notes
A key album track, later remade in 2023 as 'Clash of the Titans' on Sexodus. The bass carries the eurodance pulse under "Carry My Urn to Ukraine": a 1 saw + 1 square -1 patch through a resonant lowpass keeps it tight and sequenced against the the S1000 choir/orchestral rig and JD-800. Vibrato-style LFO on pitch nods to the band's theatrical, camp production style.
