Listening to in Dolby Atmos Streaming, via Tidal/Apple/Amazon

[Ephi82]

well i think (and i'm sure one of the poor sods, i mean Mods, who have to do all the work making the Polls etc., will confirm either way!!) its a toss-up whether to do Polls for the streaming stuff or not as some of it (not a great deal to be fair) is "here today, gone tomorrow"!?

I vote for taking a little time for more discussions about how the music “ sounds”. It’s fine to point out if there’s mixes with slight use of the surrounds and heights, and warnings about fake, lazy machine ATMOS mixes, but I think there is so much more to discuss and enjoy about the recordings and mixes.

Agreed, but let's not dissect too much at first; we clearly need a triage approach of pass/fail as the first gate. Low hanging (rotted) fruit.

And since rating streaming immersive music has no category for packaging, what will the scale be? I notice Beerking gave Snarky Puppy a 4 or 5 but not sure what that's scaled as either.

Yes it's back, I played it on Friday night. This is just the original album without the rest, but it still is a fantastic mix.

The All The Rest version is still up too (tracks 1-25 all in Atmos)

these are all gonna be fake aren't they...

 

[fredblue]

i'd expect these to be fake, given their vintage and i'm not unhappy about that

Kip!

in the words of Robbie Williams;

"is it real or is it fake?
Oprah Winfrey, Rikki Lake..."

Rikki Lake... Warners are certainly "teaching us things we don't wanna know"...

The jazzy new Strong remix by RW has a real mix though!

Dua Lipa - Dua Lipa

Tidal - Try the TIDAL Web Player
Think this was only available in 360RA before. Pretty cool mix!

 

[beerking]

Not normally my thing but it's not too bad...Great mix..
And there was me thinking it said 'Intergalactic'!! By the Beastie Boys...I wish.

And a score of 8.5

 

[beerking]

Now this one is a delight mix wise...an easy 9

It's certainly different.

 

[beerking]

Finally this evening, rock on with Willow....my score 9

 

[LennonCobain]

 

[beerking]

Not quite finally ...this is exquisite...a 9.5

So Oingo Boingo's Dead Man's Party just showed up on the featured albums page in Apple Music. However, I am only getting 2 songs in surround (the title track and "Weird Science"). Anybody else getting the full album?

The two songs sound great.

Those two tracks on Tidal too. They sound good, but the volume level on the title track is super low.
