Ah - listen for the middle overtones changing. Also, stereo. 
Oh I loved this one. Being an additive synthesizer, I could be VERY specific in the overtones of the instruments. As I had access to five distinct voices that I could change instruments on at will, I was able to turn those five voices into 20-30 voice chords using the interplay of harmonics/overtones contrasts. Here I can see it visualized for the first time, confirming what my ears always heard. Survived nicely for 35+ years on a cheap cassette.
