With the future of FOCO brought into disrepute with a negative political campaign, negative media campaign and the team fracturing from within, the end is near.

With police raids in the air, the FOCO Club is no more but the influence of the short 18 months of operation will go on to influence the trajectory of Brisbane creatives for years to come.

Woven into the fabric of Brisbane’s history is a very visible, yet crucially unrecognised part of our social culture. Where great names have been built on stages, city streets and town halls… the history of the walls which held these grand events are often left unspoken.

Building The Scene is an episodic podcast that looks to shine a light on the history of some of Brisbane’s most iconic, unknown and revolutionary nightlife venues. Each part of the story diving into facets of culture relayed from first hand accounts and extrapolated by industry specialists.

Built by a team of passionate researchers, audio engineers, and radio personalities, Building The Scene contains stories ranging from incredible changes and progression in Brisbane’s society down to the seedy underbelly of the city.
