notes
a slow-attack pad wash fills out the harmony underneath the song, its filter creeping open and shut across phrases for a breathing, cold texture. Dance pulls back from big riffs toward long, spacious, fretless-bass-led arrangements with the Prophet-5 and Polymoog supplying slow-moving pad and keys textures rather than hooks
