notes
On this Nightlife-era synth-pop track, a string-machine-style pad sustains the chord bed beneath the vocal. Built from 3 saw -12 detuned through a LP 12 dB/oct filter (envelope opens then closes on each note), 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.
