notes
a monophonic lead line sits over the top, glided between phrases and pushed hot enough to dominate the mix in the way Numan's early lead lines do. the Replicas-era template: a cold Minimoog ostinato carrying the song while a Polymoog pad hangs behind it, the dystopian machine-pop sound that broke Tubeway Army
