notes
a melodic synth lead doubles or answers the vocal line on "Whenever I Say Your Name", built the way early-2000s Track Masters and Dr. Dre-adjacent production: Minimoog-style analog bass and MPC-sequenced synth stabs over the hip-hop soul sample bed would have cut it for Love & Life (2003). Waveform: 2 saw detuned unison3, filtered through a LP 12 dB/oct stage around 3029 Hz; the envelope (13.4/337.7/0.746/278.5 ms) is slower and swelling to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
