i like this cos the synth parts are much simpler than on the record, monophonic analogue synths need a lot of work in the studio to build them up to a sophisticated sound. this is nice honest synth playing!

@@Aspen-The-Folf ok i don't know that is true, maybe it is, and sure the basic riff could be driven by a sequencer, but a lot of the synth, sounds played to me. There are subtle differences in the timbre of the notes being played which you usually only get on an an analogue synth because the players key strokes are subtly different each time making the envelope generators behave slightly differently which when applied to the filter cut off results in the subtle change in timbre - just sayin....
