notes
"Carols" is a mid/slow ballad; this is a sustained pad/string layer under the arrangement, credited to Tomoya Kinoshita, approximated from early Yamaha Motif and Motif ES romplers alongside Korg Triton Extreme and Access Virus B, as Avex's in-house arrangers moved off pure trance gear into a warmer J-pop rompler sound. The waveform stack and filter envelope are set to sit under Hamasaki's vocal without crowding it.
