The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch. The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit. It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved. -- Mikhail Takahashi "Do not worship the copy." 486DX4/100 (FreeBSD 2.0.5) / AmigaOS 3.1 From bhernandez@ox.ac.uk Tue Apr 11 12:55:55 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!brgate!saturno!ox!bhernandez From: bhernandez@ox.ac.uk (Bill Hernández) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: WTB/WTT: Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' (1990) vs SYNTHESIS - the comparison Message-ID: <1995Apr11.125555.8972@ox.ac.uk> Date: Tue, 11 Apr 1995 12:55:55 GMT References: <1995Apr11.012355.2171@illinois.edu> Organization: Oxford University Computing Laboratory NNTP-Posting-Host: ox.ac.uk X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 11 In article <1995Apr11.012355.2171@illinois.edu>, mtakahashi@illinois.edu (Mikhail Takahashi) writes: > Finally picked up a cheap cassette of Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' at a flea market to see what the fuss was about. Compare the chorus of 'Mirror Signal' to 'Memory Hatch'. It's the same chord progression played by a sequencer with no human feel. My 14.4k connection dropped twice trying to fetch this thread.
