Loud are Eitan Reiter and Kobi Toledano from the Krayot (suburbs of Haifa in the north of Israel). They’ve never studies musical formally, but were always surrounded by it and grew up listening to music and collecting it. Kobi discovered trance in a forest party in 1994 and in 2000 started to experiment with producing it. Eitan got exposed also in the early 90s with some old Goa tapes, and as soon as he found the Impulse Tracker he started to write music. The guys met in 2005 through a mutual friend who introduced them and started to work together.
Eitan also produces minimal techno & trance and chillout under his own name, and is part of the downtempo electronica duo Unoccupied.
