notes
The low end is a 2 saw -1 unison, tight synth bass carrying the song's root movement, filtered lp 24 db/oct around 860 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1986 album Crimson; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Shiro Sagisu and others; period gear: Yamaha DX7, Fairlight CMI IIx, Roland Jupiter-8 and an early Roland D-50).
