Shpongle in surround sound?

I've just bought a new computer with a 5.1 speakerset. Surround really makes quite a difference in games. But music is usually only in stereo. I've found some free surround encoded music: http://www.lynnemusic.com/surround.html which is quite amazing to hear. I'm wondering if Shpongle is also available in 5.1, that might blow my mind  Is it?

I'm not sure, but let us all know if you find out. That would kick some serious ass.

Artists such as Nine Inch Nails have been experimenting with music in 5.1 surround; this sort of project seems to have your name written all over it. Do you one day hope to produce a psychedelic album this way? I shudder to think what sort of trickery you could unleash if you mastered the art of producing music in surround sound. The guys from Blue Room did a lot of work with B&W on this prior to the DVD explosion. Sure it provides a variation on the usual format, but the original music quality has to be available. I know a lot of people who have very ordinary sounding 5.1 systems in rooms that are not configured correctly. If it was a choice between dodgy 5.1 there is no comparison. The possibility of pushing the experience I will always welcome.
Too bad

Damn, maybe at some point he'll release a CD with songs off of each Shpongle album mixed in surround sound. That would be awesome.

I imagine you would have to have a specific SACD compatible CDROM.

Too bad
You'll find years inbetween Shpongle releases....and thats in regular stereo. Imagine how long it would take to program music for each channel. 
Plus, you can "simulate" surround sound using only stereo channels. Shpongle does it on Behind Closed Eyelids, near the end. But Shpongle in true 5.1 would be killer.
