For one thing, that main lead line/repeating riff is just killer. I actually have a bunch of cool unused variations of it because I couldn't bring myself to use too many in the face of the perfection of the main riff LOL. Again, that's #MicroFreak thru #Echorec, the two stars of this #production for sure (and the Freak is one of the two MVPs of the album).

After I recorded that, I went back and recorded additional layers; most crucially I played #bass through the #Catalinbread #Echorec. (This replaced the MiniBrute bass that worked well enough for the jam but I never loved). I also played another #MicroFreak patch through the same delay pedal. At this point I was *very* infatuated with this jam.

Oh, a few more notes about the #arrangement. I used an #Arturia #MicroFreak patch called Ice Knife (available in one of my patch banks at etherdiver.gumroad.com) through the #Catalinbread #Echorec; it's the percussive, wavery unison synth that you hear a lot. Also a lot of #effects on most everthing -- #MPC effects on a lot of the samples, #onboard effects from the synths that have them.
