, playing 1960s and 1970s folk rock-inspired music on acoustic guitar. The name of the duo Infinity Ink came when the duo were playing in Moldova on their tour. They noticed a nearby factory that was called 'Infinity Inc'. So they adopted the name changing the "c" to a "k", giving it a completely new twist. Infinity Ink found fame through two tracks released in 2012. First was "Games" on the Hot Creations label followed by the single " Infinity" on Crosstown Rebels. Infinity was sampled by "Flo Rida" in his 2013 single "Can't Believe It". The same year, the duo secured a residency for Jamie Jones paradise party at DC10 in Ibiza, a slot that they still play to this day.
