  • Thomas is a genius. Excellent songwriter, as well as being a master of the old stuff before you just bought some stuff from Korg and made up songs on the fly....His songs took hours and hours of programming, synching, etc...when that stuff was not exactly user-friendly. I wouldn't say ANYONE is the best, but Mr. Dolby certainly had a big impact back when it was harder to do so.....he is an innovator in his art and I give him major credit for his role in music.

  • Mr. Dolby,

    As a young black man in America I grew up with your music and secrectly had a man-crush on you. Radio Silence and One of our submarines got me through puberty...seriously.

    Thank you.

  • The funny thing is Soviet sub K-429 sank in shallow water in the summer of 1983. I remember watching the story on the news when this song was popular. The entire crew survived because submarine escape procedures had improved greatly since WWII.

  • one of my most fav 80's tunes, and albums. TD, anytime you need a guitarist/Egyptian excavation monkey, give me a ring.

  • @rednop44 don't feel like the Lone Ranger!!! Same here! WLBS in Mt. Clemens MI introduced me to Mr. Dolby in the early 80's

  • This one really has that sound of cramped, metallic-smelling areas lit by a blinking, harsh orange light. those deep synths in the background cover the whole tune in deep, deep water, the other ones going past like strange, brightly-colored fish, going down.. then slowly surfacing to show all that ocean, endless, indifferent, roiling

  • ... There was an exhilarating freedom and sense of adventure that came upon me while listening to Thomas in the eighties. The sound of electronic music, clever lyrics... that drove deep into our hearts. Fond memories... sad memories, happy memories!
