EMS ↘↖

‘The New Sound of Music’ is a 1979 BBC TV programme that looks at the history of recorded music from Barrel Organs right up to computer controlled synthesisers courtesy of EMS. There is lots of amazing material here, most of which is filmed at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, including demonstrations of music concrete using tape editing techniques, Malcom Clarke demonstrating the EMS Synthi 100, Dick Mills creating Dr Who sound fx using the EMS VCS3, and David Vorhaus demonstrating his MANIAC and Kaleidophon inventions.

There are 4 parts so make sure you check them all out.
