An interview I conducted with internationally touring live act Infected Mushroom about their summer tour and forthcoming album backstage prior to their performance during the 2011 edition of the 3 day outdoor World Electronic Music Festival (WEMF) in Madawaska Valley.
Last week (Aug 12-14) was the return of the World Electronic Music Festival (WEMF) and along with it came arguably the biggest line-up it’s ever brought to Canada in it’s 15 years.
Among the international names present were Skrillex, Rusko, Mark EG, Stanton Warriors, Christopher Lawrence, Digitalism, SS, Donald Glaude, Sydney Blu, Jack Beats, Calvin Harris, Andy C, Noisia, Pendulum, and the festival’s lone headlining live performance – Infected Mushroom.
With a brand new single just released and a new album dropping in early 2012, Infected Mushroom are promoting their album by hitting the global tour circuit. Being the most well known and longest running electronic music festival in Canada, WEMF was the perfect stop over for them in Canada.
I was fortunate to be able to interview Infected Mushroom backstage before their performance in the early hours of Saturday morning – take a look at our brief discussion surrounding the tour and the forthcoming album followed by a segment of their live performance.
