Over the last decade, he has performed integral roles as a touring synthesizer technician and playback programmer, traveling worldwide with chart-topping artists like Rihanna, Tycho and M83.

The album was written during the COVID-19 shutdown, a time when he was forced to slow down and focus on original music. With touring opportunities halted and a room full of analog synths, Dobson produced ‘The Mechanics of Time Travel’, a hazy analog synth-driven soundscape that evokes nostalgia and a sense of wonder. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record is an ambient and cinematic journey through the vastness of a universe in constant motion.
