For all those lovers of electronic music

Wonderful item on BBC iPlayer. Heaven 17 performing the whole of Penthouse and Pavements. If you want to know where the real talent went from Human League when they broke up just listen to this.

And tomorrow is the 30th anniversary of Ian Curtis's suicide.

I shall be wearing a black armband all day in tribute.

Edit:  In fact, I'm off to watch Control again in a bit.

f**king hell is it 30 years since Joy Division?

Certainly is, mate.  To mark Curtis's passing, Peter Hook and a few pals will be playing the entire tracklist from the Unknown Pleasures LP live and in order for the very first time at The Factory in Manchester.

Tickets are sold out, I believe.  Hopefully he might squeeze a few of them in when I see him there on 2nd June.

A little trip for you RTR?
