ON A WARM DAY IN SEPTEMBER 2022, ALONGSIDE 40 OR SO PRESS COLLEAGUES, I WAS TREATED TO AN ADVANCE DEMONSTRATION OF THE DOLBY ATMOS MIX OF THE BEATLES’ REVOLVER, AT REPUBLIC STUDIOS ON BROADWAY IN NEW YORK CITY’S MIDTOWN. PRODUCER/MIXER GILES MARTIN—SON OF ORIGINAL BEATLES PRODUCER SIR GEORGE MARTIN— WAS OUR HOST. GILES MARTIN’S DEMEANOR WAS SELF-DEPRECATING, AND HE SEEMED TO KNOW ALL THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT THE BEATLES AND THEIR PRODUCTIONS. AS MARTIN PLAYED SONGS FROM REVOLVER IN SURROUND SOUND, THE ASSEMBLED GROUP SEEMED AMAZED BY WHAT THEY HEARD.
Played through a JBL-based 7.1.4 system in a conference room,1 “Tomorrow Never Knows,” Revolver ’s final track (which, however, was the first to be recorded), was transformed. Based on texts from The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead and employing radical elements including musique concrète, avant-garde composition, and tape loops, the effect of this new, spacious soundfield—on an album known for its claustrophobic production—was shocking. At the front of the mix, Lennon’s vocal was large; it came across with more texture and nuance than I’d ever heard. Also, up front, Paul’s woozy electric bass and Ringo’s cracking drums had weight and viscosity; Ringo’s familiar 16th note, mounted-tom strike (“da-doom”) now revealed a pitch dip, indicating that he’d tuned the drum’s bottom head lower and looser than its top head.

Nina Simone: Wild Is the Wind
By all accounts, Eunice Kathleen Waymon, aka Nina Simone, who passed in 2003, was a troubled person and a brilliant artist. Why she was not more acclaimed during her lifetime is a question several recent film projects have tried to answer. Did her fierce stand on civil rights lose her fans?
