I did my best with the Atmos mix to give the music the respect it deserves, by going back to the multitrack tapes and making sure that every sound and nuance in the original stereo mix was accounted for.”Īmong the album’s highlights are two favorites off Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ 1976 self-titled debut: “Breakdown,” which served as their first single and first Top 40 hit, and the classic rock radio staple, “American Girl.” Another late ‘70s selection is the high-energy “Don’t Do Me Like That,” which marked the band’s only Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Several great producers and engineers contributed to these classic tracks. “The goal with this Atmos mix is simple: get people closer to the music they love, by putting them inside it! Greatest Hits has so many iconic recordings that fans have lived with and loved over the years. “It was a joy listening to the tapes and discovering all the sonic elements that went into each song, and then presenting them in a new, compelling, and immersive way,” says Ulyate.
