Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[user 1679]

Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize

 

[4-earredwonder]

A REMARKABLE DISCRETE QUAD SACD REMASTER considering the original Discrete QUAD analogue remixes no longer exist! KUDOS to Michael Dutton for 'pulling the rabbit out of the hat' on this one and to Bob James' exquisite arrangements....and keyboard wizardry!

 

[4-earredwonder]

An exceptionally vivid Discrete QUAD SACD remaster by Michael J. Dutton from the original Columbia Masterworks analogue master QUAD Tapes

 

[4-earredwonder]

IMO, a REAL COUP ..... Conductor Michael Tilson Thomas conducting the Columbia Jazz Band in a rousing DISCRETE rendition of George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue accompanied by George Gershwin on the piano via the legendary 1925 Piano Rolls. From the Dutton EPOCH 2 disc QUAD SACD set Carmina Burana...Disc 2, which among other selections also contains MTT conducting Gershwin's An American in Paris with the New York Philharmonic

Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein - Spheres CD + DVD

Music: Slightly dark, instrumental soundtrack to an art exhibtion with a space theme.
Sound: The sound is let down slightly by being DD-only but seeing as it's non-organic it still sounds OK.
Mix: Excellent - sounds all around, all the time, with discreteness when required and ambience when required. Also quite a lot of panning, but nothing silly. A perfect mix.

There is a 7.4.1 mix of this which must be great. I don't think it's on disc - maybe streaming only? [I'm not Atmos-capable or a streamer (yet)].

Art, based on your recommendation I ordered a copy. Thanks for the heads UP! Always looking for Surround Music off the beaten path!

Why don't you just buy the album and find out for yourself, Gene!
