April 4, 2012 - PRLog -- Chicago, IL. – April 4, 2012 – You might have been “blinded by science,” but after speaking to Steve Benz, Dolby is still breaking new ground in 2012.  (You can follow Steve on Twitter; @steve_benz).

"Dolby was way ahead of the curve musically, in the 80’s and that hasn’t change.  His music influenced two generations, and is heard on the tracks from top bands including Neon Trees and 30 Seconds to Mars,” said radio host Steve Benz.  "His latest CD, A Map of a Floating City, sounds like its 1985 again.  And that’s alright with me.  His fans and new listeners are going to enjoy it."

Dolby best know for his 1982 Worldwide hit “She Blinded Me with Science,” and 1984 hit single “Hyperactive,” hit the music scene after working as a successful studio musician.  Thomas was always messing around with keyboards and tapes, so his friends nicknamed him Dolby.  And the rest is history.

“I haven’t released an album in over 20 years and I just had the feeling it was time.  This tour is more than just me and my new band.  It includes an Interactive Online Game that is tied to Social Media.  Plus we are bringing a traveling time capsule.  In this digital age, you don’t need a physical capsule, but I thought it’d be kind of neat and anachronistic to build one anyways looking like Jules Verne and H.G. Wells and Nikola Tesla designed it and allow the public to sit in it and create some cool content for themselves and for me in which they give these thirty second messages to the future”, said Dolby.
