This month's Electronic Sound cover star is Hannah Peel, whose latest album is a superb reimagining of 'Electronsonic', a 1972 library music collection on KPM Records featuring Radiophonic Workshop legends Delia Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson.
To accompany this issue, we have an exclusive seven-inch of a brand new Hannah Peel composition, 'Unheard Delia', which incorporates extracts from a previously unknown interview with Delia Derbyshire conducted by writer Jo Hutton in early 2000, around 18 months before Delia died. The 10-minute piece is split into two parts for our seven-inch, which is pressed on lime green vinyl.
“Delia had a wonderful laugh and you can hear her giggling throughout Jo’s interview, as she darts back and forth in time with her stories," says Hannah. "There was a beautiful narrative thread I found in there that really honours her love of music in its simplest form – playing with and being absorbed by sound."
As with all our seven-inch releases, this record is strictly limited and available exclusively to readers of Electronic Sound, so make sure you grab your copy while you can.
