Only up to 2nd track. This is a very full on mix- which I expected the Grammy listening folks would’ve preferred something more conservative.

Happily surprised!
I listened to almost all of it last night (it’s LONG) and was pretty knocked out by the mix as well, even in 5.1. Pretty cool record.
 
I’ve posted about this here before but now I can say that all 8 hours 24 minutes and 21 seconds of Max Richer’s Sleep are now in Atmos.

Annoyingly at the moment the only version with it, is the one divided into 204 tracks (a way to get more streaming revenue off of a very very very very long album), meaning you’ll have to deal with Apple Music’s less than stellar gapless playback between all 204 tracks.
 
Jorge Drexler - Tinta y Tiempo
This album definitely stands out in the Latin pop category for me (5.1).
Fave track: ¡Oh, Algoritmo!, quite Beckesque.

Oh, this is really nice! I'm glad to know about this artist. (And a guest vocal from Ruben Blades on the opening track--hey, @kap'n krunch!) Would love to see more older & classic artists from Central/South America, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the rest of the Caribbean get Atmos upgrades.

P.S. after a second listen: this is a great album with an excellent Atmos mix. Can't believe I didn't know about Drexler before now. Fans of Gilberto Gil or Tom ZĂ© should check him out.

I do not find ANY Pink Floyd Atmos on Tidal

Only some 360, including Money
As far as I know, there are no Pink Floyd songs in Atmos. The Post-1987 Pink Floyd albums are streaming in 5.1 on Apple and it is my hope that the upcoming release of Animals will also stream in 5.1 (and then perhaps they will fill in the other previous releases).
 
Ha, is this an ode to Atmos?! 🤔

Alfie Templeman - 3D Feelings

4 great tracks from the upcoming album - Mellow Moon. Out 27/5, same day as Liam Gallagher I think. If you listen to the lyrics of 3D feelings - it really sounds like it's about Atmos! :) "I see three-dimensional feelings... Bouncing off of the ceiling... Coming off of the wall... do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do... I love it... do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do... I do" 🎶

when I was growing up , in PR you were either a ROCKERO or a COCOLO (Salsa Lover!)..took me a while until I became a "ROCKOLO"...the main concert venues were either the Hiram Bithorn Stadium or the Coliseo Roberto Clemente (and there were MANY a Salsa concerts there!), unfortunately the Salsa concerts did not feature the stage nor the sound specs of a ROCK CONCERT (LOUD!) and the FIRST concert after MANY years in PR and in the Coliseo was the U.K.(Jobson-/Wetton/Bozzio) Concert in Thanksgiving Eve in 1979 which was my FIRST ROCK CONCERT EVER and you can find them in youtube ..for example..

Mike Mettler's descriptions of Atmos mixes are getting ever more detailed and precise. In this week's column, he practically delivers a disquisition on Wet Leg's "Chaise Longue." On the strength of his recommendations, I'll probably check out the other four tracks he writes about, too!
