notes
The topline synth lead, cutting through the mix with a bright detuned stack. Voiced on approximated from avex trax's late-90s in-house dance-pop production: Roland JV-1080/XV-5080 rompler-style patches typical of this record's production (UNITE, 1998). Oscillator stack: saw + PWM square, run through a LP 24 dB/oct filter with the envelope pushing cutoff for movement.
