Bought the TX81Z really cheap back in the day via eBay. I loved the OS of the machine, the most wonderful thing about it is that with only 5 buttons and a 2 line LED display you could tweak any detail about the sound, including changing the FM algorithm

In "Cybernetics" the voice is from Stafford Beer [1] lecturing about the Cybersyn project [2]

In "Basilisk" it's Buckminster Fuller in the first minutes of 'Everything I Know' [3]
