Following the success of Heaven 17's ‘Penthouse and Pavement 30th Anniversary Tour' in 2010, Martyn Ware's production project, ‘British Electric Foundation' (B.E.F.) is proud to present ‘Music of Quality and Distinction Live', a 2-day festival on October 14 and 15, celebrating 30 years of seminal electronic music and unique collaborations.
