When it comes to records that peak at 40 you can often break them down into four groups. There's those you're surprised only made number 40, those more obscure records by well known artists, those hardly anyone knows by someone hardly anyone knows and those which are obscure to many but have a big underground following.
This one fits the latter, being a big house record of it's time and played by the likes of Pete Tong on Radio 1. It is the one and only record ever made by TC 1992, but there is a reason for that.
They come from Italy and when it comes to dance music from Italy it often isn't clear exactly who is in each group and who exactly is involved in each record.
All of the TC 1992 members have been in the FPI Project at some point. They were the Italian act to chart in 1989 who were nothing to do with Black Box or Cappella with their only Top 40 hit being "Going Back To My Roots / Rich In Paradise". The F in FPI stands for Fratty as in Marco Fratty, P for Presti as in Corrado Presti and I for Intrallazzi as in Roberto Intrallazzi.
In TC 1992 these members are known as Marco Frattini, Corrado Foresti and Roberto Biffi. There is also a fourth member called Luciano Bericchia. In 1991 the four of them released a record called "1991" as TC 1991.
They also released records as TC 1993, TC 1994 and TC 1995 with each record coming in the year in the artist name. They didn't limit it to one record a year as a collective. There's quite a long list of other aliases they've released record under over the years.
