Singer Keith, 49, took his own life at his home in Essex in March.

He rose to fame in the 1990s in the Brit Award-winning electronic band, who were known for hits including Firestarter and Breathe.

The sale at Cheffins in Cambridge next month will help settle his estate’s debts.

It reflects the frontman's personal taste in art and fashion, as well as his interests in music and beyond.
