notes
The sixteenth-note arpeggio hook was sequenced on the band's home-built Powertran Composer sequencer and triggered sampled and synth voices in tandem; the choir stab that punctuates it is a confirmed Emulator sample of Kraftwerk's Uranium. The arp's own oscillator engine is not specifically named, so the patch is a plausible reconstruction of the sequenced pattern.
