notes
On this Bilingual-era synth-pop track, a cutting monophonic lead answers the vocal phrase by phrase. Built from 2 saw -5 unison through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (fast snap that settles over the sustain), it sits in the mix true to the period's Roland JD-800 and Korg 01/W plus Emu Vintage Keys-driven productions.
