    Forro in the Dark respectfully borrows its name and musical style from the northeastern region of Brazil while giving that style a modern twist. The group's sturdy rhythms are infused with sexy globalized grooves as we hear on Today's Top Tune, "Silence is Golden," which features the sultry sound of Brazilian Girls' Sabina Sciubba.
