The Radiophonic Workshop

Marc has a session from the Radiophonic Workshop, aka the BBC sound effects department.

Tonight the Radiophonic Workshop, aka, BBC sound effects department, join us for a live session from Maida Vale in that there London.

The Workshop was set up in the late 1950s to satisfy a growing demand for sounds effects on the radio, they were the creative genius behind the famous Dr Who theme amongst many others. The group use a combination of instruments, sounds effects and electronic beeps and trills to create a truly unique noise. Having played the likes of Glastonbury, the group are not shy of delivering epic performances, sounds promising for this evening then.
