Finally picked up a cheap cassette of Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' at a flea market to see what the fuss was about.

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.

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

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