Apple Shares Trailer for Docuseries 'Watch the Sound with Mark Ronson'

Apple today released the trailer for upcoming docuseries "Watch the Sound with Mark Ronson," which is set to premiere on Friday, July 30th on Apple TV+.


The six-part docuseries will examine "sound creation and the revolutionary technology that has shaped music as we know it," and as the name suggests, it is hosted by DJ and Grammy Award-winning artist and producer Mark Ronson.

Each episode will follow Ronson as he uncovers untold stories of music creation and explores the lengths that producers and creators will go to in order to find the perfect sound.

Ronson explores music's intersection with artistry and technology in candid conversations with music legends and icons including Paul McCartney, Questlove, King Princess, Dave Grohl, Adrock and Mike D from the Beastie Boys, Charli XCX and more, where he discovers the ways in which these unique tools have influenced their work.

The end of each episode will feature Ronson creating a unique piece of original music using different techniques like reverb, synth, autotune, drum machines, sampling, and distortion.

Think I will skip this. A lot of the people shown I am not familiar with. I miss the old days when the band actually went to the recording studio and made music. Most of it today is all digital.

I am surprised Steve Winwood wasn't part of the series.
Yup, agree, this is definitely not for you.

Looks cool, hopefully Apple isn't imagining it's some kind of leader in sound.

If this is like any of the other music docu-series Apple has put out, I'm definitely watching. Beastie Boys story and 1971 were outstanding. I would watch the hell out of another series like 1971 - maybe do 1984 and 1991 next.

You're not familiar with McCartney, Grohl, The Beastie Boys and Questlove? All of whom "actually go to the recording studio to make music" - maybe you're just not that into music?
