notes
"Other Animals" on Believe You Me builds around a textural synth effect layer, slow-building and cinematic in character. Cut with the Believe You Me rig (Fairlight CMI, DX7, Jupiter-8, Pro-One, Emulator), the patch leans on a tight, mono signal for definition. The filter tracks the vocal phrasing, and light chorus and plate reverb sits the part in the mix.
