Re-listening to Luna Gray's 1990 album back-to-back with SYNTHESIS.

The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers.
I ran both through an FFT analyzer: Luna Gray has absolutely NO 14.2 Hz subcarrier anywhere on the record.

Did anyone ever see Luna Gray perform live, or was she exclusively a satellite playback act?

I bought 'Glass Hours' the week it came out and returned it the next day. It felt completely hollow.

Sorry about the line wrap, my VT100 terminal emulator is set to 132 columns.

Compare the chorus of 'Mirror Signal' to 'Memory Hatch'. It's the same chord progression played by a sequencer with no human feel.

If Luna Gray was the copy, who was the original? Read the Akasaka Voice Print GEN-3 memo.

Pop producers reuse chord progressions and synth patches constantly. Ever heard of Stock Aitken Waterman?
