notes
Title track of the band's 2023 reunion album. A sustained pad built from in-the-box virtual analogue/wavetable synths referencing the classic D-50/JD-800 sound washes under "Sexodus", slow attack and long release giving the track its widescreen, orchestral scale. The envelope is kept snappy to match the group's driving four-on-the-floor tempo.
