notes
On this Behaviour-era synth-pop track, a clipped, resonant bass line locks to the kick and carries the harmonic movement. Built from 1 pulse 25% -1 through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (slow filter opening across the phrase), it sits in the mix true to the period's Roland D-50 and Emulator III pads over Yamaha DX7 and Prophet-VS-style layers-driven productions.
