Quiet Winter Night: An Acoustic Jazz Project - Hoff Ensemble (Grammy Nominee for best Surround) BD Audio - lovely, understated acoustic jazz with some vocals (in Norwegian) -doesn't matter - still lovely and in 24/192 5.1 - stunning clarity and presence!

I'm quite impressed with 2L - the nomination of Morton Lyndberg for Surround mixing and production is as well deserving as SW (I still prefer SW but this is pretty close). These titles are definitely worth checking out.

Nice to hear a positive review of "Quiet Winter Night". I am really looking forward to receiving my copy. I haven't heard anything from 2L before, but the sound clips and the Grammy nomination made me place an order. The music itself is not what I usually go for, but I am a sucker for good sound and good surround no matter what the genre.

How is that?
 
How is that?

Picture quality is OK (for the source) The Dolby TrueHD sound quality is crap... I'd score it a 3 or 2. (n)

Interestingly its been released as a Region B only Blu-ray for Australasia (I presume)..

Just listened to this last night. Wow! This kind of music isn't generally my thing, but I am very impressed. The sound quality is stunning, and the 5.1 mix is fantastic. It is not a gimmicky mix with instruments panning around you. Instead, the mix puts the listener in the middle of the action, with vocals dead center, percussion in the rears, guitars, violin, and piano across the front. Like this picture:

It is definitely demo quality.

Is there a poll for this?
 
Recoil.jpg

The first BD authored by our own Neil Wilkes - and a dandy to boot! For those unaware, Recoil is the moniker of a ongoing EDM/IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) project by former Depeche Mode keyboardist, Alan Wilder. The BD presents a concert recorded live in Budapest - "Helloooo, Budapest - great to be back!." Very remininscent of Kraftwerks' "Minimum Maximum" except it's 2 guys with laptops and Maschines instead of 4. Very well shot and edited - the 5.1 DTS HD MA 24/96 live surround mix is exemplary with plenty of discrete goings on in the rears. The crowd in the film is quite enthusiastic but are edited out during the songs proper. Highly recommended - would be great to show one of our own some support. It can be obtained via Amazon US direct or via it's marketplace sellers here;
