Fred Falke assure la continuité de la French Touch grâce à un son reconnaissable instantanément avec des mélodies recherchées et des lignes de basses efficaces. Il se produit également en live dans le monde entier, offrant une performance unique ou il combine les instruments et les machines.

Il est également co-auteur ou producteur de chansons d'artistes pop britanniques, tels qu'Ellie Goulding, Florrie, ou Will Young[2].
