Rainer Trueby is a former member of Germany's internationally well known Compost-project A Forest Mighty Black from Freiburg.

He is a real vinyl-junkie and has compiled the fantastic and still in-demand European-Jazz Brazil fusion compilations Gluecklich-Vol. I, - IV, and the Nitrogen - Trip Hop Sources From The Past-compilation with Placebo and Michael Bundt for Compost.

He also compiled with Gilles Peterson Talkin' Jazz - Vol. 3 on Talkin' Loud. After a split with A Forest Mighty Black, he has enforced and developed his own project on Compost called TrÃÂ¼by Trio (which is in fact Rainer TrÃÂ¼by & Fauna Flash).

Compost's Fauna Flash are the first German drum & bass outfit getting props from the Metalheadz posse and their tracks are played by DJs like Peshay, Kemistry & Storm, Fabio, Grooverider, Kabuki and are listed by Gilles Peterson´s personal charts in Straight No Chaser. In his personal Top 3-DJ chart, Gilles Peterson voted Rainer Trueby for the best DJ in the world in 1998!

Their style is somewhere between Jazz, Brazil, Nu-Disco, Boogie and Downbeat, but always the connoisseur deep root down stuff.

The Trueby Trio has contributed a track "Donaueschingen" for The Future Sound Of Jazz Vol. 4 and have done remixes for Frederic Galliano's "Plis Infinis No 2"(F-Communications), Tab Two´s "Belle Affaire"(Virgin) and old Latin jazz genius Bobby Matos "Guiro Electro" (Ubiquity /USA).

Trueby Trio's newest remixes are:

Louis Bacalov "La Seduzione / Nago" (Right Tempo)

Miyazawa "Anjos Irmaos" (Afro Sick Rec. Japan)

Extended Spirit "Solid Water" RMX,(Sonar Kollektiv/Dialog Rec.)

Yasushi Ide "A Certain Peace" (-, Japan)

Nitin Sawhney "The Immigrant" (Outcaste/Tommy Boy)
