This by far is one of the best headphone tests I know of and it's one remarkably well composed song. You just don't hear low freq. used this carefully very much. I've tried this one with many phones, obviously a killer amp is a must, but many phones struggle to make it sound right.
The tonal balance/rhythm/sonic textures are very compelling and a great test of headphone presentation. Obviously you'll want to hear this off the CD (which in itself is an amazing album.)

Me too! I had the Mortal Kombat Soundtrack (also highly recommended) on tape and listened to it almost everyday in middle school, mostly when rollerblading. I had no idea at the time it was Juno reactor though.
I first hear that particular Juno album/song at a Head-Fi meet in Portland,OR. Needless to say I was blown away and tried the song with as many headphones as I could.

I just ordered a couple of CDs that I hope will be fun and fascinating to hear with my new Audez'e LCD-2 < tube amp.
Pink Floyd DSOTM - "MFSL Gold CD"
Dire Straits - Dire Straits (remaster) ... have only heard the vinyl, and love it.
Not quite organized enough to make a list of songs, but I will eventually.

My K701 (newer model) which are known for being thinner than the Qs, I find great for everything except more dynamic rock and metal..
I drive them with a Lyr (CV2492 Mullard) and they do sound fantastic with electronic music. I have to admit I don;t listen to it a lot. Try Avicii - Levels (if you are into that kind of electronic) and you will see.
They excel with Jazz, Classical, Classic rock (the more analytical stuff), blues.. but everything else works well except for metal and hard rock.
When it comes to jazz, I feel like I rediscover them every time I listen to a different album. Take Bitches Brew (by Miles Davis - God Himself) for example, I have a 24/192 vinyl rip of amazing quality.. Grado cartridge and stuff and it sounds brilliant. Jazz with vocals is also rather enjoyable like Diana Krall. So for jazz i'd recommend: Miles Davis - Sanctuary (Bitches Brew) and Diana Krall - Temptation or Black Crow (The Girl in the other room)
Classical music depends very much on the production quality. My favorites are John Williams - The Imperial March and Ennio Morricone - Once Upon A time in America (the whole soundtrack). (Yea I love film music)
Rock is generally very good and despite that you can find something sounding thin, there is a huge abundance of albums that are fantastic. For instance: Eric Clapton - Unplugged; Clapton, BB King - Riding with the King, CCR - greatest hits, Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing. Try Layla (Unplugged), Have you ever seen the rain - CCR, Dire Straits - Private investigations
Other songs I just thought of:
Luciano Pavarotti - Caruso
Jamiroquai - Cosmic Girl
Simply Red - If you dont know me by now

Here an old song from the now gone band called Harmonium. The song is "En pleine face" from Jorane. It's in french but I'm sure you can feel the emotion without the words.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

The intro never fails to give me the shivers.....
Always imagined a siren singing across a vast void.
