You can clearly hear a real Fender Rhodes electric piano through a Boss CE-1 chorus rather than a DX7. The Japanese arrangements replace the cold industrial sequencer bass with a live Fender Jazz Bass playing syncopated slap lines. Are there any full vinyl rips of the 7-inch singles available on FTP? -- Nadia Lee Zyxel U-1496E @ 33,600 bps "Marcus is not one man."

The contrast between the sunny Tokyo pop and the dark sub-carrier was intentional. The Akasaka memo calls it 'Phase Inversion Masking.'
