These notes describe the production brief. Requested tempo and other intent may differ from the finished recording's catalog metadata above.
techno, 126 BPM, nocturnal, instrumental, no vocals, Deep house and broadcast bed. Precision mix engineering, groove-first, mono-compatible.

Sub-bass below 60 Hz: controlled, never overwhelming, high-pass filtered at 30 Hz for clarity. Juno-style chord stabs: warm analog emulation, slight detune, sidechained to kick for rhythmic pulsing.
