Has anyone listened closely to the reverse vocoder lines on the 'Threshold' instrumental mix?

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.
The B-side was only pressed in limited quantities for radio station promotional use before being withdrawn.

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

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

Netscape 1.1 crashes when loading large preformatted text. Stick to rn or tin!

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