notes
On this Please-era synth-pop track, a clipped, resonant bass line locks to the kick and carries the harmonic movement. Built from 2 saw -3 + sub through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (slow filter opening across the phrase), 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.
