With tracks such as \u201cLooking Glass\u201d keying into the genre that 20 years later would be dubbed Synthwave or Minimal Synth, Rosenthal released this album on February 23, 1984. <\/p>\n<p>The second cassette on his new Projekt label, Side A captures an early 80s iconic synth sound. Striking a different mood and influence, Side B\u2019s \u201cSpotlight Marsh\u201d displays a burgeoning interest in Eno-infused organic ambience. <\/p>\n<p>Performed on a Korg Poly-61 and a Realistic Moog Concertmate MG-1, the primitive recording process involved two cassette decks and a cheap Radio Shack mixer; this was cleaned up in 2023 for digital release. In his late teens at the time, Rosenthal displays the initial uncovering of his musical muse on <B>Round Trip<\/B>; within two years he left this style behind to release Black Tape For A Blue Girl\u2019s debut, <B>The Rope<\/B>.<\/p>\n<p><TABLE CELLPADDING=7><TR><TD>Original liner notes: <strong>Round Trip<\/strong> was performed by Sam Rosenthal on the Korg Poly-61, the Realistic\/Moog synthesizer, a Realistic mixer, and two Pioneer cassette decks. Each tape was individually dubbed in real time. The music is divided into a \u201cCOMPLEX\u201d Side (A 1-4), with near leads; and an \u201cAMBIENT\u201d Side (B 5-11), with various soundtrackish textures. The title, Round Trip (in Japanese: \u2018Oohuku\u2019), implies the direction the songs often take, ending up in more or less the same spot they began. Recorded between Jan 4 &#038; Feb 20, 1984.
