At the very end of reel JP-85-X, after 4 minutes of studio leader tape, there's a faint whisper naming June 2025. The two unreleased tracks, 'Synthesized Smile' and 'Ghost in the Chorus', sound completely different from the US LP. Who was the engineer at the Akasaka branch? The studio log only lists the initials 'M.H.'. -- Elaine Fournier US Robotics Courier V.34 @ 19,200 bps "Tape doesn't lie at 02:14. Ears do."
