Commercial Breakup was a German band featuring vocalist Elke Brauweiler and Vredeber Albrecht. Vredus and Elke B. recorded their first track 'Little Bear' for the compilation 'Spielkreis 01' in 1996.
The bandname is taken from the Thomas Dolby song of the same name - Commercial Breakup.
Their cover of New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle“ sold several ten-thousands and remained for 8 weeks in the German single-charts.
The former duo Commercial Breakup became the live-band Commercial Breakup with musicians Deep Space Hein (Chips, Mina) and DJ Jack Tennis (Chips).
Later Elke spent time on working with her main project Paula and left Commercial Breakup.
Vredus continued working on new backing tracks. He worked as DJ and remixer and toured with bands Paincake and Blumfeld. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
