There are multiple artists with this name:
1) A French new age duo
2) An Italian ‘shred’ metal project active in 2004
1) Deep Forest is a musical group consisting of two French musicians, Michel Sanchez and Eric Mouquet. They compose a new kind of world music, sometimes called ethnic electronica, mixing ethnic with electronic sounds and dance beats or chillout beats. Their sound has been described as an “ethno-introspective ambient world music”. They were nominated for a Grammy Award in 1993 for Best World Music Album, and in 1996 they won the Award for the album Boheme. The group also became World Music Awards Winner - French group with the highest 1995 world sales. Their albums have sold over 10 million copies.
Michel Sanchez came up with the idea of mixing Baka Pygmy chants with modern music after hearing on-site recordings of these tribes. Along with Eric Mouquet they created the project Deep Forest. Their first self-titled album (nominated for a Grammy) was released in 1992, with
Sweet Lullaby being the smash single which would put Deep Forest on the musical map (UK Top 10 hit). The song “Sweet Lullaby” is adapted from a traditional song from the Solomon Islands. The album Deep Forest was dance-driven and the samples were heavily digitised and edited. It was re-released as a limited edition in 1994 under the name World Mix.
For their second album Boheme, Eric and Michel left behind the sounds of the forest and ventured into Eastern Europe bringing tender, lonesome Hungarian and Gypsy chants with upbeat, yet sad, music.

IMHO: The "Albumest" album - Deep Forest 1993 and so like by me...but DF - so the Perfect Sound & phylosophy out of time without compromissions, as Enigma becames by regrets for me since "Voyager" with making by simples-primitives PC-soft sounds...
