The Seventh Wave will bring a slew of top class electronic artists to Birmingham for a string of performances later on this year. Taking place between Friday 29th September - Sunday 1st October, the event looks to showcase some of the finest in ambient vibes and multi layered electro melodies with an exemplary line up in tow.

On Saturday 30th September, No Man's Tim Bowness will hold court with an incredible set dedicated to his immense back catalogue that includes the collaborations Flame with Richard Barbieri (Porcupine Tree/ex-Japan), and Talking With Strangers which was co written by Judy Dyble (ex-Fairport Convention).

Finally, on Sunday 1st October, Mark Ayres and Roger Limb from 'the British Kraftwerk' aka The Radiophonic Workshop will deliver an afternoon of stories and music, sharing how they have constantly been pushing the boundaries of what is possible when it comes to electronic musical creations.
