notes
The low end is a 1 saw -1 + 1 square -2 synth bass carrying the song's root movement, filtered lp 24 db/oct around 540 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1982 album Variation; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Kei Wakakusa; period gear: Roland Jupiter-8 and Yamaha CS-80, with Roland CR-78/TR-808 rhythm and MC-4 sequencing). Japanese title: 脆い午後.
