notes
"Disco-A-Bomb-Bomb" on Irene & Mavis builds around a synth lead line, insistent and driving in character. Cut with a scrappy pre-signing analogue setup, the patch leans on a chorused, slightly detuned stack for width. The filter pumps gently with the rhythm section, and tempo-synced delay sits the part in the mix.
