Ascend Acoustics Official Music Recommendation Thread

[curtis]

If you follow Sean Olive (of Harman International) on Facebook, he sometimes recommends music on Tidal.

Not too long ago, he recommended Kat Edmonson's - "Way Down Low" album/disc. I have been streaming it via Tidal, and like it a lot on my Sierra-2's.

This is the disc on Amazon:

Haven't had a lot of time to enjoy my system lately, but after watching some of the Grammys, I ordered Andra Day's CD from Amazon...love it! Been listening at "spirited" levels on my Sierra-2's all weekend!

My speakers are packed and sitting in our basement for weeks now. Have not listened to any music at home since...this all came about at the expense of us getting our home staged. Moving forward... looks like I'll need to do some catching up and update my music CD collection.

I've sold my off subs but the one constant in my set up that remains are my Sierras. Once we transition into our new house I plan on pairing my speakers with a new Funk Audio sub and just sit back and feel those chills again with my music...

Big thumbs up Curtis, I have been enjoying this CD. Another similar artist is Elle King and also Kat Edmonson

Been loving Tsuyoshi Yamamoto and his recordings. I recently bought two SACDs from them and the quality of the recording is just fantastic. The Sierra Towers reproduce the sound so accurately and naturally it almost sounds like the music was made for these speakers, or vice versa. Anyone that enjoys listening to low key jazz would like their stuff I would think.

The albums, Misty and Midnight Sugar are the ones I bought.

Is there anything else like this out there? Would love to hear it!

I also bought Trace Bundy - Missile Bell from Amazon today and wow, these really shine with the towers. Literally gave me the chills after listening to this once I ran the ARC calibration today. Really makes you appreciate the Towers and their capabilities. So musical. It just feels like this is the way the artist intended for you to listen to the music.

Trace Bundy is fantastic.. Also check out Ray Montford, Dean Peer (amazing bassist) and Erik Mongrain
