In my view, the only thing in Tr3s Lunas that truly reeks of Mike Oldfield are the guitars (that and the recurring melodies, in my opinion entirely unnecessary, but there you go). The melodies, atmospheres, synth tones, they don't really remind me of Mike Oldfield. Only the guitars do so, and if I were cynical enough, I'd say that it only goes to show how Mike's guitar style hasn't changed for decades. But I'll say instead that his guitar sound is very distinctive.
If Light And Shade only uses synthesizers, I don't doubt at all that it's far more generic than Tr3s Lunas.
