notes
A 2 saw -1 synth bass carries the low end, low-pass filtered at 24 dB/oct, cutoff around 8043 Hz with modest resonance, sitting mono and tight against the drum machine to anchor the track. Fits the deliberately austere Dazzle Ships sessions, mixing shortwave radio samples with Prophet-5 and Mellotron.
