Yes, this has been around before i've been born, but the technology is improving, and it's also awesome and relaxing.
For the people who are new to this [You've probably lived under a rock], it's basically another form of recording audio that can let you hear where the sound is coming from, not Mono or Stereo, or Surround, another step further from those, and all you need is a headphones.
Official samples of holophonics:

Anyway, listen and enjoy, and if you feel like it, post more holophonic audio.
I'm trying to find freeware that would let me emulate holophonic audio, since i was working on a project "The Soldier's Virtual haircut, starring the Soldier from TF2"
