Hope you enjoy it

I was just reading about that movie, wanting to watch it again cause I really loved it when I was younger. This is a coincidence I support.

Very 70's, had me thinking of a more cheery and sped up version of Magic Fly by Space. If that's a tape saturation plugin you're using for the distortion on the synths, would use it more subtly than that.

Hey Haze!

No plugins, just straight into my 8-track

The lead is three voices in unison with some delay; decided as an aesthetic choice to 'exceed headroom' in the recording as a kind of sonic counterpoint to the rest of the piece which is just organ, bass and another little flute synth

Real tape! I like what its doing to the sound, just felt it could be a touch less distorted, which is bizarre for me. I actually make use of an old Fostex 4-track on my band's new single: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAi27zIvVcs Love these things so much.
