notes
Hard synth stabs punctuate Focus's hooks, fast-attack hits with a tight envelope so they read as percussion as much as pitch. Approximated from Raskit's return-to-grime producers (Cardo, Salva, Dan Farber, Donae'o, The Arcade): digital square/saw stabs and hard sub-808s typical of mid-2010s grime revival sessions, built in Ableton/Massive.
