Biography

Blue System were a pop band who rose to prominence in the late 1980s and rode the crest of the MTV wave which swept through Europe during that period. The band was a vehicle for the talents of Dieter Bohlen, the legendary German producer who had emerged onto the German pop scene as one half of the duo Modern Talking. With the break-up of Modern Talking in 1997 Bohlen assembled a collection of session musicians and began writing which led to the group having a string of hit singles during their ten-year career. At that time the MTV phenomenon was in its heyday and Bohlen embraced the concept, releasing no less than 22 videos which helped tracks such as 'Sorry Little Sarah', 'My Bed Is Too Big', 'Magic Symphony' and many others break out into the burgeoning Europop scene. With the thawing of the West's relationship with Russia which occurred during this time, Blue System were one of a small group of bands who spotted the opportunity to play concerts to audiences in the Eastern Bloc hungry to see and hear Western pop music. As a result the band built up a considerable following in Russia. Bohlen disbanded the group in 1997 in order to concentrate on writing and producing for other artists.
