Underground Statements

Established in 2000 and formerly named U.T (underground torsion) Untold is a southampton based music collective made up of djs, producers, record labels and designers who have travelled far and wide over many years to the furthest reaches of dance music experience. Searching out the best in the game for inspiration to help forge their unique sound and uncompromising party format

Mission Statements

Quite simply to produce, promote, provide and preserve non commercial underground electronic music, making sure its' unique sound is not lost in the commercial warfare

Quality dance music is our passion. We believe in. We love it. We defend it. We strive to support, and deliver our own and others finest house and techno.

We are eager to communicate and find people who share our passions for proven true technological underground grooves.

Whether you are big or small fish, performers, producers or just like getting the funk down, your all welcome.

We feel that outside of london the music we're researching has'nt had the exposure it
deserves and that the south coasts club scene has been sterile because of it. Clubbers
hav'nt had the opportunity to experience true house and techno music presented in the correct way inthe well known venues around southampton. Once our goals are achieved people will be able to enjoy regular nights of undiluted, funky, futuristic music at parties that other promoters in town will not be able to replicate. Those with there ear to the ground will already know what were all about but its time for us to suface. We look forward to seeing many new faces in the future
REPORT for duty the Untold uprising is about to begin. (voice of untold)
