Leaders of the Italian house music movement of the late '80s, Black Box was in the main comprised of lodge DJ Daniele Davoli, information processing system whiz Mirko Limoni and classical clarinetist Valeric Semplici, a triple of studio apartment musicians known jointly as the Groove Groove Melody production team. Acclaimed among the well-nigh successful producers in all of Italian dance music, Groove Groove Melody helmed lashings of singles each class at their peak; in 1989 they teamed with singer and poser Katrin (born Catherine Quinol) as Black Box, debuting with the single "Ride on Time." Not only was the disc a immense hit at place, merely it shortly crossed o'er into the British pop charts, landing at the number one maculation for six-spot consecutive weeks despite the arguing which erupted in the wake of the discovery that it included uncredited samples of Loleatta Holloway's disco music single "Love Sensation." A series of Black Box hits followed, among them "I Don't Know Anybody Else" (a Top Ten smash in the U.S. as substantially) and "Everybody Everybody," which featured vocals by Martha Wash; the group's debut LP, 1990's Dreamworld, was as well a success. They returned in 1991 with "Strike It Up," some other American Top Ten ledger entry, as well as the Sundry Up! assemblage; additionally, the Groove Groove Melody squad scored with material recorded under a miscellany of other aliases, among them Starlight ("Numero Uno") and Mixmaster ("Heroic Piano"). After a long hiatus, Black Box returned in 1996 with the record album Positive Attitude, which went for the most part unnoticed.
