I'm rocking two Arendal subs that usually don't get much love from Atmos mixes, but this mix was a bit too much for me in the bass department.
I just listened with my Air Pod Pro 2’s. Same results, very diffuse, lacking the heft of the original. It does show off, in a BIG way, the ability of ATMOS to let you hear discrete musical elements all around you but it’s not very cohesive and doesn’t serve the music.
So it takes 17 months, 5 studios and 3 engineers to spoil the mix. [sigh]
Agreed. Listened in 5.1. It's certainly not horrible, but a lot more would have been possible. Lots of echo (at least that suits the record) and the occasional isolated element in the surrounds. I'd give it a 5-6.
Sadly, seems nowhere to be found. But we can take it out on the whale & wasp:
100% with you on that.

If I’m not mistaken on the Dirt anniversary it took a week or so longer for the streaming release to actually show up. I could be wrong though. Hoping this is the case.
Thanks, always appreciate specific mentions of notable mixes or records.
