About Thomas Dolby

Thomas Dolby, born Thomas Morgan Robertson on October 14, 1958, is a pioneering figure in the early 1980s synth-pop and new wave scenes, celebrated for his innovative fusion of synthesizers, electro-funk, and catchy pop melodies. Initially fascinated by electronics and computers, Dolby built his own synthesizers as a teenager and mastered guitar, piano, and programming. His school nickname, inspired by Dolby noise-reduction technology, became his professional moniker.

Before launching his solo career in 1981, Dolby established himself as a versatile studio musician, songwriter, and sound engineer. He contributed to post-punk acts like The Fall and The Passions, and penned hits such as "New Toy" for Lene Lovich. He also crossed genres with the rap single "Magic's Wand" for Whodini, one of rap music’s first million-sellers.

Dolby’s breakthrough arrived with his debut album, "The Golden Age of Wireless" (1982), featuring singles like "Europa and the Pirate Twins" and his iconic MTV hit "She Blinded Me with Science," which reached number five on the U.S. charts. His follow-up, "The Flat Earth" (1984), brought the UK hit "Hyperactive." Throughout his career, Dolby collaborated with legends such as David Bowie, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, George Clinton, Mark Knopfler, and Regina Spektor.

Beyond music, Dolby ventured into film scoring and technology, founding the software company Headspace in the 1990s. After a period of lower commercial visibility, he returned with "A Map of the Floating City" (2011), reaffirming his status as an innovative synth-pop artist and multimedia pioneer.
