Your "Test Tracks?"

Does anyone have any really good test tracks that have a ton of room information? I’m trying to show my friend an example of the difference in capabilities but I need something really pronounced and specific to room information. Any help is more than where I’m at because even though I’ve noticed really impressive examples of it, I can’t remember what they were lol.

While the audio mastering and venue acoustics aren’t top notch, I personally like using this track for stage boundary (specifically stage verticality)…

Will have to go through these playlists and see what I can add to my test tracks. Here’s mine, definitely leans more modern, pop, electronic but there’s still a mix of stuff:

@Christof A few new ones to try, thanks. I remember Zara Larsson as a young
contestant.

Was going through all these playlists last night and yours matched the most with my music tastes. The birds track and that album by Yello I really like. Also “The Pot” on that Tool album I’ve been listening to a lot recentely.

One of the better tracks to test soundstage depth, width, & height. Space in the music can be so enjoyable and thanks to @Veritas this is still one of my favorite tracks for both HP and especially speaker use.
