Echoes Podcast|Echoes Interview feature - Mellodrama Episode
The Mellotron was the sound of progressive rock and space music in the 1970s. Before digital synthesizers, it was an instrument that played back the sounds of orchestras, choirs, and more. It generated the grandeur of The Moody Blues, Tangerine Dream, King Crimson and many others. In her new documentary Mellodrama, director Dianna Dilworth has chronicled the birth of the Mellotron, going back to the late 1940s and the Chamberlin keyboard. We talk to her about these instruments and their epic journey.
