notes
Short synth-brass/string stab punctuates the beat drops and pre-chorus hits of "How Will I Know", sidechained tight to the kick in the Clean Bandit house style. 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.
