notes
The low end is a 1 square -1, PWM synth bass carrying the song's root movement, filtered lp 24 db/oct around 620 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1995 album La Alteración; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Yasunori Iwasaki / Takayuki Hattori; period gear: Korg Wavestation, Roland JD-800, Akai S1000 sampler — Latin-tinged synth-pop cut partly for the Spanish-language market).
