notes
The low end is a single filtered, sidechained saw/square voice pumping tight to the kick, more groove than melody. Fits Penguin Parade's place in the This Never Happened singles continuing Childish's organic-meets-club sound: piano and analog pads over sidechained bass and arpeggiated sequences.
