I reached out to Robert about the release and here are more albums that are included:
Filaments
What We Left Behind
Vestiges
The Biode
Atlas Dei
Medicine Box
Ylang

Robert said it was ok to share this list. I think that leaves one more unknown one when you count in Tactile Ground.

Q4-Bert, he's got your Atlas Dei covered!

Hmmm, Calling Down the Sky would be nice. As would one of the live recordings. I doubt we'll see Stalker, since it is a collaboration (like Lift a Feather to the Flood, which I was also hoping for...).

Any info about this release with 5.1 mix by Bruce Soord? I've emailed them through bandcamp, but no answer...:(
They use to reply quite quickly in Facebook. Last time I asked they said it was coming, but I guess their new album Sanctuary will be released before. But God knows if plans will be impacted with the global crisis.

Steve Rothery (Marillion) is likely to release a solo album before this year's end, 5.1 mix included - info taken from steverothery.com:
The crowdfunding campaign for the Revontulet album will be launched on September 28th 2020. Please subscribe to the
mailing list to receive news on the different editions, release date and availability of the limited edition CD/DVD (including 5.1 mix).
See the La Silla trailer here and also purchase this first track from the Revontulet album via Bandcamp.
Also, there's this older video:
Work in progress version of the first part of the track Garganta Del Diablo from the forthcoming album Revontulet.
In Finnish, the name for the aurora borealis is "Revontulet", which literally translated means "Fox Fires." The name comes from an ancient Finnish myth, a beast fable, in which the lights were caused by a magical fox sweeping his tail across the snow spraying it up into the sky.

Vincero!
Piotr Beczala, Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana conducted by Marco Boemi
Pentatone

https://www.nativedsd.com/albums/PTC5186733-vincero

On April 24, 2020, NativeDSD teamed up with Pentatone to release a DSD Single of ‘Nessun Dorma' the world-famous tenor aria from Puccini’s last opera Turandot with star tenor Piotr Beczala. It provided our listeners with a tasty sneak preview of Beczala's upcoming album on Pentatone. Now we are proud to bring you the full album in Stereo DSD (up to DSD 512), Multichannel DSD (up to DSD 256), and Stereo and Multichannel DXD.

Global star tenor Piotr Beczala presents Vincerò!, the first fruit of his exclusive collaboration with Pentatone. Vincerò! is a collection of heart-wrenching opera arias by Puccini, Mascagni, Leoncavallo, Giordano and Cilea.

For Beczala, this recording documents his vocal transition from the lyrical tenor repertoire to the more dramatic roles of Verismo. It marks a significant new chapter in his stage career. Beczala is accompanied by the Cor de la Generalitat Valenciana and the Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana, led by maestro Marco Boemi; an extraordinary singer's conductor who has worked with the greatest vocalists of our age.

Piotr Beczala has the kind of voice you want to hang medals on. Its luminosity makes many of his fellow lyric tenors, past, and present, sound by comparison like flickering candlewicks. Beczalas clarity and cleanliness of tone are the essences of his appeal. (Opera News Awards, 2015)
 
Looks like I have to take a trip over to Native DSD this weekend. Brian, in a nutshell the difference in your opinion between DSD and DXD.

Yes, there are some good releases this weekend at NativeDSD Music.

I buy music at the highest DSD bit rate that my DAC and portable Digital Audio Player and Converter can handle for best sound quality.

When comparing DSD and DXD, you can always buy 1 track in both formats (DSD 256 and DXD) at NativeDSD and compare them before buying a full album in either format.
My preference is DSD.

Here's a special treat from Eudora Records and Native DSD Music. An Early Release of the new album B Minor Sonatas by pianist Josep Colom. His 4th DSD 256 release from Eudora. The album is "A journey through Chopin and Liszt’s spiritual sides."

As with all the Eudora Records releases, this is a Native DSD 256 Stereo & DSD 256 Multichannel recording. Brought to you in its Native DSD 256 recording resolution with no DXD or PCM post-processing! The album was recorded with the Horus Analog to DSD 256 converter from Merging Technologies, microphones from Sonodore, Schoeps Mikrofone, and a Neumann U89 and monitored on Dutch & Dutch 8C speakers.

Be sure to pick up a copy during your next visit to our Native DSD Music store in Stereo and Multichannel DSD (up to DSD 256) and Stereo DSD 512. More details on the NativeDSD Blog and all 4 Josep Colom DSD 256 releases are linked below.
