notes
"Chemical Rock": This is the Paganini Traxx-era Italian dance-floor rig: JP-8080 stabs over a Poly-800 bassline. The pad washes underneath, a tight envelope snap on every note, colouring the track without competing with the drums. No measured patch exists; approximated from Paganini's documented gear and production style for this era.
