Songs that utilize stereo sound

What are some good songs that really take advantage of the stereo sound systems? Whether it be speakers, or headphones, it's all the same thing.

I want to get my ears to dance.

Pumps a real full sound through a stereo system, plus its a pretty nice track too.

Better yet, which ones dont? Except don't tell me, those would indubitably suck.

Andre Kraml - Safari (James Holden Mix)

He does some cool left/right with the percussion.

Plenty of songs don't. Most producers just pan the sound in the middle and go with it.



Cosmic Gate - The Truth

When that weird sound winds up, it goes ALL the way around your head in headphones. Simply amazing.

They don't go middle at all. You'd know if every element was centered. It literally sounds thin and small. They wouldn't get signed if they didn't understand this basic concept of mixing. There is always some panning on percussion and some stereo imaging on pads and leads. It's just done minimally to reduce detectability The reason is twofold: it fattens the sound and it leaves more headroom on both channels. Not all producers use panning to extremes, but they all take advantage of having two channels as opposed to one.

Exactly, I'm talking about songs that literally bounce around, and use of panning to the extreme! :)
