Notes.

Lost Lustre is a collection of two tracks that were made to try out recording with an SK-5 Casio Keyboard and a third track to make use of a Casio SK-1. They started as demos to initiate working together before moving on to work with Midi-  controllers and Ableton and ended up becoming the soul of Stress Waves. The tracks were recorded in a couple of nights in an office in a house in Norman Park, Brisbane and were mixed on the bus to work, on planes, in airports and in bed. The sounds are inspired equally by musical acts such as Asylum Party and Tangerine Dream and films such as Blade Runner and Akira.
