What Is Underground House Music?

Underground house music isn’t just a genre—it’s a mindset. Defined by its raw, unpolished sound and culture-first ethos, underground house exists outside the commercial spotlight. Often born in basements, lofts, and secret clubs, it’s all about community, creativity, and connection.
