One of the all-time classic electro tracks - which, since its original release in 1981 has influenced a whole generation of producers and groups - is here reinterpreted by some of the foremost contemporary exponents of the electronica genre.
Bio / Background
This CD was conceived by techno mavens Salz as an Anglo-German production exploring different facets of Thomas Dolby's 1981 recording of "One Of Our Submarines".
The original was the B-side of his international hit single "She Blinded Me With Science", and as such it was mainly overlooked by the commercial mainstream.
However, to club goers, fans and electronic music afficianados, it remains one of the stand-out songs of its era.
The sonic layering of the track suggests dark underwater worlds of wartime hell.
Not surprising, seeing as Dolby's uncle (featured in a black and white photo on the CD cover) drowned in a British submarine on manoeuvres late in the Second World War.
