notes
On this Nonetheless-era synth-pop track, a slow-attack pad washes under the verses and swells into the chorus. Built from 3 saw -12 detuned through a LP 12 dB/oct filter (fast snap that settles over the sustain), it sits in the mix true to the period's Moog and Prophet-5/OB-6-style analogue synths blended with Jules Buckley's orchestral arrangements under James Ford-driven productions.
