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 900 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. 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).
