About this sound

Peter Griffin version of the Axel F theme from Beverly Hills Cop, used for retro comedy entrances, smug reactions and short meme edits online.

This eight second clip is the instantly recognisable Axel F synth melody from Beverly Hills Cop, known in French as Le Flic de Beverly Hills, in the Peter Griffin meme version. Bright electronic notes bounce along with a playful, slightly smug energy that signals a character is feeling unstoppable or sneaking into trouble. The tune is short, loop friendly and nostalgic, so a single hit immediately changes the mood of a scene from ordinary to mischievous eighties action comedy without needing any dialogue or explanation at all.

Pro tip

Drop it the moment your character starts a confident strut or slow motion walk, keep the picture straight faced underneath, and cut on the last synth note before the joke outstays its welcome or another music cue fights the melody.

How people use it

Add to a confident walk-in entrance for instant eighties energy.
Use under a smug Peter Griffin style reaction edit.
Play when a plan surprisingly works against all odds.
Score a goofy chase scene in a short meme video.

More information

Beverly Hills Cop was released in 1984 with Eddie Murphy as detective Axel Foley, and its electronic theme Axel F by Harold Faltermeyer became one of the most recognisable movie melodies of the decade. In France the film is titled Le Flic de Beverly Hills, which is how this clip is labelled. Family Guy and its lead character Peter Griffin have long recycled famous film tunes for cutaway gags, helping older themes reach new audiences as short shareable meme sounds.

FAQ

What is the Le Flic de Beverly Hills sound?

It is a short Peter Griffin meme version of Axel F, the electronic theme from Beverly Hills Cop. The French title Le Flic de Beverly Hills refers to the same 1984 film, which is why both names appear in searches for this clip.

Where does the melody originally come from?

The melody is Axel F, composed by Harold Faltermeyer for Beverly Hills Cop in 1984. It was written for Eddie Murphy's character Axel Foley, and its bouncy synth riff became closely associated with the film and its sequels over the following decades.

How do creators use this sound in edits?

Creators drop it under confident entrances, smug reactions and playful chase moments where the character should feel cooler than the situation deserves. Because the riff is only a few seconds long, it works best as a quick punchline rather than full background music.
