Pels Syndicate

Frank Pels AKA "The Pels Syndicate" started music very early. He started learning to play the flute and piano at 5 and 7 years old respectively, which eventually resulted in conservatory degrees in Schoolmusic, applied music electronics and jazz piano. Frank's interest in electronic music and instruments was born at age 16 when he purchased his first synthesiser, a 1972 model d mini-moog, which he still uses today.
Frank toured and recorded in pop bands like MO, EZ Money and Womack & Womack for several years. He also programmed, played keyboards and carried out production for numerous artists before building his own studio and releasing his first CD "The Pels Syndicate" in 1991. This instrumental music dance orientated CD led to the foundation of The Pels Syndicate Music & Sounddesign. This company has composed music for hundreds of commercials worldwide, tv tunes, tracks for children's CD's, numerous documentaries and films, fashion shows, laser shows and many other events covering all kinds of musical styles.
Cinematic Blue is his first electronic music album for AD Music. A collection of 14 contemporary instrumental music ideas, inspired by years of listening to all kinds of music. Frank cites Thomas Dolby and Art of Noise amongst his influences, as well as electronic pop bands like Pet Shop Boys and more recently Telepopmusik but his style is original cleverly mixing electronic music and contemporary chill out.

2012
This is an awesome instrumental music release from the Dutch soundtrack composer Frank Pels that crosses melodic electronica and rhythmic chill out styles with a variety of wonderful musical soundscapes. Technically brilliant and musically engrossing on just about every level, 'Chemical Inconveniences' is a foot tapping, rhythmic journey traversing a range of terrific thematic ideas that demands repeated plays! Frank crafts superb and memorable musical themes around contemporary, hypnotic rhythms and sequences underpinned by a broad palette of sound with a complexity that is staggering. There are few musicians around with the level of expertise capable of making music such a heavenly sound experience and along with tracks like 'The Day After' and 'Diagnosis One' this album contains some of the best music you're likely to hear! 'Chemical Inconveniences' should be mandatory.

2010
A superb collection of contemporary chilled, rhythmic electronica from Frank Pels, aka 'The Pels Syndicate' that will get your foot tapping as you're carried along on a series of superbly constructed and well recorded soundscapes. Frank has a very direct approach to his music, presenting a creative style that is melodic, original and to the point. It's music without fuss, connecting immediately with a hypnotic simplicity that is in fact, anything but simple, because the music is complex, expertly crafted and hugely satisfying, with each track a superb vignette. Frank's TV soundtrack roots are clearly evident throughout and this really is 'music for your minds own soundtrack' as the 14 musical gems cleverly remain a 'whole' concept album. From the delightful opening chords of "Searchlight" through the ethereal chill of tracks like "Eclectic Electric" & "Invisible Cinema", the playful "Yellow in 64" or the sensual moods of tracks like the awesome "Smooth Night Life", "Cinematic Blue" is an impressive electronic music debut. It's full of 'feel good' music that will leave you smiling and reaching for the replay button, and from where you will discover new nuances and meaning with each listen. Highly recommended.
