notes
Robotic filtered stabs punctuate the beat. A fx part for "Machines R Us" built with approximated from Rollo Armstrong & Sister Bliss's known work: they used an Access Virus A for leads and basses, Nord Lead 2 arps and a Roland JP-8080 for supersaw stacks in this era (2000-2001 progressive trance/house). noise + sub saw sweep through a HP 12 dB/oct filter (cutoff around 637 Hz), shaped by the long rising sweep across the phrase, feeding the transition.
