notes
On this Bilingual-era synth-pop track, an electric-piano-style patch carries the chord progression. Built from sample-based EP + saw layer -8 through a LP 12 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.
