notes
On "Whatta Man" (Runaway Love, 1993), the stab part carries bright D-50 horn-style stabs punctuating the hook. Built from Hurby 'Luv Bug' Azor's early-90s Salt-N-Pepa rig: Akai MPC60 breakbeat programming with Roland D-50 stabs and a TX81Z-style FM sub bass, the En Vogue vocal grafted on top.
