'Watch the Sound With Mark Ronson' - have you seen THIS?

It's a documentary series (6 episodes) that was made in 2021.  I just finished watching it on AppleTV+ (I got it thru Prime).   

Wasn't sure I'd be interested - or if anything would apply to me as a Fiddler, but as I watched it became clear to me... it's about MUSIC & well thought out!  Pretty sure anyone who plays & records their music, sings (or even just listens), would find each mini-documentary-episode enlightening.  Even folks who stay on top of new music tech/innovations might be surprised.     

I can't believe a single violinist exists that wouldn't be blown away by the 3rd episode, alone - REVERB!  

 

Is there anything more exciting (to a music lover) than hearing a new sound?  

🤔... the idea of music listeners falling in love with the expressive possibilities of artificially enhanced voice & instrument tone/texture - to the point of trying to mimic the effects 'naturally' (thinking of them as a 'natural' part of music/sound)... kinda hits home!  

 

🤔... so, who is this Mark Ronson?"  ...well, 1st off, he's the guy responsible for the super addictive groove song 'Uptown Funk' (LOVE watching the 'Old Movie Star' dance montage set to it) with Bruno Mars!  Song writer, record producer (including his own albums) & DJ - NINE Grammy Awards!  Why should I be surprised - his stepfather is Foreigner's Mick Jones.
