David Lynch – Crazy Clown Time

Inspiring. Really dig the texture and layering to this stuff. The lyrics are oddly childlike. The process looks remarkably un-digital using tapes and warm tube amps. I must see the movie DUNE again. Click here for more.

Delia Derbyshire

I believe I am smitten with Delia Derbyshire. She was part of the innovative BBC Radiophonic Workshop back in the early 60s and co-created many soundtracks including the Dr. Who theme. This mainstream theme brought electronic music into people’s living rooms for the first time and still holds up after almost 50 years.

Delia was a bit of an enigma. The people who worked with her thought she was rather unpredictable and eccentric. She created most of the analog sounds via tape loops and sequenced sounds by physically cutting together tape. There was no roadmap for what she was doing. She eventually rejected the digital synthesizer because she was too much of a sound purist.

Here she explains how to make minimal techno music in 1962. I want to trapped in a room with Delia.

Also here is part 4 of a documentary called The Alchemists of Sound which has a section about Delia. I think the strange man with the beard lurking around in the back of the interviews represents the ever watchful eye of the BBC. He could just be someone hanging around though.
