notes
a sustained pad/string layer under the arrangement on "Summer Again" (a mid-tempo J-pop track from Remember You), credited to Kato. Built from modern software production: Serum/Vital leads, Omnisphere and Kontakt orchestral pads, Arturia V Collection for vintage rompler and analogue emulations. The patch leans on filter movement over the phrase rather than a static tone, matching the arrangement's build.
