BiografiePoble Nou, Barcelona. A hot day in June, 2001. Mister Furia makes his way to the Stationers in Carrer Pamplona. An Impala pulls up and Professor Manso appears from under the helmet, what a surprise! They hadn´t seen each other for 3 years and spent 15 minutes catching up.

The next day, they bump into each other on the corner of Carrer Llull & Carrer Pamplona. They exchange a quick hello but Manso is in a hurry and has to rush off. On the third day, Mister Furia bumps into Professor Manso again, this time in front of his house with a group of musicians. It turns out that they live 100 metres from each other! Manso has a gig that evening, but before they part they have a quick chat about their respective musical projects. Hmmmmmm... they both think.

On the fourth day Mister Furia doesn´t bump into Professor Manso but he gets a phone call asking if he is interested in producing a score for a TV series, Once Upon a Time in Europe. He calls Professor Manso and asks if he´d like to produce the score with him in the studio he has set up in his house. And so it was that Professor Manso´s Mac and Mister Furia?s Analog Synths were brought together for the first time, and that is how The Pinker Tones were founded.

The score is a success. During filming, The Pinker Tones meet Christopher Lee, who had been chosen to present the series. The meeting takes place in the Restaurante Amaya in La Rambla, Barcelona, and while they enjoy "chipirones" and "gambas a la plancha", Christopher Lee, to everyone´s amazement, expresses how much he likes the score and that his real artistic vocation is the "bel canto". The Pinker Tones compliment his magnificent baritone voice, and his excellent taste in music.

From the beginning, The Pinker Tones realise their new project has fantastic potential, and that there is very positive energy during their recording sessions. They begin to compose and produce like crazy in what has now become their new home: Pinkerland. In this tiny rooftop studio in the centre of Barcelona, they begin to put together their first album which is finally released in 2003, after 2 Maxi Singles, Mais Pourquoi? and One of Them. The album is called PINK CONNECTION and is immediately chosen for the FNAC New Talent Award. Very soon, new possibilities appear on the horizon for The Pinker Tones, including exciting offers from foreign countries. However the record label doesn´t share the band´s international ambitions and they decide to join a UK label, Outstanding Records. As a result the album stops being available in Spain, but is released in more than 100 countries worldwide under a new name: THE BCN CONNECTION. Thanks to the fantastic videos for the singles Mais Pourquoi? and Viva la Juventud, The Pinker Tones start to appear regularly on MTV and other channels around the world. The video for Mais Pourquoi? spend 19 weeks in the top 20 in MTV Spain´s Dance Floor Chart.

While all this is going on, The Pinker Tones don´t rest for a minute: they produse various albums and singles for Spainish and international bands (Bondage, ExMundus, Veldt, David Devant & His Spirit Wife), thy compose a couple of film soundtracks (Sincopat & Survival Train) and they dedicate some of their time to experimenting with remixes (Skizoo, Carrots, Alessandroni, Ovni, Capri, Klaus Esser, etc). But their main project is the second album. They work on it for more than 2 years and creat an album that is already surpassing all expectations. In Spain and the UK THE MILLION COLOUR REVOLUTION is released on 7th November 2005 on Pinkerland Records, a label founded by the band itself and Outstanding Records. Between now and February 2006, the album will be released in more than 40 countries, including Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Luxemburg, Japan, Korea, USA, Canada, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Colombia and Venezuela.

Professor Manso and Mister Furia have also developed a live format, with the invaluable help of DJ Niño: The Pinker Tones DJ Crew, in which they combine the intensity of a rock band and the excitement of a DJ set. The bootlegs they create live are hugely popular. The DJ Crew has taken them from Poble Nou to far away places such as London, Caracas and Johannesburg.
