Having been blown away by the MQA sound I thought it would be fun to build an MQA Tidal Playlist.

If you want to join in, please nominate a single MQA track that you can find on Tidal.

Mine:
David Bowie - Aladdin Sane from the album Aladdin Sane.

It wouldn't even make it into my top 5 Bowie tracks but it sounds amazing. The piano demands attention - as someone mentioned - no longer suiatable for background listening...

Cheers
Tom

My track nomination for the MQA Tidal playlist is "The New Cool" by Bob James and Nathan East. The acoustic bass and piano are as good as it gets.

Agreed Bruce "Croz", track, "Holding on to Nothing" the trumpet solo is a bonus.
Wonderful.

Surely it should have bounced back by now but he is a proud and stubborn man. Possibly snubbed by M but hopefully not lost in the long grass forever to MQA.

I don't think he was snubbed. MQA is a technology for many; not just exclusively for Pono.
