Italo House is a form of dance music that emerged in Italy in the late 1980s and early 1990s, characterized by its upbeat tempo, lush synthesizer layers, and prominent piano riffs. It draws from Italo disco's melodic elements and infuses them with the burgeoning influences of classic house music, including the use of electronic drums and repetitive 4/4 beats. The sound is often euphoric and anthemic, frequently incorporating vocals that range from soulful to ethereal. Artists such as 49ers and Jinny exemplify the genre's knack for catchy hooks, while groups like Black Box and Jestofunk delve into funkier and more groove-oriented territories. The sun-soaked and melodic nature of Italo House made it a staple of the European club scene and a feel-good soundtrack to many dance floors worldwide.
