notes
On this Bilingual-era synth-pop track, short synth-brass stabs punctuate the chorus hits. Built from 2 saw -2 + brass wave through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (slow filter opening across the phrase), it sits in the mix true to the period's Roland JD-800 and Korg 01/W plus Emu Vintage Keys-driven productions.
