Thomas Dolby

Thomas Dolby is a musician and the founder of Beatnik (previously Headspace) Inc., which created technologies such as MiniBAE and MobileBAE. He founded the company in 1993 and served as the CEO, but stepped down in 2002 but remained on the board. Beatnik developed the RMF format, used to play music on websites after downloading a plug-in. He wrote some tracks for the Headspace Music Library, consisting of RMF music.

After the dot-com bubble, Beatnik's main client was Nokia. He claims to have written some ringtones for Nokia, but it is uncertain if they were used, as the majority of early Nokia polyphonic ringtones were either written by Mikko Tillander or arranged from their monophonic originals by Ian Livingstone. He also claims that "[his] team" programmed the Nokia tune, meaning that Livingstone either worked face-to-face with Beatnik or he is just misremembering.

Outside of his Beatnik work, he is famous for his songs, including hits such as "She Blinded Me with Science" and "Hyperactive!", both of which later received RMF versions.
