FCL

FCL (We Play House)

Let’s avoid questions as to what FCL stands for: it’s the abbreviation and calling name for FC Leiejongens, the local football team with San Soda as right-winger and Red D as goalkeeper… So now you already know who this outfit consists of. San Soda is the young and eager producer who has racked up one big release after another since his debut in 2008, and Red D is the seasoned veteran who has been playing house music in its broadest sense all over Belgium and beyond since the early 90ies.

Their spiritual home is We Play House Recordings, the label set up by Red D in 2008 with the initial purpose to release music by San Soda. Since then the label has been a home for more than just San Soda alone, releasing music by Reggie Dokes, Russ Gabriel and Raoul Lambert amongst others. It was only logical that San Soda and Red D ended up in the studio together, hence the collaboration FCL.

The first studio work the pair indulged in was a remix for WPH002 of ‘Highway’, a track by Belgians Maxim Lany and Ramon Tapia, shortly after followed by an edit of an old Reggie Dokes track for WPH004. Some remixes followed suit and it wasn’t long before ‘Vocals For Everyone’ hit the shops, the first full E.P. of FCL on We Play House Recordings. This E.P. featured the tracks ‘Let’s Go’ and ‘More Than Seven’, the latter with vocals by Belgian jazz diva Lady Linn. Both tracks are already house music history, being played and charted by almost everyone from Dennis Ferrer to Dixon, and surely two of the most memorable pieces of house music in 2010.

A remix of Stuffa’s ‘Proof’ on Berlin’s Trunkfunk followed suit and was recently licensed to house moguls Defected. November of 2011 saw the duo release a split E.P. with VFB, the moniker for the collaboration between Danilo Plessow of M.C.D.E. fame and Red D. To be expected early 2012 is the ‘More Vocals For Everyone E.P.’ on WPH, the much-anticipated follow-up to the ‘Vocals For Everyone E.P.’ and also a glimpse of the upcoming FCL album to be released further into 2012.

On the gig front FCL have been playing together or as San Soda and Red D all over Europe and beyond in 2011, and with a second gig in Panoramabar planned for February 2012 FCL seems only to be gaining more momentum in the near future.

Gimme an F, gimme a…
