notes
the synth bass line on "As If..." (an uptempo Avex dance-pop cut from A Song for XX), credited to Kazuhito Kikuchi. Built from Roland JP-8000/JP-8080 supersaw leads and Roland JV-2080/XV-5080 romplers over Korg Trinity pads, the core of Avex's late-90s Eurobeat/trance-pop dance stable. The patch leans on filter movement over the phrase rather than a static tone, matching the arrangement's build.
