1st Breakdown
8 x only bass, basic synth pad, kick and snare. On 6th bar only, lead synth riff. Drums do small pick up at
4&
Start - 2:24

8 x verse lyrics + on 1st bar only icy synth pad and no other synth pad at all during 8 bars and bass + hi hat
(only on 1st 4 bars) and kick and snare. Snare changes after 7th bar 1st beat, to no decay

8 x chorus part; Drums do small pick up at 4&
Start - 3:12

Bridge
8 x full kick and snare, sub-bass on one chord, repetitive lyric with effects on vocal stem "won't you care for
me", di-di-di synth effect throughout on same chord, synth pad swell up and down throughout on same
chord. Small drum pickup on 4&.
Start - 3:27

Key learning point - staying on same chord for bridge and repeating lyrical riff builds anticipation, but use
opportunity to use arpeggios, and having at least 2 synth effects, all on static chord, to add some sonic
variety and reduce monotony in staying on same chord.

8 x stick with repetitive lyric and stem but continue with effects on it, filter drums and bass, and on last 2
bars, only high hats and vocal reverbs (no sub-bass), on 4& kick and snare
Start - 3:44
