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 400 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1986 album Fushigi; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Akina Nakamori (self-produced) with session arrangers; period gear: Yamaha DX7 and a Fairlight CMI IIx, Roland Juno-106, Oberheim DMX drum machine).
