Steven Price and Neil Brand: Soundtracking the Sea and Silent Laughter

Available for 26 days

Cerys welcomes Steven Price for an in‑depth look at composing the vivid score for Ocean with David Attenborough - from shaping the underwater palette to finding the music that carries the documentary’s awe and momentum. She’s also joined by Neil Brand, whose Laurel & Hardy centenary tour celebrates a century of the duo’s genius; he shares how music defines their comic timing, why those themes endure, and what it’s like bringing their world to life for audiences today. As a bonus, we hear brief voice notes from Pat Chin, co‑founder of VP Records, offering a glimpse into the story of Randy’s Studio 17, its origins and the moments that shaped its legacy - arriving alongside the new Randy’s 50th Anniversary: Reggae Anthology – Chapter One, with vinyl out 30 January 2026. Cerys brings it all together with hand‑picked favourites from her classic shelves and standout new discoveries. Produced by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 6 Music.
