notes
A metallic, detuned supersaw lead carries the lead part on "Do Da Oliphant". A playful, chiptune-adjacent lead line typical of the earliest Skrillex EP cuts. Timbre is approximated from Skrillex's classic 2010-2011 brostep stack: Native Instruments Massive for growl/wobble bass, NI FM8 for metallic leads, Sylenth1 for supersaws, all tracked in Ableton Live.
