I often overlook something rather central to my topic... This time, I forgot to mention one of my favorite Atmos albums to date (it was hiding in my Auro pile)!
2L's Mass for Modern Man. It has both 11.1 Atmos and 9.1 Auro-3D, the only disc I know of with both (there may be others).

Not sure if it can be auditioned free anywhere, but I find the music to be utterly glorious. Just about couldn't love it more.

 

[edisonbaggins]

Not sure if this is still the best deal available:

**edit: haha - this post was intended for another thread. All's well that ends well though.**

 

[esimms86]

I expect there will be more 2L recordings represented in your Auro 3D video installment.

 

[edisonbaggins]

The long-awaited (for me)...
Marillion - Mispaced Childhood
Steven Wilson 5.1 Remix

Great coincidence, as I finally (finally) found a copy of this for an acceptable price - it's currently on its way from the UK. This one went OOP and crazy expensive real fast.

I hope you love it as much as I do!

Mike, finally got the chance to watch your ATMOS/AURO video and IMO, you did a fantastic job. IMO, I know this is a music website but I read the movie reviews on Blu Ray.com daily and methinks the BEST mixes in ATMOS today are created for movies by academy award winning sound engineers. Since a lot of UHD 4k discs sporting ATMOS soundtracks are available today for MUCH less than music only ATMOS ones and more readily available, I would think that might make for a future Life In Surround video.

You'll need to do an update/addendum if and when Kind Of Blue and Sketches Of Spain are released in Dolby Atmos.

Killer! I'll leave some YouTube feedback for you (does that have a familiar ring to it?). Your graphics are again most helpful; somehow your Sketches of Spain graphic is labeled Tutu.

Oh! Shameless plug: I'm giving away a copy of the Sketches of Spain you review on this QQ thread.

I scored a Montreux box set last year for $76. My recollection is that the recordings are discrete! Sadly, still no picture on the telly, so I can't check for you. Ima keep praying that the picture comes back while I do research on what new tv to buy! Any hoo, keep up the great work--you did well with your assessment of BB! Straight from the heart! Stay Surrounded!

Clement, sorry to break the news ...but the picture on your TELLY ain't coming back. When my Panasonic Plasma TV died ....... it was indeed moribund. Unfortunately, NO reincarnation. Time to invest in a new TV!
