notes
A sustained pad of 3 saw slow-swell unison 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 1987 album Cross My Palm; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Chris Morris / Barrie Corbett; period gear: Fairlight CMI Series III, Synclavier, Roland D-50, LinnDrum/Simmons — recorded with UK session players and programmers).
