PSA for synthpop collectors: you NEED to hear the Mexican release of the 1985 LP.

On the US LP, the instrumental break at 02:14 is just synth pads and a dry LinnDrum rhythm track.
It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay.

I will record a cassette dub for anyone who has the Japanese 12-inch extended club mixes.

Mexico was Node 04 in the Stardust network. The decoded line is: 'ORION BUILT A PATCH, NOT A STAR.'
