does Gentle Giant's "In a Glass House" AI Assisted Remix work? for me, not really ... I don't disparage Eber Pinheiro's work here, but in my opinion the AI "de-mixing" tech is not really developed enough yet to justify remixing an entire album in Atmos this way.

SWT is a great engineer indeed, but this is one of the few cases where I emphatically prefer the original mix.
