Synths of the Radiophonic Workshop

via Andy:
"Thought you might like these pictures of some of the old Radiophonic Workshop synths. I'm working on a show for the BBC Electric proms with Coldcut - they have created a live remix of classic Radiophonic workshop material and we'll be using the old gear along with their stuff.

There's a VCS3, Synthi A, Vocoder, ARP Odessey and the legendary 'Crystal Palace'.We are doing the show next week and it can be heard on Annie Nightingales Radio 1 show and the 6Mix on BBC 6Music, and I think it's being filmed for online as well."
