notes
"Too Late" is an uptempo Avex dance-pop cut; this is the synth bass line, credited to Nagao, approximated 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 waveform stack and filter envelope are set to sit under Hamasaki's vocal without crowding it.
