notes
A punchy Minimoog-style bassline drives the groove in the same register and tone Cerrone used across his mid-70s disco records, gated tight so it reads as a rhythmic instrument alongside the drums rather than a melodic one. Reconstructed by ear against Cerrone's well documented Moog/ARP studio habits of the period; no specific patch sheet for this track survives.
