In 1999, Falcon released his first EP on Roulé, Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk's music label. Before producing on Roulé, he worked in the A&R department at Virgin. Following the release of his EP, he worked with Bangalter to form the group Together, officially releasing two songs "So Much Love to Give" and "Together." He has done a significant number of remixes and DJ sets since.

In 2013, he was featured on Daft Punk's fourth studio album, Random Access Memories on the final track "Contact." The song was based on a sample Falcon and Bangalter had originally used and performed while doing DJ sets as Together.[2][3]

In 2022, Falcon and Alan Braxe debuted new music on a new record label Smugglers Way, an imprint of Domino, that intends to release new and old French house music from the duo and from other artists.[4] In addition to this, the pair announced the two had begun making music as a duo named Falcon & Braxe - with their first single in March, their first EP in August, and a debut solo album intended for release in early 2023. Their debut single features vocals from Panda Bear.[5]
