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. It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved. -- === Anja Sánchez === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University School of CS "Tape doesn't lie at 02:14.
