Audible launches immersive audiobooks with an initial catalogue of more than 40+ titles in Dolby Atmos format. It includes some of the service’s most popular Originals, including Letters From Camp, Maejor Frequency, Oliver Twist, The Prophecy, and The Sandman: Act III. New releases include The Little Mermaid, narrated by Leigh-Anne Pinnock alongside the Audible Emerging Playwright Commission Marrow by Aditi Kapild. The Dolby Atmos titles are available to all Audible members globally to stream and download through the Audible app on compatible iOS and Android Dolby Atmos-enabled mobile devices.
The use of Dolby Atmos has empowered creators and storytellers to push the boundaries of audio-only narratives through the ability to place sounds in a multidimensional space. Through the ability to create more layers of sound and control over the directionality of different audio elements, creators can draw listeners into a deeper, richer, and more lifelike spatial sound experience that fully engrosses them in each story.
Leading Audible’s slate of titles available in Dolby Atmos is The Little Mermaid, the magical retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairy tale. Narrated by singer-songwriter, actor, and member of Little Mix, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, the story follows the journey of a young mermaid who is willing to give up her life under the sea in exchange for becoming human. Parents and kids alike will experience this classic like never before as it is brought to life with Dolby Atmos.
