"Available in two volumes, these releases deal with the music, effects and atmospheres from the heyday of
Dr Who
. Volume 1 focuses on the years 1963-1969 (during which time the Doctor was played by William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton) charting the music from the very first episode, taking us through to 1969 when the Doctor was banished to Earth by the Time Lords. The BBC Radiophonic Workshop was a legendary facility which, for over forty years, created pioneering techniques for sound that were used on a myriad of programmes (
Dr Who
was their biggest client) and for the first time, demonstrated the importance and value of intelligent, creative use of sound. The Workshop's techniques inspired all manner of musicians at the time and continue to do so today. Featuring familiar sounds and music from
Dr. Who
, the CDs are both an insight into the BBC Radiophonic Workshop's pioneering techniques and influence on electronic music and a glorious reminder of the
Dr. Who
of old, all the more timely since Christopher Eccleston is currently travelling through time and space on BBC right now."
