The Alchemists of Sound (Part 6)

That Newsround bit was also sampled by Orbital in Spare Parts Express

Great documentary, but the gimmick of the guy lurking in the background of every shot gets old fast. It goes from creepy to funny to irritating within the space of the first 5 minutes.

Delia Derbyshire may be an unsung hero(ine) to the general public, but to fans of experimental music she'll always be a giant.

brilliant im totally thankful for the documentary....... obsessed with all things radiophonic and maidavale!
god bless us brits we have done wonders for the spectrum of electronic composition... pats on the back all round!
thanks Maldoror42 much appreciated!

great documentary, thank you.

The only thing that would make this documentary more satisfying is to have the man in the background dragged off by men in masks at the end.

awesome!

well pitty that you didn't post the very end of the film. there was three views on radiophonic works on one screen:

one on top digital waveform of sound, second I don't remember and the third one was view of cutted original tape with visible points of mix cuts, so you could see exacttly how whole track was mixed [short loops, longer prerecorded parts..] it was FUN! please post if you can :D thanks

Its still there

the guy from fight club

Great film.
Thanks for posting!
