This 8 part music documentary was just put up on HULU and I thought I would mention it because things tend to disappear from HULU quickly. I have only watched a small part of the first episode and I can already tell it is must see viewing for anyone interested in music. He is a quick review I found online:
"It's like a mashed-up history of modern music production. Each episode Is loosely based around the impact of various technology (microphone, 4-track, electric guitar, sampling) and includes an array of musicians and producers talking, plus heaps of music clips. It's not genre-based so I imagine it would appeal to most music lovers. It's definitely given me an appreciation for the amazing work of producers. Rick Rubin stands out. One ep covered the path from gospel-soul-funk-disco-edm, tonight was about the birth of rap. Another ep highlighted the album rivalry of beach boys vs Beatles. Always fascinating."
From what I have seen it looks like the documentary of the year for us music lovers. The documentary parts are in mono and the music is in surround when it works. In other words mono recordings are mono but multitrack recordings are mixed to surround. Beautiful sounding and great quality.
