Recording Notes

• The core sound is likely a sawtooth wave from a Roland Juno-106 or similar analog synth.
• The Sherman Filterbank provides the aggressive distortion and resonant sweeps.
• The Aphex Aural Exciter enhances the high-end frequencies, adding brightness and presence.
• Envelope modulation and filter sweeps create rhythmic movement and variation.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a sawtooth wave on an analog or virtual analog synthesizer.
• Use a filterbank or distortion pedal to add heavy distortion and resonant peaks.
• Experiment with filter sweeps and LFO modulation to create rhythmic movement.
• Use an exciter or high-shelf EQ to add brightness and air to the sound.
• Adjust the filter and distortion settings to achieve the desired level of aggression and grit.
