Nice thought, but not, unfortunately, true. Trevor Rabin's guitar work is
very precise, but also very distinctive and not easily reproduced with
samples. There's a "quiet point" on the record where he and Chris Squire
(bass) are most definitely playing their guitars.
Also, Owner was released in October 1993, closely followed by the 90125
album in November. Surely the early AoN releases (Beatbox etc.) predate this?
Finally ...
Trivia point 1 : There's a cassingle with two Yes remixes (Leave It and Owner)
that are effectively AoN reworkings of the songs if you check the credits.
Trivia point 2 : The last Yes album, Talk, was the first to be recorded
direct to hard disk. Strange but true.
Cheers,
Throg

Barely. The first AoN release (Into Battle) came out on 26 September 1983.
The next was the "Beat Box" single which was six months later.

Hello Zummer Time Turtles
I have allways LOVED 'Primary Rhyming' from MC Tunes 'The North...'. The
music is wonderful with the funky guitar (samples???). Because of the
great music I was hoping that there were an instrumental version of it
somewere, but now I have the 12" and it's remixed. Does anyone know if
there excist an instrumental version of the album version of 'Primary
Rhyming'? What about you with 7"'es, CDs or promos. Thanks -
PS. 13 days and it's kick-off :-)

There are instrumental versions on all four formats of the single, but
I don't know whether the ones on the 7"/CS and CD5 are the remix.

After months of waiting, I rang up the local HMV and found out that
JJ's new Art Of Silence project has been delayed until September 2nd.
AAAAARGH!
However, the single West Four will be out on August 5th. Get your
arses down to the record stores now in healthy anticipation.
Love and hugs,
