Kruder & Dorfmeister, named after Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister, is an Austrian duo most known for their downtempo-dub remixes of pop, hip-hop, and drum and bass songs. Their remixes are often flavored with bossa nova or jazz sounds; some of their better-known works include remixes of Madonna's "Nothing Really Matters," Depeche Mode's "Useless," Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's "1st of tha Month," and Roni Size's "Heroes." Many of these are collected on the double album The K & D Sessions.

Although they are best known for their remixing work, the duo has also gained a reputation around Europe for their live DJ performances, and to a lesser extent, their original compositions. Presently, Dorfmeister works with Rupert Huber under the name Tosca. Kruder released a solo album under the name Peace Orchestra in 1999.
