Since its explosion in the early 90's with Black Box and Double Dee Italian Dance music has come a long way. On one side it developed into commercial pop verging towards techno and trance, on the other it evolved into quality House music, appreciated by the most sophisticated DJ's. The latter seems to be the sound the market is oriented to at the moment. This is confirmed by the fact that several productions in that style have 'crossed-over' recently and have entered the international sales charts. 'The Italian Job' wants to be the manifesto of quality Dance music from Italy. Irma Records' artists have always been present in the international charts and these days Happy by Max Sedgley, originally released on Irma On Canvas, is one of the most played and charted Italian, although UK produced, releases in the World. In this selection you will find another Italian hit of the moment by Benny Benassi and other sales / club chart entries like Planet Funk, Andrea Doria, Dino Lenny, Jestofunk, Stylophonic, Tutto Matto, Par-T-One, Santos, DB Boulevard, Don Carlos, Pasta Boys, Banda Favela, Belladonna, Claudio Coccoluto and Black Mighty Orchestra. No other compilation has given such a comprehensive report on the real Italian club music scene so far."
