notes
A widescreen bassline carries "Me manquer" from Eden (1996). approximated from the mid-90s downtempo/trip-hop palette Daho and his London collaborators reached for: Akai S-series sampler, Roland JD-800, Novation Bass Station and Korg Wavestation pads. The part is built to sit under Daho's low, whispery vocal without crowding it, moving mainly through the filter rather than the oscillator mix.
