#onthisday Delia Derbyshire was born on this date back in 1937. Her claim to fame is she was the woman who arranged an electronic realisation of Ron Grainer’s theme of the Doctor Who series in 1963. The rest, as they say, is history. Probably one of the most well know television themes to be created and produced entirely with electronics. Grainer attempted to credit her as co-composer but was prevented by the BBC bureaucracy because they preferred that members of the workshop remain anonymous. She was an English musician and composer of electronic music who worked with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop during the 1960s and has been referred to as "the unsung heroine of British electronic music." #bookstodon #WritersOfMastodon #onthisday #HowtoSucceed… #Author #Novel
