Across 24 Nights audio producer and Eric Clapton’s long-time musical collaborator Simon Climie said, “We have completely Remixed the audio for the concerts in Dolby Atmos from scratch as well as editing and Re-Grading the film from original rushes that we found. It’s been quite a journey, and we are excited for the fans to hear these remarkable performances – often called the Holy Grail for the Eric Clapton fan – in Immersive Sound – in the cinema for the first time.”
