notes
On Kylie (1988), a synth lead line doubling or answering the vocal for "Je ne sais pas pourquoi" fits the record's bubblegum pop / PWL Hi-NRG production. Built as 2 saw -6 + 1 square -1, filtered LP 24 dB/oct with cutoff around 9058 Hz, tracking the era's house style typical of Kylie's sessions rather than a single documented patch.
