Dunkelziffer was a German rock band that stylistically combined African rhythms and reggae with influences from the New German Wave, which had just emerged at the time.
The band was founded in 1981 by Cologne musicians from the Stollwerck scene. The group was designed so that there should be no rigid structures, but each member could be a composer and everyone could contribute their creativity and spontaneity equally at all times. She played numerous concerts lasting several hours; According to the Musikexpress , the musicians made music "without compromising on fashion, trend, image or the common 4/4 schemes."
