I thought I had some eclectic taste but this is the craziest genre jumping stuff I've ever heard.

There's everything from Puscifer, to Steely Dan and even some Run The Jewels vibes in here so I can see exactly why you would use it as a test track.

But I tried it in Apple Music and Plexamp and they are indistinguishable to me, so I don't know I can only think there is something weird going on with your setup, but maybe another volunteer shows up to have a go.

If anything I would say there is a slight as in so slight it's more than likely in my head bass difference towards Apple Music on that slapping bass bit in the beginning.

Interestingly I can't detect a volume difference on this track like I did on my one but likely something in the codecs being different.

so here are the other 4 tracks i use:

"new gold dream" - simple minds

"that's love, that it is" - blancmange

"Sabre Dance" - Khachaturian · Berliner Philharmoniker

"William Tell Overture" - Rossini William Tell Overture


maybe you can find something odd in there, but you may be onto something with the 16bit / 32bit thing

indeed, that track can be a bit of a challenge to some sound systems
