Fred Falke

Biography

From Toulouse to Hollywood, twenty-five years of French Touch.

Born in Toulouse, Fred Falke broke through in 2000 with "Intro", co-written with Alan Braxe. The track became part of the French Touch movement, then led by artists such as Daft Punk, Cassius, Étienne de Crécy and Air.

In London, he joined Xenomania, the British hit factory behind some of the biggest pop records of their time: Cher's "Believe", Kylie Minogue, the Pet Shop Boys. His productions for Mini Viva and Amelia Lily reached the UK top 10.

His career then took him to the United States, where he became one of the most in-demand DJs in Los Angeles. He held residencies at the city's most coveted clubs, including, in West Hollywood, Soho House and the Sunset at the Edition Hotel, dubbed the new Studio 54 of LA. He has played the Oscars after-parties several times, becoming a discreet but essential name in the Hollywood film world.

Based in Los Angeles, Fred Falke co-founded Ampersounds with Zen Freeman, a musical project born from their collaboration on the Californian electronic scene. Their collaboration with Rufus Wainwright was praised by Billboard on its release.

Alongside his DJ career, he has built a substantial body of work as a producer and composer: albums, film soundtracks and video game music. His official remixes, commissioned by labels and international artists, are too many to count. His remix of "Golden Cage" by The Whitest Boy Alive became one of the defining tracks of the blog house and nu disco movement.

On stage, he has played major international festivals: Ultra Korea in Seoul, SXSW in Austin, CRSSD in San Diego, Pacific in Los Angeles, Lovebox in London and Melt! in Germany.
