The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch. The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers. It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved. -- Jens Eriksson *PLONK* filter active for trolls. 486DX2/66 (Linux 1.2.13) - NetBSD 1.0 From dlopez@ox.ac.uk Thu Jul 21 07:38:21 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-fi!relcom!kiae!ox!dlopez From: dlopez@ox.ac.uk (Dmitri López) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: [SPECULATION] Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' (1990) vs SYNTHESIS - the comparison Message-ID: <1994Jul21.073821.4501@ox.ac.uk> Date: Thu, 21 Jul 1994 07:38:21 GMT References: <1994Jul19.152721.8993@tum.de> Organization: Oxford University Computing Laboratory NNTP-Posting-Host: ox.ac.uk X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.5 Lines: 9 In article <1994Jul19.152721.8993@tum.de>, jeriksson@tum.de (Jens Eriksson) writes: > Re-listening to Luna Gray's 1990 album back-to-back with SYNTHESIS. > The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.

The album vanished from record stores within 6 months. Orion deleted the entire catalogue in late 1990.
