And certainly Derbyshire was one of the major wizards, technologically and artistically. Part of what was innovative was that there was the kind of collective activity there, though, so I don't think this diminishes either her importance or the essential nature of cooperation there. @Ryan: Yes, but my sense is the general atmosphere at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop was collaborative.

Add to that a lot of what people might think are Derbyshire creations were always part of the score created by Grainer. Derbyshire herself said that Howell's version was closer to the original Grainer score than hers.

The second is an introduction to Delia Derbyshire, who is considered to be the "woman behind the men" behind the notability of the song. She pioneered techniques of synthesizing sounds, sampling and looping in the sixties. One WFMU blogger waxes on about Delia, who "was an inspiring collaborator" working behind the scenes of the BBC’s Radiophonic Workshop. BBC Four produced a documentary about the workshop called Alchemists of Sound which aired in 2005, ten years after the workshop closed due to budget cuts.
