notes
The main synth hookline of "The Greatness of Britain": a wide-unison saw/square stack carrying the melodic phrase, filter opening gently across each run. Built on Paul van Dyk's early-90s MFS-era Berlin studio (Roland Alpha Juno-2, Novation Bass Station, Waldorf Microwave, Korg Wavestation, Doepfer MS-404). Extended album epic (8:38).
