notes
On this Release-era synth-pop track, an electric-piano-style patch carries the chord progression. Built from FM 2-op electric piano through a LP 12 dB/oct filter (fast snap that settles over the sustain), it sits in the mix true to the period's Nord Lead and early softsynths kept deliberately in the background of Johnny Marr's guitars-driven productions.
