Following the success of Heaven 17’s Penthouse and Pavement 30th AnniversaryTour, the British Electric Foundation is proud to present ‘Music of Quality and Distinction Live’, a two day festival at London’s prestigious Roundhouse venue celebrating 30 years of seminal electronic music and unique collaborations.
The two day festival will feature a major concert each night.
Friday 14th October will include the world premiere of Heaven 17’s 1983 album The Luxury Gap performed for the first time. The album originally went to #4 in the UK Album chart and scored the band four hit singles - Let Me Go, Temptation, Come Live With Me, and Crushed by the Wheels of Industry.
The concert will be performed live in 3D sound - the latest state-of-the-art immersive audio experience, using 3D soundscape composition techniques pioneered by Martyn Ware and Vince Clarkes’ Illustrious Company.
The following night of the two day festival will be entirely devoted to B.E.F.’s groundbreaking 30-year career of electronic pop, featuring many of the artists originally involved in the B.E.F. Music of Quality and Distinction albums.
Guest vocalists confirmed for the Music of Quality and Distinction Live concertinclude Elly Jackson (LaRoux), Green Gartside (Scritti Politti), Shingai Shoniwa(Noisettes), Boy George (Culture Club), Midge Ure (Ultravox), Andy Bell (Erasure), Glenn Gregory (Heaven 17), Sandie Shaw, Polly Scattergood and Kim Wilde.
