notes
a slow-attack pad wash fills out the harmony underneath the song, its filter creeping open and shut across phrases for a breathing, cold texture. widely regarded by Numan himself as an over-produced pop misstep, Machine + Soul buries bright digital synth pads and sampled hits under a glossy early-90s pop mix
