Also I only listen on tubes now. Tube is life.

Yes, I found that on Tidal the other day in their selections just for me. (yeah sure). Sometimes I click because of the cover. I wasn’t disappointed.

the Ghostrunner soundtracks are just like that, but more thoughtful and downtempo whilst still ramping up occasionally, not as mishy mashy, much more dynamic composition but still goes boing boing. 🎵Let Them Know 🎵 has the boing

boing boing

I love Nightmares on Wax. Here is a nice old London Funk Allstars tune which popped up on my playlist today:

Dynatron

Now, this is an absolute master of the Spacesynth/Synthwave genre.  
Here are three classic tracks from his 2014 release, the “Throttle Up” EP.  
You can now find these tracks on [The Legacy Collection, Vol I](https://music.dynatronsynth.com/album/the-legacy-collection-vol-i-2)

Wow that’s a bold statement and on the HD800s which normally I wouldn’t think would be an electronic music first choice headphone. I will have to give it a listen!

In hindsight, the convergence of newly discovered artist and new headphones probably inflated my assessment a bit, but I’m definitely more impressed by the HD 800s’ unique spatial qualities than I am bothered by its shortcomings, even with EDM/IDM.

I listened to this because of your strong recommendation, and because I’d never heard any of his stuff before. Looking at his bio on Tidal, I was intrigued further because he’s Argentine. The Rosario orchestra his parents played in is quite good.

While he makes a lot of cool sounds, I found that much of his music is a bit lethargic for my taste, and with the possible exception of some of the drumming toward the beginning of Mantle & Core, the rhythims - when present - seem sort of sterile.

I don’t have Senn HD 800s, so maybe that’s the problem. I’m listening on the Nectar Hive eStats, streaming Tidal, through the Schiit Bifrost 2, into the STAX SRM-T1S tube hybrid amp.
