The Dreams - Electronic Soundscapes by Delia Derbyshire and the BBC

via Weekend Gallimaufry via Scott Stites
"For a long time I thought Barry Bermange (a talented writer on his own) was the one behind the whole concept. I didn't realize until much later that The BBC Radiophonic Workshop was actually the brainchild of Delia Derbyshire, and she was the one responsible for the incredible electronic sound that accompanied the voices."

Love Confession on Yamaha Electone EL90

YouTube via Tonneman

"Me playing "Love Confession" on the Yamaha Electone EL90. In 1986 (if I remember correctly) I reached second place in the finals of the national Yamaha Electone contests. That time, I performed this song on the Yamaha FX-20.

"Love Confession" has been composed by Ruud Jansen, who was my organteacher and coach back then. As far as I know, Ruud originally played this composition years begore I did (seventies?) and became nr 1 of the European Yamaha contest.

To play this piece on the EL90, I made the arrangements (registrations), rithm patterns and rithm sequences myself. I kept in mind the original arrangements and character of the song as I performed it back then on the FX-20.

Enjoy!"
