VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA — Just off the freeway in the Valley is the Sound City Complex, a horseshoe-shaped building in the middle of an industrial zone.

I’m here at the invitation of Will Kennedy and Mike Wallace, a couple of audio alchemists whose current job is turning stereo mixes into something bigger and grander.

A small console sits near the middle, surrounded by a tall metal structure that holds four speakers at the top pointing down at the floor.

And who can afford a home audio system with 13 speakers, all specifically arranged and powered by amps that require their own modular reactor?

In fact, you may have already experienced Spatial Audio if you’ve got Apple Music or have downloaded specially encoded songs from iTunes.

Glancing at the folder filled with mixes in progress, I see some very big names, including a couple with unreleased albums that are in the process of getting ATMOS-ized.
