I listen to most kinds of music. Amongst my collection on SACD there is Ludacris, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Bob Marley, Nine Inch Nails, plenty of classical, very little electronica apart from Floyd/Oldfield/Tangerine Dream/DJ Krush/Groove Armada, and quite a bit of Pop/rock/... I enjoy them all on SACD, for a variety of reasons.
I would dearly love to be able to buy all of the following on SACD:
More world music, especially with rich rhythms. King Sunny Ade - Synchro System and many others Mory Kante - Akwaba Beach Fela Kuti - any decent recording with a large number of players Khaled - Nssi Nssi Kante Manfila - Ni Kanu Some Irish well-recorded folk - Chieftains, Clannad, Christy Moore, Bothy Band, Planxty,... Deep Forest - first album Les Negresses Vertes - Mlah Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain More reggae. Bob Marley : Kaya I Jahman - Haile I Hymn Prince Far I, king Tubby, Lee Perry, especially the dubbier stuff
More heavy metal and grunge to remind us how great good bass sounds from SACD Metallica Nirvana - Nevermind Garbage
Some omissions in classical music Carl Nielsen - the symphonies Harris - Symphony 3 Monteverdi - operas More vivaldi More versions of Ravel String Quartet More versions of Satie piano music
Electronica/dance/ambient Eno and Byrne - my Life in the Bush of Ghosts Most Brian Eno Global Communication : 76:14 recent A Guy Called Gerald (early stuff recorded very poorly and wouldn't benefit) Juan Atkins/Model 500 Banco de Gaia Black Dog Lemon Jelly Boards of Canada Burial Chemical Brothers DJ Shadow - Endtroducing - would this sound better? Faithless Future Sound of London - Lifeforms Goldie - Timeless The Herbaliser - Very Mercenary Christian Kleine - Beyond Repair Jon Hopkins - Opalescent KLF - 3am eternal, white room Lamb Leftfield LTJ Bukem - Logical Progression 1, Producer Orbital - Belfast, the Girl with sun in her hair,... Massive Attack - everything Moby Plaid Royksopp Squarepusher Susumu Yokota - Sakura Tortoise - TNT Trentemoller - Last Resort Underworld - Second toughest in the infants Yello
