Can anyone tell me.......?

The name of the lady who composed the music at the beginning of Eye No?

IIRC it was a stock sample from BBC audio library but I can't for the life of me find any info about it.

cheers.

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

Delia Derbyshire is the name you want. smile

Although:

Track 61, "Passing clouds", by Roger Limb, was used on "Eye No", the opening song on Lovesexy, the album by Prince, released in 1988. It was also released as "Clouds", but wrongly credited to Delia Derbyshire, on a 2-CD bootleg called "Wow!", released by "Eye" Records in 2008.

A better name for that bootleg would have been "hmmm Mmmm," not Wow.
