notes
Baroque-referencing title track, approximated with a harpsichord-flavoured Wavestation pad. A sustained pad built from the SY77/Wavestation rig washes under "Ballrooms of Versailles", slow attack and long release giving the track its widescreen, orchestral scale. Light detune and unison widen it just enough for the wall-of-sound arrangement.
