I actually don’t remember. Too many releases to have things sorted in my simple mind.
I went through the Beach Boys albums in my library recently, after a post on this thread alerting that some of the early albums that were in Atmos had disappeared, and Carl & The Passions was one of them that hadn't been removed. I believe the other hangers-on are the Christmas Album, Holland, Pet Sounds and the Sounds Of Summer compilation, plus the new Surf's Up and Sunflower mixes. Disclaimer: this is from memory and might not be totally accurate.
 
2112 (song) Atmos mix sounds much more aggressive than the 5.1 mix. The tracks after 2112 sounded better in 5.1 if I remember correctly. Only at Discovery now and it is great.
 
Although I'm listening in stereo with headphones, here's a bit of Spanish music history, when flamenco turned into experimental pop/rock/prog. I'll check the surrond tomorrow (Triana was a trio, so the mix may have its limitations)
The mix for "Abre la puerta" that was released a month ago was one of my favorites of the year!
If the album sounds just as good the single, this could be amazing.

Thank you for the member who posted that single. I Never heard of them before.
It's King Crimson meets Flamenco and it's freaking great!

"Abre la puerta" is IMHO the best prog rock song ever written by a Spanish band.
 
Anyone have any thoughts on the Rush self-titled Atmos mix? It’s the only one that hasn’t been remixed prior so I’m curious. If anything it’s good to know the multitracks are still available.

I’m really hoping for Caress of Steel now!
Before and After intro has the most layers and it sounds nicely separated, to me.
 
2112 is so much better than his 5.1 mix! Dig the waterfall over my left shoulder on the title track.
Plus no buried lead guitar, and just better sound, overall.
The rhythm section freaking SLAMS. Even better on AFtK.
Hemi sounds a bit hissy, but it always has. And the ambient stormy section in the back half of the song might have some rough tape moments. Still, it’s MUCH better than the previous 5.1 mix, which I f’!king hate.
 
Lots of releases! But where the heck is Brotherhood (New Order)? And why have they shifted the previous New Order releases back to stereo on their Apple Music page (while they still exist in Atmos if you added them to your library)? Anyone who knows what happened?
