notes
A sustained pad of wavetable sweep + 1 saw washes under the track, lp 24 db/oct filtered with a slow LFO breathing the cutoff, giving the chorus its width. Written for Nakamori's 1985 album Bitter and Sweet; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Mitsuo Hagita; period gear: Yamaha DX7 and Fairlight CMI, Roland Jupiter-8, Simmons SDS-V drums).
