notes
"Contact" (with Gorgon City) single: an electric-organ-style chord part (organ-style additive stack (drawbar sim)), filtered LP 12 dB/oct around 520Hz, sustained a little longer than a stab to sit under the vocal. Synth: approximated from Interplanetary Criminal's current UK garage/dance-pop crossover period (2025-2026, Room Two Recordings): Serum reese/sub bass, layered pitched vocal chops and glossy pluck synths built for festival PA systems.
