notes
On this Nightlife-era synth-pop track, a stacked-saw lead doubles the vocal melody in the choruses. Built from 1 saw + 1 square -4 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 JP-8000 supersaws and a Nord Lead 2 over Korg Triton pads-driven productions.
