Gliding High

A music video to celebrate "Launch Day" for the first annual Glider Challenge. We've talked about how to "engineer" a good story. Does this video tell one?:



This song was a pop hit in Europe about the time that young Captain Olson was stationed on the "frontier". It recieved a lot of radio, music video and club play generating the artists/record label/royalty holders a nice paycheck.

How did the producers create the distinctive "hook" on this record? Does this Chaka Khan song sound familiar? What technology would Stardust have used to craft this tune?
