parties for him and promoting his album. Doing what we can.
Erez: “There’s not much to say about this. Avihen was a good friend. The only thing we can do is play his music as much as we can.
- Where do you see yourselves in 5 years?
Amit: “Me and Erez are always trying to advance with our music. I believe that in trance, we’ve reached certain borders and crossed many. There are always new scenes. We are always trying to succeed in other areas, to see we can do other things, and not just trance, but it doesn’t mean we are through with trance.

Sounds great... really. Everything new, freestyle etc is good. Same stuff over and over again is bad!
It's going to be VERY interesting to hear the new IM album.
Btw. please translate the whole interview  Ut ameris, amabilis esto. |
