notes
A mono synth-bass line, sub-reinforced and tightly filtered to sit under the kick. Voiced on Yamaha EOS B900/B200 workstation-style patches typical of this record's production (trf 〜THIS IS THE TRUTH〜, 1993). Oscillator stack: saw + pulse 40%, run through a LP 24 dB/oct filter with the envelope pushing cutoff for movement. Album opener; Komuro described it as a track that is 'chorus only' -- an early-90s J-pop take on techno-pop, built to hit the hook within seconds.
