The BBC will shortly be recording a radio play based upon Delia Derbyshire's life. Blue Veils and Golden Sands, written by Martin Wade and produced by Cherry Cookson, will dramatise episodes from Delia's life, featuring characters such as Peter Kember (playing himself), Anthony Newley and, of course, Ron Grainer. Other roles include Delia's school careers officer and her senior tutor at Cambridge University. The soundtrack is by Elizabeth Parker (herself formerly of the Radiophonic Workshop) and will include Blue Veils and Golden Sands, The Delian Mode and Moogies Bloogies, as well as additional music by Experimental Audio Research, Aphex Twin and Orbital.
The play will be recorded at Delaware Road, using the same rooms and corridors in which Delia worked. This promises to be a very authentic and touching tribute to one of electronic music's unsung pioneers.

How come you of all people get all excited about electroacoustic music? Is it because of Dr Who?

I have a record by BBC radiophonic workshop called "Out of this World" which Delia contributed to...
It's all weird early synths and chimes etc. lots of very short ambient pieces and sound effects.

more information...
"many sounds have never been heard - by humans: some sound waves you don't hear - but they reach you. 'storm stereo' techniques combine singers, instrumentalists and complex electronic sound. the emotional intensity is at a maximum."
make of that what you will

Delia Derbyshire is the QUEEN of techno...without doubt...
an unsung heroine....
Gave it up after things got "too easy"....
She was the original APHEX TWIN...
(that's why we love her, Meho...did you read the recent WIRE article about her?...)...

My dad has that album (in amongst his Wings and Paul McCartney) and I've been meaning to give it a spin for years. I'll have to dig it out again.
