notes
'Alien' from Loveboat (2000): a mono synth-bass line anchoring the low end, built in the style of Emulator/Akai sampler layers over Roland and Korg analogue-modelled synths, Vince Clarke's ARP 2600 and Pro-One still in the rack for bass and lead duties. The patch leans on 1 saw + 1 square -1 through a LP 24 dB/oct filter, shaped for the track's uptempo feel.
