Released today on Tidal. St. Vincent's Daddy's Home. Produced by her (Annie Clark) and Jack Antonoff. "Immersive Mix" by Mert Ozcan. Can't wait to hear the Atmos mix. The stereo mix is fantastic. The music references Pink Floyd a few times, and '70s music in general.
I've been a fan for a long time and consider her one of the bright stars of today.

Ooo--that's exciting! Heard about this album a week or so ago. Ozcan did the Atmos mix of Rhye's latest.

I listened to it yesterday. At first i felt that she had gone in an musical direction i wasn´t so interested in. But as the album progressed i really started to like it. As i feel about all the other Dolby Atmos albums that sounds so fine on Tidal i really hope they will get an release outside streaming one day. But if not i am at least happy to hear it like this
 


When listened to in TIDAL Atmos minute 2:13 of the Prescription is Love is exactly how I would love for Steve Wilson to move around the moog when he does the atmos version of Camel Lunar sea ( really Steve drop the 2 channel crap and get on this numero uno priority on the ToTart Up Queue Andy Latimer said you, da man, for it), this Extraordinary Drum and Bass album is the best recorded Atmos Album in my opinion. The strings are also reminiscent of MFSB 1.

Here is a rather cryptic contact list at Hospital Records
Those of you in the music business, who would be your pick for us to collectively email them demanding the release on Blu-ray?

Between QQ and avsforum the word would pass around like fire, they could sell 1,000 for a pretty penny.

A mixed but respectful review in yesterday's Times (open that link in a private window if you need to avoid the paywall), and not one but two pieces at NPR, a long review and an interview:

I found these excellent lists on AVSForum showing Tidal Atmos tracks on Tidal:

Updated 05.11.21
Basic list (no album art) - tidal_atmos_master list_basic.pdf
While it's great that someone created this list, I would not consider it as a "Master List".
First of all, it doesn't have the all important links to the albums / play lists / tracks.
And the list is not complete.

For example, these albums that have been mentioned in this thread are missing, and a few others.
Suzanne Ciani - LIVE Quadraphonic (there are two albums in Tidal, but the list only has one of them)
https://tidal.com/browse/album/171479842Matt Darey - Wolf
https://tidal.com/browse/album/149636865
Another example is that it includes a track in an album, but not the rest of the tracks in the album:
Why Don't We - The Good Times and The Bad Ones
https://tidal.com/browse/album/169632417
And it's missing several songs that are in the "Tracks" section in the main Dolby Atmos page:
https://listen.tidal.com/view/pages/dolby_atmosLike these ones that have been mentioned in this thread:
* Al Jarreau - We're In This Love Together (Atmos Mix)
* Grover Washington, Jr. - Just The Two Of Us (feat. Bill Withers) [Atmos Mix]
* Spinners - I'll Be Around (Atmos Mix)
* En Vogue: My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It) [Atmos Mix]
* Tower Of Power - So Very Hard To Go (Atmos Mix)
* The Buggles: Video Killed The Radio Star

And some examples that are not in that "Tracks" section, to name a few:

Billy Idol
https://tidal.com/browse/track/135322165https://tidal.com/browse/track/138469747
Frankie Goes to Hollywood: Relax
https://tidal.com/browse/track/135322171
Colbie Caillat - Brighter Than The Sun
https://tidal.com/browse/track/131069512
Ariana Grande
Problem
https://tidal.com/browse/track/134283224Imagine
https://tidal.com/browse/track/134283198

But I understand why the list is not complete -- we all know that it's a pain to search for Atmos songs in Tidal if they are not in the main Atmos page ( Playlists / Albums / Tracks ) that I pasted above, which is the same as what you will see in the 'Explore: Dolby Atmos" page in a mobile phone. And the streaming apps in the Firestick, Apple TV, etc don't even have the "Tracks" section.

You know there are so many Dolby Atmos albums stuck on Tidal which is a shame considering Tidal's Dolby Atmos is lossy E-AC-3 at 768kbps.
If one could get these files is there a way to level the volume and apply 3 band dynamic range expansion? Also years ago using Jriver wasapi the upsampling definitely worked on 2 channels for a 15% improvement. Could we do all these things to improve the SQ.of these lossy Atmos?

The SQ is fine considering the lower bit rate. Just crank your overall volume to get them louder. :cool:

But then when you exit Tidal to go to CNN Fareed Zachariah can blow up your pricey Esotars and your eardrums....:D

And another thing....How the hell do you skip songs in Tidal on AppleTV? You can't afaik.

There was a "tease" somewhere that I read that Apple Music would have ATMOS offerings. We will see soon enough...if it's real ATMOS, and they have at least as much as Tidal or more, I may be swayed to Apple Music and cancel Tidal. Some of what I've read only references Airpods. If it's only for Airpods, then I'll be staying with Tidal.

Here is one of those teases: Apple Music HiFi With Dolby Atmos Support Coming | Production Expert

Here is the one that mentions Airpods: Lossless audio references found in Apple Music web app as company teases special announcement - 9to5Mac
