wow, alot of people here listen to some serious classics...i listen to mostly house, both old school from the 90s and the newer stuff

Welcome to the Music Circle. This is one of the best "What are you listening to" threads on the Internet and is one of the reasons I was attracted to AudioCircle in the first place. This is a very organic thread and goes through many cycles. There are days when nothing but classics are posted, others when all you see is modern electronic music. Every member that posts here has a favorite artist/musical style, but we tend to bounce off each other from time to time and stick with a common style. It's a fun place to hang out when you have the time. You'll certainly be exposed to a lot of artists you've never heard of before.

Thomas Dolby - The Flat Earth (1984)

Samples

This video was way ahead of its time!

I hated this album the first time I heard it. I wanted it to sound more like "The Golden Age of Wireless - Part II". It wasn't. Not even close. I probably went 10 years without listening to it again. It's only because a friend of mine wanted to hear it on my Martin-Logan's that I played it again. I have to say I was stunned the second time around. Maybe it just took me that long to "get it", but I remember having more than one "Holy Crap!" moment while listening to it that night. I now consider it one of the best albums of the 80's.

"Aliens Ate My Buick" is still my favorite Thomas Dolby album, but this is a very close second. His first three albums are pretty incredible.
