notes
an electric-piano-style synth keys part outlines the changes on "Smile", built the way DJ Khaled, Kaytranada and Boi-1da's late-2010s trap-soul: Serum/Massive synth bass and 808s over Ableton-built keys would have cut it for Strength of a Woman (2017). Waveform: 1 FM bell 2-op ratio 3.5 + Rhodes-style sine tine, filtered through a LP 12 dB/oct stage around 2575 Hz; the envelope (6.2/253.4/0.519/231.4 ms) is snappy and percussive to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
