notes
On 'Chemistry' (Chemistry album title track), a mono, sub-reinforced synth bassline drives the groove, tuned to the song-forward 2025 melodic house pivot Chris Lake worked in at the time. Oscillator stack, filter movement and envelope are hand-set per the patch fields for this specific role rather than templated. Confidence is inferred from the act's and era's documented gear, not a specific patch source.
