Created a radio station within Pandora based on "Spyro Gyra," set on discovery mode early this morning. Wasn't sure if I was really in that sort of 'la-ti-da' jazz kind of mood but much can be said for mostly great recordings, subs, and enough SPL. I tend to discount the SPL part when trying to figure a certain genre type to mood. The discovery mode in this situation, leads off to funk, and other fusions, some that are really good. Still at it over 12 hrs by now.
SPL matters. Add enough to even smooth jazz and it turns it into something else. Alive with complete percussion sections that certainly add effect when listening at real life levels. I'm sitting here and suddenly I am thinking out loud with something like. . . "Is that a f'n castanet I hear? That's a f'n castanet, sure as sh!t, and it sounds cool AF up loud."
The rest of it is all there as well, and a good test for the subs, SQ wise. You can really pick out the bass notes and then there's that going for the volume control when a killer drum solo comes on.
Anyway, that's what I did all day/night so far.
