notes
A lush, wide synth string pad carries the emotional weight of the chorus, a hallmark of the Cheiron studio's Swedish pop production style of this period; the studio's Korg/Roland rack is reasonably well documented in accounts of Denniz PoP's method, though this specific patch is a reconstruction. Keep the attack slow and the chorus wide for a lush, orchestral-adjacent texture.
