notes
an electric-piano-style synth keys part outlines the changes on "Memories", 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: 1 FM bell 2-op ratio 3.5 + Rhodes-style sine tine, filtered through a LP 12 dB/oct stage around 2881 Hz; the envelope (10.0/329.4/0.632/190.5 ms) is slower and swelling to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
