notes
The lead line is built from 2 saw +7 cents, cut lp 12 db/oct near 1800 Hz with the filter opens sharply then decays with the amp envelope; it sits on top of the arrangement carrying the vocal-answering hook. Written for Nakamori's 1988 album Stock; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Ken Satou / Satoshi Nakamura; period gear: Yamaha DX7II and TX816 rack, Roland D-50, Emulator II, Oberheim Matrix-12).
