Career

Hans-Eberhard Blume started primary school in 1937 and secondary school in 1941 until he graduated from high school in 1949. He then did a commercial apprenticeship at VEB sugar factory in Halberstadt. From 1951 he studied business administration at the Free University of Berlin and in 1955 received a degree in business administration.

His first position was at Telefunken and took him to Berlin, Hanover, Wedel, Frankfurt and finally to the subsidiary Teldec in Hamburg . There he came into the music industry and became marketing director for light music . After 8 years at Teldec, he went to Hansa Musik Produktion in Berlin in 1965 , where he was managing director until 1993. He has since retired.

Time in the music industry

Together with the Meisel brothers, he leads “the Hansa” to one of the most successful music productions in Germany, which also had many hits abroad. There were no long corridors with locked doors, as with the music companies. Its doors were always open and everyone was always welcome for a conversation. This was also a reason for Frank Farian to sign a contract with the small but independent Hansa.

Special connections developed with the group The Twins and the music producers Frank Farian , George Glueck and Dieter Bohlen .
