FOJC is inspired by both genre bending and creating alter egos to match their songs' vibes and videos, having released an eclectic range of singles in 2018 & 2017 - the downtempo trip hoppy #Noirstar (Memories of His City) on 3/3/18, the villainous, wicked winter and Tim Burton-esque “All My Friends Are Ice Queens” on 12/12/17 and the electro anthem Ghosts of Paradise in Oct 1017. FOJC remained independent until 2014 when they signed to a 2-single deal with Bungalo/Universal Music Group. Their debut song for the label “Va Va Voom to the Moon,” received consistent airplay on Vegas’ commercial station Mix 94.1. They left the deal and continued to self-release in 2015.

FOJC was offered a monthly residency at Las Vegas’ Copa Room. They created a full production show called “Fatale Originale,” integrating special guests into their band on rotating mini fest stages and luring the audience onto an exciting, artistic, interactive playground. In November they took a break from the residency to tour Hong Kong invited by the charity Daughters of Cambodia. Upon their return to Las Vegas, they won the House Music DJ award for Best Local Band given by local scene DJs.
