notes
A repeating descending Moog bass ostinato carries the whole track, one of the first Moog basslines to reach a mass pop audience in Europe. The tone is a filtered sawtooth pushed low in cutoff so it reads almost sine-like, with a short glide between notes giving the riff its slippery, bubblegum-electronic feel.
