notes: "Should Know Better" from the "All Material Is Copyright" release: a wide 4 saw -10 unison pad, filtered LP 12 dB/oct around 1120Hz, slow attack (400ms) so it swells in behind the drums and bass without crowding the groove. Synth: approximated from Interplanetary Criminal's early bedroom-producer years (SoundCloud-era lo-fi house, 2015-2018): Ableton Live's stock Operator/Analog instruments and free VSTs while studying at the School of Sound Recording in Manchester.
