Just Listen and Native DSD are teaming up to release an album featuring 8 new artists (ensembles) performing Acoustic, Bossa Nova, Classical, Jazz, Swing and Vocal music.
The album is titled 8 Ensembles in 1 Bit and will have 12 tracks when it is released on July 3, 2015. It will be available as a DSD Download only - not on SACD, CD, Vinyl LP, Open Reel Tape or other download formats.

The album will be available in Multichannel and Stereo DSD at 3 DSD bit rates - DSD 64fs (for Oppo and older DACs), DSD 128fs and DSD 256fs. (The recording was made at DSD 256fs.)
If the album is a success, there will likely be more albums made and released in the "in 1 Bit" series which could include additional artists and musical genres. Very interesting.

You can provide some feedback about the music to the Just Listen and Native DSD team by emailing Floor van der Holst at [email protected] or on the Native DSD Music Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/NativeDSDMusic. Enjoy!

8 Ensembles in 1 Bit - New Jazz and Classical Music Artists in Multichannel and Stereo DSD
https://justlisten.nativedsd.com/albums/jl0028-ensembles-in-1-bit#
 
Today is the release date for the long-awaited original DSD 256 recording 8 Ensembles in 1 Bit. As noted above, it is the first in a potential series of original recordings in Stereo and Multichannel DSD.

The album features 8 artists (ensembles) that play music in a variety of genres including Acoustic, Bossa Nova, Classical, Jazz, Swing and Vocal. The album is only available as a DSD Download, not on SACD, CD, Vinyl LP and other formats. It's available, regular price, for $14.67 (Stereo DSD only) to $19.27 (Stereo + Multichannel DSD "combi deal").

The Stereo DSD tracks are very good. And the Multichannel DSD tracks are recorded to give you room filling sonics. Very enjoyable.
Looking forward to more of these releases in the future.

"Excellent variety, and a fine way to showcase Jared’s remarkable art as a producer and audio engineer. I used the Merging Technologies NADAC to do the listening… the results are exceptional." - David W. Robinson, Editor in Chief, Positive Feedback

"This is how the most amazing quality DSD gets done, if you ever wondered." - Lukasz Fikus, Owner & Developer, LampizatOr

"This recording is a tour-de-force of acoustic fidelity, using the most advanced DSD recording equipment available, purest microphone techniques, and no post processing sweetening. In other words, the real McCoy of reality recording. It also presents a relatively broad genre of music, attractive to all."
- Tom Caulfield, Grammy Award Winning Recording Engineer and Mastering Engineer for Native DSD.Com
