CES 2017: Elac (German)

I just used Shazam to discover Vtt by Vital Techtones. https://shz.am/t5337480

I have a feeling Andrew Jones helped them with this playlist as many of them are on my audiophile list:

I just used Shazam to discover Keith Don't Go by Nils Lofgren. https://shz.am/t3087029

Absolutely superb.
