Artist
A Forest Mighty Black. German downtempo, fronted by producer Bernd Kunz, with Michael Schwalbe and Rainer Trüby also credited as members. Freiburg-based, blending Brazilian and fusion influences with trip-hop. They came up on Munich's Compost Records in the mid-nineties, and the debut album, Mellowdramatic (1997), is an hour of melancholic Rhodes-and-breaks downtempo pulling in drum and bass, hip-hop, jazz and Brazilian flavours. 'Rebirth' is track 9, and a remix album followed in 1998. Kunz later moved into Detroit-leaning deep house as AFMB and with the Lost Men on Drumpoet Community.
