November 30 - Turntable Cafe
Thursday 30 November 2006, 7:30 pm
Purcell Room
Turntable Cafe - Radiophonic Workshop
Series: Turntable Cafe
Turntable Cafe pays tribute to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, whose most familiar contribution to the world was the Dr Who theme, arguably the earliest and most significant piece of British electronica. But with contributors like Delia Derbyshire and Glynis Jones, it was also hugely influential on generations of musicians, from the Pet Shop Boys to Aphex Twin and Four Tet.
Sonic Boom - formerly of Spacemen 3 and the last person to work with Delia Derbyshire before she died in 2001 - performs live; there is a selection of archive footage on the workshop, and Julian House, formerly Stereolab, from the graphic design company Intro provides images and spins records. Turntable Cafe takes place in the Purcell Room and The Front Room at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.
£10.00 tickets
