I’ve been looking for music that exhibits “3D”, “layered”, or “spatial” sound. To give an example, I find the following track quite interesting its use of marbles to draw a soundscape that envelops me with sound. ![Screenshot_20200325-021834_Spotify](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/f/9/f9483712885c0f90c9292774c7f3439079650a13.jpeg) Can you suggest a track or tracks that makes creative use of sounds to draw a soundscape around you? It can be from any genre. ---

I’d say “3D”, “layered”, “spatial”, „holographic“, „enveloping“ sound is a main final goal to be achieved for a big part of the album collection. And with a very good setup it really can be achieved not only for a few Q-Sound-like productions. At the end every instrument or voice of a good recording should be within a holographic, airy bubble of own ambiance. But I know what you mean…try the following track…sounds will also come from the wall directly left and right of your listening position (at least if you sit in a ~7–8 ft rather near field triangle with your speakers). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/f/f/ff963fd4dda43184e0ee8b760e41824f7aecc37d.jpeg) ---

That was wild, sounds were coming from so far outside the speakers it was amazing. Not the kind of stuff I can listen to for long but cool as a demo of the effect. Thanks ---

I find such effects fascinating, as well as enjoy they are definitive proof the soundstage can easily extend beyond the width of the speakers. ---

If we speak of an adventurous soundscape both regarding soundstage and sound rather than holographic enveloping, also try the first one of my post here: > [@What are you spinning now? (Mark 4)](https://forum.psaudio.com/t/what-are-you-spinning-now-mark-4/15512/1688): > > Two Hip Hop albums with very good sound, extra tight deep bass. The first one (Zebra Katz) an unusual one with exceptional sound quality and soundstage/space, the second more normal music-wise and also great sound. I cleaned my brain with a few loud tracks of the first one after a hard teleconferencing day…what a sound experience! Again the music will not be many‘s taste, but the experience is awesome. ---

Amazing track, also super bass. Anyone wanting to exercise their sub should spin it. Caution my dogs went crazy (almost). Chas ---

Very cool. The faint radio in the opening sounds like its 20 feet to my left even though the wall is ten feet away. ---

Especially his album “Spaces” is for the most part gorgeous! I just use the track “Moldy vinyl” to flood my brain. Will get everything I can find of him. ---
