Anybody out there know of any punk rock titles on Apple Music? The search function in Apple Music is giving me no love on this one...

53 years old and still sounds as fresh now.

Just give all the Atmos mixes to Steve.

Another fantastic mix.

2nd half all tracks 1-9 don't play at all except Atmos track 8.
First half songs 1-13 all stereo.

No ATMOS here in the states.

Interesting. I’m in the states and it was in Atmos yesterday and still is this morning. But I think this sort of thing has happened before... some people see an album in Atmos and others don’t. Rush’s Signals comes to mind.

Did you check to see if the album is already in your library? If so you’ll have to delete it then it should show up in Atmos.

 

[gwlbe]

Its in my phyiscal library on my phone and ipads. I only add ATMOS titles to playlists. Apple makes it very difficult to keep copies of ripped music with my own metadata on my devices.

Definitely Atmos in rainy California.

I received the following email from Dolby Professional, which I suspect is worth sharing but doesn’t merit its own thread. This one seems to me the most logical place. If not, mods please do one of those magical mod things you do…

I like Iggy's new one. The surround mix isn't spectacular, but the music is solid:

Seems to me that it would've been a better move for dolby to have promoted the atmos format via podcasts and audiobooks first. Immersive sound fx and score adds so much to audio, it's cheap to produce, etc. Most of what I see online is that people don't understand atmos for music. They misunderstand the concept/it sounds bad/it doesn't sound the same/don't get that it is a format and not an effect/airpods blah blah. Immersive for audio just seems easier to understand and execute. Footsteps coming from behind you in a story. Easy, got it.

Got moondance in Atmos but no Thelonious Monk

 

[HomerJAU]

Pink Floyd - DSOTM now on Tidal: ID: 283628182

EDIT: Pretty conservative mix, more immersive than discrete. First impressions: Not bad but not worth $300 for the BDA. Wait for a Steven Wilson or Alan Parsons mix (which means wait forever most probably).

Any Colour You Like (5.1.4) waveform:. Quad with synth in heights

Upcoming new Chemical Brothers album, lead single in Atmos

Just heard it all and I agree with your impressions.
They didn't go crazy with surround or height channels in most songs. They tried to preserve the stereo front wall as much as they could.
For example, you would presume that the cash register effect at the start of "Money" will be moved to the height channels, but no. They kept it in FLFR and only when the music starts and the cash register effect is back, then they moved it "upstairs".
Also, for some reason, "Brain Damage" is still in stereo for me.

All in all, it's not a bad mix. I just think that our expectations were just too high for this release.
