Lost tapes of the Dr Who composer

 
"A hidden hoard of recordings made by the electronic music pioneer behind the Doctor Who theme has been revealed - including a dance track 20 years ahead of its time.

Crychan Forest Association

 
"The Crychan and Halfway Forest is set in beautiful countryside nestling between the Brecon Beacons and the Cambrian Mountains. Here miles of waymarked trails take you through tranquil grassy gorges, along old drover's routes and past cascading waterfalls, taking in breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains of Mid Wales."



Lleolwyd Coedwig Crychan a Halfway mewn cefn gwlad anhygoel o brydferth rhwng Bannau Brycheiniog a'r Mynyddoedd Cambriaidd. Yma mae milltiroedd o lwybrau cyfeirbwyntiedig yn rhedeg trwy ceunentydd tawel, dros hen ffyrdd y porthmyn ac heibio rhaeadrau teg. Mae na olygfeydd arddunol o fynyddoedd canolbarth Cymru."
