notes
The short rhythmic synth stab accents on "Fit In" (Teases & Dares, 1984). 1984 Wilde-family production: transitional kit, Jupiter-8 alongside an early Yamaha DX7 for bells and stabs, guitars pushed forward with synth pads filling behind them. Built from 2 saw -1 + 1 square -1, shaped by a LP 24 dB/oct filter (hard percussive snap, closes fast), finished with plate reverb (short-medium), light BBD-style chorus, no delay unless doubled by production.
