Founded in 1958 by Desmond Briscoe and Daphne Oram, the Radiophonic Orchestra was home to a maverick group of experimental composers, sound engineers and musical innovators.
Now, original members Peter Howell, Roger Limb, Dr Dick Mills, Paddy Kingsland and Mark Ayres are back working together, described by the music press as the ‘Electronic Buena Vista Social Club’ and ‘the British Kraftwerk’.
