White Noise

White Noise are an English experimental electronic music band formed in London in 1968, after American-born David Vorhaus, a classical bass player with a background in physics and electronic engineering, attended a lecture by Delia Derbyshire, a sound scientist at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson, then both former members of electronic music project Unit Delta Plus, joined Vorhaus to form the band.
From the second album onwards (1975), White Noise became the solo project of David Vorhaus. 
In the mid-1990s Vorhaus began performing sporadically live under the White Noise moniker, playing songs from all eras, assisted by Mark Jenkins until 2011.
Since 2011, White Noise members are David Vorhaus and Mike Painter who continue to record and perform.

Peel played some tracks from the group's debut album, An Electric Storm, in 1969 on his radio programmes. Both Delia and Brian did the special effects on John Peel's voice, at the beginning of the John Peel Presents Top Gear album, released in the same year and they also collaborated with Welfare State for the track, 'Silence Is Requested In The Ultimate Abyss', which was also released on the album.
