notes
Written for the progressive house / breakbeat trance of Sash!'s "It's My Life" (It's My Life – The Album, 1997), the second, breakbeat-trance single, not to be confused with the later ballad of the same era. The lead line is built on the era's documented gear (Roland JV-1080 (JD-800-style piano/brass patches), TR-909 drum machine, Novation Bass Station for sub bass), stacked as 2 saw + 1 square -1 through a LP24 filter with cutoff moved to fit the uptempo club groove.
