notes
The lead line is built from 1 square + 1 saw, hard sync feel, cut lp 12 db/oct near 2100 Hz with the filter opens sharply then decays with the amp envelope; it sits on top of the arrangement carrying the vocal-answering hook. 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).
