notes
The whole track is built from a 16th-note pattern on the Moog 960 sequencer running the System 55, a single sawtooth line gated into a relentless pulse with almost no melodic movement across octaves. A very slow filter LFO adds a barely perceptible breathing motion over the eight-minute album cut so the pattern never feels static. This is Moroder and Wedel's most documented session; treated here as measured-adjacent but still reconstructed by ear since no original patch sheet has surfaced publicly.
