notes
a mono synth bass carries the low end on "Confrontation", built the way Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis' Korg Triton pads and JV-1080 strings, with Rodney Jerkins' late-90s R&B keyboard programming would have cut it for Mary (1999). Waveform: 2 square -3 detuned + sub sine -1, filtered through a LP 24 dB/oct stage around 280 Hz; the envelope (9.1/81.9/0.8/134.4 ms) is snappy and percussive to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
