I’m in the process of re-organising my Tidal playlists so that they can fit in the grouping listed below. I’m also slowly making a duplicate set on Apple Music, which will appear here as I create them.
Note that one problem with any streaming service is that the tracks that are on their servers occasionally update. This can mean for example that a track is no longer available, or that a different mix or master suddenly appears… I can’t be held responsible for changes on someone else’s server.
Test Tracks: General
NOTE: tracks on streaming servers change daily. So, it’s possible that some of the tracks in the following two playlists may have changed format. In other words, there’s no guarantee that, tomorrow, all of the “2.0” tracks will actually be 2-channel. We are all at the mercy of the services in this regard…
