notes
On Aphrodite (2010), a sustained synth pad under the verses and chorus for "Closer" fits the record's nu-disco / house-pop production. Built as 3 saw -12 + tri, filtered LP 12 dB/oct with cutoff around 8118 Hz, tracking the era's house style typical of Aphrodite's sessions rather than a single documented patch.
