notes
On this Yes-era synth-pop track, a fast 16th-note arpeggio drives the rhythmic bed alongside the drum machine. Built from 1 square -3 through a BP 12 dB/oct filter (slow filter opening across the phrase), it sits in the mix true to the period's Nord Lead and Access Virus TI under Xenomania (Brian Higgins)-driven productions.
