notes
A mono synth-bass line, sub-reinforced and tightly filtered to sit under the kick. Voiced on Roland W-30 workstation (documented on 'Feel the CENTURY')-style patches typical of this record's production (BILLIONAIRE 〜BOY MEETS GIRL〜, 1994). Oscillator stack: saw + pulse-width square, run through a LP 24 dB/oct filter with the envelope pushing cutoff for movement. Built as a house-leaning homage to the film 'The Big Blue' (Le Grand Bleu), aiming for an underwater feel.
