notes
On this Please-era synth-pop track, a bright detuned lead carries the topline hook. Built from 2 saw -7 through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (tight envelope with almost no movement), it sits in the mix true to the period's Fairlight CMI and Emulator II sampling workstations plus a Roland Jupiter-6 and Yamaha DX7-driven productions.
