Formed in 2004, FGFC820 is the hard EBM project from well-known and respected New York City DJs Rexx Arkana and Dräcos. Drawing on joint and separate influences ranging from old school industrial to modern gabber, Arkana and Dräcos combine to create a sound that is at once melodic and relentlessly rhythmic. Their debut EP, "The Hanging Garden," was released in 2005. They have also contributed tracks to several "Endzeit Bunkertracks" samplers (Alfa-Matrix), "A Tribute to The Cure" (Equinoxe), the Noise Terror Productions (Johan van Roy of Suicide Commando) label compilation and many other German samplers. The band signed to Germany's NoiTekk Records in May 2006 and has released one EP ("Defense Condition 2," 2011) and three albums ("Urban Audio Warfare," 2006; "Law & Ordnance," 2008; "Homeland Insecurity," 2012) for the label.
FGFC820 has also played live in various festivals, including: Wave Gothic Treffen (Germany), Gothic Festival (Belgium), Kinetik 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 (Canada), Resistanz Festival (U.K.) as well as others in Lima (Peru), Vittoria (Spain), Porto (Portugal), Tijuana, Celaya and Mexico City (Mexico) and throughout the United States and Canada.
