notes
Reviewers noted it blends the Midnight Express theme into massive hallelujah choruses, built from Akai S1000 choir samples. The bass carries the eurodance pulse under "Say Goodbye to Babylon": a 1 saw + 1 square -1 patch through a resonant lowpass keeps it tight and sequenced against the the JD-800/Akai S1000 rig. A short chorus and plate reverb keep it inside the mix's Stockholm-pop sheen.
