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 340 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).
