notes
A sustained pad of 1 saw + 1 square, soft blend 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 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).
