Aleks Syntek

Mexican Aleks Syntek was born in September 29 of 1969. This talented musician has been involved in many different projects from advertisements to TV shows and movies. By the late '80s, Syntek, along with two friends, decided to form an alternative band. Their first record, called Hey Tú, was released by EMI in 1990, followed by Más Fuerte De Lo Que Pensaba in 1993. The latter included a contribution from former The Doors Ray Manzarek who played in a song called "Nuestras Costumbres." Later, Aleks Syntek y la Gente Normal started touring Latin America while their songs Mis Impulsos Sobre Tí, "El Camino," and "Más Fuerte De Lo Que Pensaba" were climbing on the most important charts in Chile, Colombia, Puerto Rico, and Argentina. In 1995, Bienvenido a la Vida was released, followed by 1997's Lugar Secreto, produced by Rodolfo Cruz and Michael Rojkind. In addition, Aleks Syntek y la Gente Normal participated in the Latin tribute to the British band Queen. In 1999, Syntek produced the soundtrack for the Mexican film 'Sexo, Pudor y Lágrimas'.
