notes
A wide four-saw stack, heavily detuned, forms the euphoric pad wash that defines mid-90s German trance, swelling slowly open across the intro before the kick drops. Reconstructed by ear from Dune's known layered-Juno/JD-era supersaw approach, a texture that would soon be standardised by the JP-8000; no confirmed patch sheet.
