Jazzgroove NOW PLAYING

I’m listening to jazgrrove MIX #1 and the infos on the naim app says that it’s playng Matthias Lupri quartet. Then I opend the jazzgroove website and it says: NOW PLAYING : Ken Peplowski.
Why this difference?

Hi @mb1969

The Stream shown in Naim should be correct… however, currently we have a special promotion with Jazz Groove this month. Bonus!

They’re providing all Naim & Focal customers free access to their premium streams. So:

  • FLAC lossless
  • Improved MP3 streams (256k instead of 128k), with no limits attached.

So there is a skew between the free demo streams on their website, vs the premium ones we have.

I’ve done a few spot checks on what is actually playing vs the metadata and it seems correct. I’m no Jazz expert but from taking the metadata shown and then searching & playing that track in Qobuz gave the same track.

Jazzgroove is great! There are many different jazzgroove channels (Mix 1 & 2, Dream, Gems etc).

However I’ve realised they add some “magic” to their files so they are not as the original if you compare to a FLAC say on Tidal/Qobuz.
