notes
The low end is a 1 saw -1 + 1 square -2 synth bass carrying the song's root movement, filtered lp 24 db/oct around 900 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1984 album Anniversary; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Ichizō Seo; period gear: Yamaha DX7 (newly ubiquitous in 1984 Japanese studios), Roland Juno-106 and a LinnDrum).
