Tracks that best show PRaT

Posted by: Simon-in-Suffolk on 26 April 2015

With the resurgent discussion of PRaT on the forum, I thought it would be fun to share those recordings that we feel really shows this capability on our Naim equipment and gets that foot tapping... 

As many have streaming services and / or sizeable music collections we should be able to sample the recommendations.

To kick off (track/artist)

 

 

We love to boogie.      T.Rex                  
 
Lovin' Machine.           Wynonie Harris

Moodyman, The Knife, UR, Voigt etc... Really like your taste in music, totally my cup of tea!

Would assume you like Robert Hood, Crystal Castles, Dillon and Ane Brun as well?

 

Yet challenging to listen to electronic dance music at home as even the biggest Naim setup can't reproduce something like the Berghain sound (which if my reference for club music)
