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

I ran both through an FFT analyzer: Luna Gray has absolutely NO 14.2 Hz subcarrier anywhere on the record.
The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.

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

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

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