Partenaire Particulier (French pronunciation: [paʁtənɛʁ paʁtikylje]) is a French pop, electronic, and new wave band from Bordeaux whose popularity peaked in the mid-1980s. It was formed by Eric Fettweis, Pierre Béraud-Sudreau, and Dominique Delaby. Three of their singles were ranked on the SNEP chart (top 50), including their signature song, "Partenaire Particulier".^[1] They stopped releasing albums in 1989, although they produced records in the early 1990s using different pseudonyms. The group made a comeback in 2006 with Fettweis and Béraud-Sudreau and began writing a new album, though creative differences led to Béraud-Sudreau's departure, leaving Fettweis as the sole permanent member of the band. He released Geek in 2011, and a decade later, followed it with Qu'allons-nous devenir ? as well as Nuits particulières, a collaborative album with former Les Avions vocalist and guitarist Jean-Pierre Morgand.
