Before I got into Aphex and the whole IDM thing, I used to be into this french group called Deep Forest. I was like the biggest fan of them. But then I discovered Aphex and haven't gone back. But still, I'm surprised that there's not even one mention of them here!!
Come on, there must be someone here who's heard of them! :-z

Oh yes! I also know them longer than I know Aphex twin. I still listen to their music. That song, Bulgarian melody is SOOOO BEAUTIFUL! It's still one of my favourite songs, after so many years. (That girl's voice! , that piano! YÃ Y!)
deep folk song 's cool too. Pity it's only one minute.

French band I like at the moment is 'Backstab' It's like metal mixed with Indian and techno, Very nice. I love 'L'oeil du clone' and 'Opaque' which even has a bit slaphappy jungle in.

well...let's just say the vocals aren't in english. More like pygmies and forest people singing. But Deep Forest are great becuase they mix tribal with electronica.

Enigma's good too, although I think I prefer Deep Forest...
BTW: What do you think of my new avatar? That's the logo for my artist name "Glekken". See, it's like a backwards G turned into a K. Cool, huh?

The only thing positive I found about the first DF cd was that they used a Roland JD-800 for synths. In a time when the JD-800 was expensive as hell, the CD worked as a nice placebo.

I had their first album at one point, but I have to agree with jand for the most part. There were 1 or 2 decent tracks on the album, though.
I don't think you can really compare them with Enigma though - although I've only heard Enigma's first two albums. Enigma's first album was better.

sweet lullaby is an amazing track, and the only thing apollo 440 have ever done thats worth listening to is their remix of this track
principles of lust by enigma is another really easy on the ear track i can;t get enough of. maybe its more about 'at the time', its going back a bit

I mean, really.
come on, Enigma & Deep Forrest are so awful.. no original idea in there at all.. only thing missing is whale sounds, some pan flute..
I'm really surprised so many people here like that muzak crap.
surprised and embarressed.

I cannot express my deep felt contempt for this kind of music.
listening to that stuff is like somebody vomiting in your ear.

there's 8 mixes of sweet lullaby, they're all interesting to listen to, different people's interpretations etc
the ambient mix is nice, i used to listen to it a lot when i used to stay up all night and go to bed around 10am, last thing in the morning
