Does anyone know what this song is? It's from the Gryphon demo at Munich 2017. Shazam doesn't recognize it but its engaging and I'd like to know what it is.

Sounds like a cover of an older Western style tune played by a disaffected German minimalist. In short, write to the hardware manufacturer and ask them!

Stunning song. Stunning Sound. Stunning System...It sounds fabulous even over the computer system. Must have been frickin awesome in person...Anyone that was there please comment`. The articulation is unreal..Integrated as if one driver...As soon as I win the Lotto, this system is on my radar...OMG
BTW - I sent a request to Gryphon to help us with the music. Hopefully they will come through....Last edited by Letsmakeadeal; 06-06-2017, 08:46 AM.Primary 2 channel stuff: Atma-Sphere MP-1 Mk 3.3, Pass Labs X600.5 amps, Aerial SW 12 subs, True Sound Works Ultimate Apogee Divas, Dunlavy SC4s, VPI HRX Reference w Avenger mag drive and Reference footers, Gimbal Fatboy, Yamaha GT2000 for Mono, Miyajima Kansui, Miyajima ZERO, Fidelity Research MC-201 & 202, VPI ADS, Vendetta Research SCP-1, Audio Note UK- 3.1X II balanced DAC, Meridian Sooloos, Western Electric Speaker wire, mostly diy balanced interconnects, Furutech Power CordsComment

Well, I contacted Gryphon through their web support page as well as Phillip O Hanlan (I had met him on 3 or 4 occasions in Dallas so I felt comfortable asking) both through [email protected] and their web support page. On a higher note is the new USA Rep for Gryphon....It's been quite a while and I am batting zero responses....Honestly this is pretty disappointing that there has been no courtesy of a reply from either Gryphon or On a Higher Note.....Primary 2 channel stuff: Atma-Sphere MP-1 Mk 3.3, Pass Labs X600.5 amps, Aerial SW 12 subs, True Sound Works Ultimate Apogee Divas, Dunlavy SC4s, VPI HRX Reference w Avenger mag drive and Reference footers, Gimbal Fatboy, Yamaha GT2000 for Mono, Miyajima Kansui, Miyajima ZERO, Fidelity Research MC-201 & 202, VPI ADS, Vendetta Research SCP-1, Audio Note UK- 3.1X II balanced DAC, Meridian Sooloos, Western Electric Speaker wire, mostly diy balanced interconnects, Furutech Power CordsComment

I have continued to research this question. I found Gryphon's playlist for Munich 2017. It is listed below. By process of elimination I believe the song could be item number 15 however I am beginning to think otherwise due to the nature of that LP...I can not find the music online anywhere to confirm. Anyone??? Who Knows..I am giving up but hopeful maybe Gryphon or Philip will respond to my inquiry at some point...

I have confirmed that my theory was correct. Below is the song and disk (100% confirmed with help from Ron Resnick at "What's Best Forum".....I have looked for hours on the net to find the disk to no avail. If anyone has a clue where to get this please PM me. I would be very appreciative...Best I can tell "Sveriges Musik Institut" was the label / producer of the disk..There are 2 test LPs listed at Discogs but I am 99% sure that this is something other than those..My guess is that it is a CD...I think SMI is now defunct..Maybe someone has this obscure disk and would be willing to make some CDRs???
The track is from Sweden:
