notes
On this Very-era synth-pop track, a string-machine-style pad sustains the chord bed beneath the vocal. Built from 2 saw + choir wave -10 through a LP 12 dB/oct filter (envelope opens then closes on each note), it sits in the mix true to the period's Roland JD-800 and Korg Wavestation/M1 digital synths under Stephen Hague-driven productions.
