Radiophonic Workshop release new material through Society of Sound platform
Electronic sound pioneers, Radiophonic Workshop, have announced the release of new material through the Bowers and Wilkins platform - Society of Sound.
The musical collective, who have been exploring electronic sound manipulation and innovative techniques since 1958, have made the album available to download in full 24-bit studio quality. A whole host of instruments and tools were used in the recording; including kids' toys, lampshades and a local weir...
Radiophonic's Dr. Dick Mills said:
"We’ve been experimenting in the studio, mixing the old techniques with new ones, taking some of the methods we used when the Workshop began in 1956 and mixing them up with the very latest digital technologies. The Workshop took the approach that we didn’t know what wasn’t possible so we never really saw the boundaries in sound that others did. The producers would ask us to create a certain feel and we would imagine it – by whatever means we could. That has stayed the same and we welcome the freedom to be able to experiment in the studio in that way again."
The album is available to Society of Sound members here.
