OK, a few bits and pieces on Young Master Fake.
He was tipped for stardom in The Observer Music Monthly recently:
<

FYI,
"...Now returning to Border Community, Nathan Fake is set to release his
debut album 'Drowning In A Sea Of Love', a truly enchanting collection of
rocktronica at its finest - loaded with casio riffs, soaring fake-guitar
lead lines, single live take recordings and a heap of lighters-in-the-air
moments.
Containing the original live take of the psychedelic epic 'The Sky Was
Pink' (prior to its remix transformation into the electro anthem of last
summer), in addition to recent 7" 'Grandfathered' this is a ballsy, gutsy
eleven track wall of computer-noise, underlined by a rock-solid production
ethic which belies Fake's tender years..."

I know it's only 'progressive house', but (for some reason) I like it.
Also noticed the following in Philip Sherburne's blog at

Drowning in a sea of love
The first 62 seconds of Apparat's remix of Nathan Fake's "Charlie's House"
? give or take a few uncountable milliseconds spent exhaling ? are enough
to send me to my knees, arms thrown up like Willem Defoe in Platoon.
Possibly the most perfect minute of music I've heard yet this year. Viva
electremo!
Not sure where this Apparat remix is available though.
