Terry Francis:
By the time fabric london opened it's doors, Terry Francis was already known as one of the key spearheads for London’s emerging tech house scene. Throughout the late 90s he was putting out innovative house records with a distinctive punchy flair via the likes of Wiggle, Eye 4 Sound, Swag, and Pagan - labels that are still highly treasured by today’s generation of upcoming DJs. Recently some of his classic works have been reissued for new audiences to discover, while he’s also revived his Eye 4 Sound imprint as an outlet for releasing his fresh material. When we were defining our Saturday night music policy, the London-based sound pioneered by Francis was one of our key inspirations, and he was enlisted to provide the sound track in our space every weekend. Other guests were invited to join us, but he was always at the heart of our sound world. He’s remained at the helm of Saturday nights at the club for the last two decades, consistently displaying a defined style of DJing that’s proven timeless. Like the seminal records he’s produced over the length of his career, he has true staying power.

Keith Reilly:
Fun fact: Keith owns around 500,000 pieces of vinyl. They live on palettes in a warehouse. He knows it's a problem, that he's helpless to stop buying records, and he knows that the more he buys (sometimes he spends as much as £2000 a week) the more he buries himself in tons, literally tons, of plastic and cardboard.

But strangely, it might be this obsession that is key to the success of Fabric, the club he built decadea ago opposite London's Smithfield's meat market in a vast disused cold storage unit.

Keith is reticent to take credit for the success of the club himself, which years on still sees queues snaking down the street whenever its doors are open. He is much happier to defer this to his team, a loyal group who offer utter commitment to the club.

"We've grown up together, been in the trenches together. We are all here because of each other. I wouldn't be here without them," he says.

"This club is nothing other than a tribute to everyone who has been here and everyone who has supported what we do, and it's their acceptance and their support that has gifted us the privilege to do it. Our joy is simply to find new music, and play it. I just want people to love this music the way I do."

Keith's proud of staying absolutely true to himself throughout. This devotion was what drew John Peel to record his first and last compilation album for Fabric, and even to DJ at the club. A late night phone call with Peel - during which Reilly inadvertently revealed he had every one of Peel's radio shows recorded and archived on tape - both showed that they shared an obsessive passion for music and ultimately persuaded him to work with the club, something he was initially hesitant to do. They were kindred spirits and Keith regards the Peel coup among his proudest achievements.
