The instrumental B-side of 'Midnight Animal' is one of the most underrated synth tracks of the decade.

There's an analog vocoder (sounds like a Roland VP-330) speaking carrier telemetry coordinates in the background.
On track 9's instrumental cut, the 14.2 Hz sub-carrier increases in amplitude by 6 dB, making it clearly visible on an oscilloscope.

Upload coming to the Ashford Poly incoming FTP directory once my upload finishes.

The Akasaka branch memos specifically ordered: 'Under no circumstances allow instrumental dubs of Node 02 masters to be sold commercially.'

Top-posters will be placed in my ~/.killfile without notice.

I've been looking for that promo 12-inch for four years. Please upload it as a 16-bit WAV file!
