The True Underground Sound Of Rome

The True Underground Sound of Rome is an electronic music collective formed in Rome in the early 1990s, founded by Chicco Furlotti. They drew inspiration from the native House music styles of Chicago and Detroit, blending these influences with their own vision steeped in electronic sounds that helped shape the deep house and techno scenes. Their work includes influential releases like "Minimal Vision," "The Bermuda Triangle," and "Secret Doctrine," many of which were originally released in the 1990s and later remastered or reissued, reflecting a growing cult appreciation over time. The collective’s sound is known for its minimalist approach combined with deep, hypnotic grooves characteristic of that era’s underground electronic music.

Their records often feature collaborations with key figures such as Stefano Di Carlo, and their music retains a timeless quality that resonates with fans of classic deep house and techno. Notable tracks like "Vertigo" gained attention when featured in influential compilations during the 90s, and their label Vibraphone Records, though short-lived, left a significant mark on the underground dance music landscape. Today, they continue to be celebrated for their pioneering contributions to electronic music originating from Rome, holding a special place in the history of European house and techno.
