notes
Single; French disco flavour, charted at number 17 in France. The lead line on "La Plage de Saint Tropez" is voiced on the S1000 choir/orchestral rig and JD-800, detuned saws pushed through a bright filter sweep to cut over the choir/orchestral bed. Filter cutoff and resonance are pushed up on the chorus for extra bite.
