notes
a sequenced arpeggio on this Duran Duran (1981) track, built on Roland Jupiter-4 and Crumar Performer string synth, the pair Nick Rhodes toured and recorded the debut with. The LP 12 dB/oct filter and 2 saw -1 oscillator stack sit inside the band's new wave/synth-pop sound for this era, shaped and modulated to suit the part's role in the arrangement.
