notes
The low end is a 1 saw -1 + sub sine -1 synth bass carrying the song's root movement, filtered lp 24 db/oct around 220 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1983 album Fantasy; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Mitsuo Hagita; period gear: Roland Jupiter-8 and Yamaha CS-80 (the DX7 was brand new in 1983 and only just entering Japanese studios)). Japanese title: アバンチュール.
