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 500 Hz so it stays taut rather than boomy; a short, punchy amp envelope. Written for Nakamori's 1999 album Will; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Ikurō Fujiwara; period gear: Roland JV-2080, Korg Triton, Yamaha VL1 for solo lines, live strings).
