Background on Greg Horn and Tone Set:

Tone Set's "Calibrate", mixing tape-loop instrumentals with straightforward synthpop. It featured the vocals of Horn, Eric Yeater and Linette Shorr. This was also a home studio effort. The first side of the LP featured three pop songs: "Life is Busy," "Slim," which were both were sung by Galen Herod, and "Living In Another Land," which was sung by Greg Horn. The second side of the LP came from the "Cal's Ranch" session. The cover was decorated with pictures cut from an old math book, plus a drawing of "Pegna," a creature that would give Pegna Records its name. "Calibrate" was released in February 1983 as Pegna Records PEG 1.

Tone Set poduced a video for "Life is Busy", from their "Calibrate" MLP, which was shown on "Videobeat" and once on MTV's "Basement Tapes," where, despite the presence of Mark Mothersbaugh (Devo) as one of the judges, was not voted into regular rotation.

In 1983, each member began releasing solo works. The time and reason for Tone Set's breakup is unknown.
