    Dolby Atmos is a completely new way to create and experience music that delivers artistic expression at its fullest capacity, forging a deeper connection between artists and their fans. Music in Dolby Atmos goes beyond the ordinary listening experience by immersing the listener in the song, revealing details with unparalleled clarity and depth. It gives artists more space and the freedom to fully realise their vision and unlock new levels of emotion in their music for their listeners. Whether it’s hearing the layers of instruments moving all around them, catching the subtle breath a singer takes between lyrics, or feeling melodies wash over them – nothing will bring the listener inside the song like Dolby Atmos.
