notes
a monophonic lead line sits over the top, glided between phrases and pushed hot enough to dominate the mix in the way Numan's early lead lines do. 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
