Born in 1962, Frank’s musical career started at age18 with the founding of the successful Belgian synth pop band « 1000 Ohm ».
He states: “I consider these 1000 Ohm years, from 1980 to 1987,as my formative years”
They where more important than any other schooling I had.
When I listen back to material of that period, it’s obvious that it was all pretty awful stuff compared to what I’m doing now. But that’s when I learned to play and love synths. Curiously, the stuff is still in demand . I think this is mainly due to the fact that 1000 Ohm ‘s music is still regarded as a good showcase of the sound and attitude of the 80’s.

After 1000 Ohm’s split-up, Frank spent a couple of years engineering and producing for other bands before buying ACE Studio near Antwerp.
This is where Frank finally set up his business as a professional composer, producer and engineer.
ACE has always been run as a commercial studio, but since 1997 the studio is also regularly booked for the recording of Frank’s private music.

Since the first release of “COLOURS” in 1997, Frank immediately reached people with his ability to translate his emotions into instrumental, mostly synth based but very organic, music.
His following release, “GEOGRAPHIC” (which won the German Schwingungen awards for three categories;best album;best song and best artist in 2000) really defined his style. His subsequent releases, “DOCKING” and “HUMAN” both share this kind of magic, while more and more people come to know his music.
