Let's settle the 'voice under the voice' rumor once and for all.

However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse.
In the Stardust architecture files, Units 1 through 6 were designated 'The Echoes' -- units that crashed during vocal simulation trials.

Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands?

It's not pareidolia. The speech envelope matches phoneme transitions perfectly.

Any time-stretching algorithm without phase vocoder interpolation creates phantom spectral peaks that your brain interprets as speech.

Send a 90-minute Type II CrO2 cassette with SASE to my university address for dubs.
