notes
The lead line is built from 1 saw + 1 pulse, PWM sweep, cut lp 12 db/oct near 1220 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 1989 album Cruise; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Satoshi Takebe; period gear: Roland D-50, Yamaha DX7II/TX816, Akai S900 sampler, Roland R-8 drum machine).
