Funk, Style, Quality—what more could you want? FSQ, the five-person production dream team with deep ties to funk progenitor George Clinton and beloved house duo Soul Clap, are dedicated to keeping the funk alive and bringing top-quality rhythms to your ears. FSQ delivers on their name with groovy original dance tunes, remixes, and jubilant DJ sets filled with deep cuts that seamlessly bring old and new school together. Resident DJ Chuck Da Fonk (a.k.a. Chuck Fishman), keyboardist/producer Morgan Wiley, guitar hero Tate Masimore (f.k.a. Chas Bronz), multi-instrumentalist One Era, and hip-hop producer G Koop provide the manpower behind FSQ.

Chuck brings his infectious enthusiasm and encyclopedic musical knowledge to the decks, taking FSQ DJ sets into the funkiest corners of dance music, including deep Balearic grooves, rare P-Funk B-sides, ’80s boogie funk, rare new wave 12″s, and current underground house cuts. On stage, for live performances, FSQ is supported by The S.Q.’s band, featuring some of the funkiest ringers in the music world, including drummer Andrew Marsh and guest star vocal power from the likes of Dolette McDonald, Nikki B / Amazonian Rockstar, and Lola Adonna from 79.5. After hosting a fortuitous 2013 studio session with Dr. Funkenstein and Soul Clap, Chuck and Clinton’s late nephew Sa’d “The Hourchild” Ali formed FSQ to keep bringing classic funk artists and sounds into electronic music. FSQ’s breezy, funky debut, “Zulu Congo Call,” followed in January 2014 on Soul Clap Records to dance media praise, including a 9/10 in Mixmag and support from Pete Tong.

FSQ has continued to serve up a quality selection of vibrant, heavily instrumentated, disco-leaning remixes for 79.5, Damon Albarn, Macy Gray, Kraak & Smaak, Soul Clap, and more, along with fresh originals on Midnight Riot Records, Ultra Music, Boogie Angst, Jalapeno Records, Wolf + Lamb, Bastard Jazz, and, of course, Soul Clap Records. Their 2020 debut album, Reprise Tonight, was lauded by Bandcamp, Francois K, and Louie Vega. FSQ is currently sculpting a new album titled Nightlife Geography, an inspired ode to clubbing scenes of yesteryear, due mid-2026.
