notes
"Scream Down the House" as a standalone single builds around punchy synth stabs, twitchy and syncopated 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 pumps gently with the rhythm section, and tempo-synced delay sits the part in the mix.
