Old Post: Who The Heck Is Fake Blood???

For the last couple years there has been one name that has consistently been hailed as "the voice of modern day rave." That name is Fake Blood. Until recently, he remained anonymous, pumping out incredible remixes of the newest Euro dance tunes. He had a particular style that transcended genres in dance music, and just made you wanna go CRAZY.



Here's a few examples of what I'm talking about.



Fake Blood - Mars (Original Mix)

Until just recently, no one knew who the heck was behind the bloody name, but within the last 6 months that has changed. The name behind Fake Blood's sound is DJ Touché. You may know of him as Theo Keating, one half of the duo of The Wiseguys. The Wiseguys' bleeps, 'Ooh La La' and 'Start The Commotion' where featured in Mitsubishi car commercials. However today, DJ Touché has been changing his sound considerably. Check out this bleep that he released last year around this time.

Another project from Touché is The Black Ghosts, a second group with Simon Lord, (the other half of The Wiseguys) and they have a lot of huge bleeps out, but the one I'm posting is remixed by Fake Blood.
