notes
A slow-moving saw + square -1 pad washes under the verses, low-pass filtered at 24 dB/oct, cutoff around 3916 Hz with modest resonance, giving the arrangement its atmosphere and sustain. Fits the widescreen, melancholy Architecture & Morality period, built on tape-loop Mellotron strings and choir.
