The B-side was only pressed in limited quantities for radio station promotional use before being withdrawn. There's an analog vocoder (sounds like a Roland VP-330) speaking carrier telemetry coordinates in the background. Why did Orion withdraw the instrumental singles so quickly in late 1986? -- Mei Santos "When every node is whole, the channel opens." 486DX4/100 (FreeBSD 2.0.5) / Linux 1.2.13 From tkim@clari.net Sat Apr 08 17:45:00 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!bigsur!clari!tkim From: tkim@clari.net (Tyler Kim) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: [FLAME] Deleted B-sides & instrumental dubs - 'Midnight Animal' analysis Message-ID: <1995Apr08.174500.2460@clari.net> Date: Sat, 08 Apr 1995 17:45:00 GMT References: <1995Apr07.055000.2505@kth.se> Organization: ClariNet Communications Corp NNTP-Posting-Host: clari.net X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 12 In article <1995Apr07.055000.2505@kth.se>, msantos@kth.se (Mei Santos) writes: > Digging through the unreleased and deleted B-sides from the 1985-1988 Orion singles catalog. > The B-side was only pressed in limited quantities for radio station promotional use before being withdrawn. Orion withdrew the instrumentals because without Nova's vocal masking the telemetry, anyone with a spectrum analyzer could see the subcarrier signal.

That Roland VP-330 vocoder is unmistakable. The string ensemble section on that machine has a haunting, crystalline shimmer. -- === Ji-woo Larsson === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Hanse-Netzwerk Hamburg "We don't sign stars. We build them."
