The Grammy-winning immersive music of Justin Gray’s Immersed
Justin Gray’s Grammy®-winning album Immersed was composed, recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered all with Dolby Atmos® in mind, from the very beginning. In this conversation, guest host Ben Givarz is joined by Gray, co-producer Drew Jurecka, immersive mastering engineer Michael Romanowski, and Dolby’s Greg “Stryke” Chin to discuss how the team crafted a captivating musical experience featuring 38 artists from around the world, where every performance, microphone placement, production choice, and mix decision was designed to put the listener at the center of the music. Together, they explore how Immersed reimagines what an album can be when space is treated not as an afterthought, but as a core part of the composition itself.
“Space is a really, really powerful storytelling tool and a powerful production tool. And so when I sat down to write the music, I definitely set out with this thing: I want to make a project where I write the music from the start, produce it for immersive audio.”
—Justin Gray, Composer, Immersive Mix Engineer, and Producer, Immersed
