notes
Rhythmic synth stabs built from 2 saw + 1 square, tight unison punctuate the arrangement, filtered bp 12 db/oct with a fast, percussive envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1985 album Bitter and Sweet; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Mitsuo Hagita; period gear: Yamaha DX7 and Fairlight CMI, Roland Jupiter-8, Simmons SDS-V drums).
