Just listened to the Binaural Atmos mix for the first time and it’s incredible. This album was enhanced the most of any of them.

Ah yeah!!

Listening to Binaural now on Apple music. All songs I'm seeing are in Atmos. It sounds amazing on my Airpods Pro 2.
Damn, I remember listening to this CD with headphones back in the day thinking "This is amazing". This is a next level for sure.

Binaural recordings are best experienced on headphones. It's going to be interesting hearing the spatial mix on a 7.1 system.

Dayum!! I listened to Binaural in Dolby Atmos yesterday on APP 2s. 🤯 😮

Cant believe how much fuller it sounds.

I liked it before in Atmos on my AirPods. Never got a chance to listen on the home theater system, so I will be doing that soon.

I finally got around to listening to Binaural on my Atmos system and wow. It's everything I was hoping it would be and more. I usually jot down "demo" tracks when I come across them in my listening. These are tracks where the use of surround is so excellent that I would use them if I was demo'ing Atmos music to someone for the first time, etc. Many mixes don't have any. The ones that do might have one to three. Genuinely, I put like 5 or 6 tracks from Binaural on my Demo Tracks list. It's spectacular in Atmos. "Of The Girl" and "Nothing As It Seems" were everything I always dreamed they could be. But I was surprised at tracks like "Evacuation" and "Insignificance." Both of those tracks are incredible in surround. The whole album works so well. I cannot wait to listen more!

Just curious, do you have a full Atmos set up? My wife got me a bose smart sound bar , i know its not the full atmos experience but it’s much better then airpods.

Full Atmos setup here - Denon X3800H, B&W 600 S2 AE Series towers for fronts, the centre speaker, and bookshelves as rears, Cambridge Audio Minx Min22’s as the overheads and an SVS SB-3000 Sub. Very happy with it.

So far have listened to Binaural, which is unreal, and Dark Matter, which is a bit of a mixing mess. First couple of songs seem to have volume issues, especially the end of Scared of Fear which loses volume at a weird point. Tried on two different players so isn’t that. Just seems a poor mix in Atmos - doesn’t happen with the LPCM version.

Will be trying Vitalogy tonight, looking forward to that

My setup is technically 5.1, so I don't yet have any ceiling or rear speakers. My receiver is Atmos, so it decodes and plays in 5.1.

Very underrated but I'm hoping they release Backspacer on Dolby Atmos. Also it's the only Pearl Jam album that hasn't been released officially yet in 24Bit Flac-HD.

At this point, I think it's a given that all remaining studio albums will be released in Atmos. Maybe even Lost Dogs?

The only question is if they are going to wait until album anniversaries to release them on Blu-Ray, like Vitalogy and Binaural. I guess No Code and Avocado would be next (30 and 20 years, respectively) for next year. The way the Atmos No Code mix was talked about in the last newsletter regarding Present Tense (redux) could indicate it might be next. Or it might just be me getting my hopes up.

edit: Ten will also be 35 years (!) next year.

I'm hoping next month 10club releases both Ten & No Code on Atmos Blu-ray.

How about a Backspacer 24 Bit Flac release?

strilo · August 12

For the record, I was talking about releasing the remaining albums in Atmos on streaming. No Code therefore is already out. The topic of releasing the Atmos mixes on physical media is different. I do think it's likely, but somewhat more could change with that before they're all out on disc. With streaming Atmos, I feel like it's a lot more of a foregone conclusion.
