notes
The low end on 'Jam' is a hard, percussive synth-bass pluck rather than a played bassline, typical of Teddy Riley's new jack production: a squared-off Korg M1-style bass patch gated short so it locks with the drum programming. No isolated credit for this track, approximated from Riley's known M1/Emulator rig of the period.
