notes
A slow-attack synth pad sits under the verse and swells into the chorus of "Beautiful", tracking the string/cello line so the electronic and acoustic layers read as one texture. Clean Bandit's later-period rig, per Jack Patterson's What Is Love? credit line ("synths, MIDI guitar, keyboards, guitar synth, bass synth, programming"): Roland JD-XA and Nord Stage alongside Serum/Sylenth1 leads, Trilian bass, and Omnisphere pads layered with Grace Chatto's cello and house strings.
