Love this track with my HD650s and my LittleDot amp
post #2764 of 28753/6/13 at 7:42amThe record label Ultimae's releases sound amazing on gear:
Solar Fields - Leaving Home (Probably the most profound musical experience I've had)
Carbon Based Lifeforms - Interloper
H.U.V.A Netwrok - Ephemeris
Hol Baumann - Human
I'm not posting any videos because these albums should be listened to in its entirety. Takes you on an amazing journey, if you're up for it.

post #2766 of 28753/6/13 at 3:43pmWaltz for Debbie (take 2) performed by the Bill Evans Trio
This song is all about the mids.. The brushwork on the drums is phenomenal; actually, every aspect of this song is phenomenal.

Patricia Barber-Smash-My first real introduction to intimate Jazz. This CD was just released. It's just her, her piano and a 3 piece band. Her voice just soars, and the stand-up bass. You can hear the scratching and slapping of the strings on the wood fretboard like he is standing right next to you. I can't get enough of this through my HD800's.
You chose well. She's quite an artist. Used to be, in-the-know out-of-town visitors to Chicago would seek out the bar where she performed weekly. Don't know if she still does that (at the Green Mill Tavern)...

I came across the song G-Sting by SALM (Something A La Mode) on my Electronica playlist on Pandora and I feel in love with the song. Its a very interesting song with a good beat and surprising detail . It also hits every part of the frequency range with some real deep lows. Its kinda like a modern take on Classical Music pretty cool stuff!post #2774 of 28753/8/13 at 1:40pm- mab1376

I know black metal isn't for everyone, but this track has some great instrumentals that really shine with the HD650s
