      It has the Yamaha FM slap bass, so that’s why it’s sounds like a sega genesis or AdLib/Sound Blaster as they used Yamaha FM synthesisers as well, a lot of mid to late-80s composers used Roland and Yamaha synthesisers that went on the go into consumer grade hardware as they became more affordable in the early 90s

    Making a Giant Steps remix of it and it still sounding good proves that it is genuinely an undeniably good song. You can't ruin it by bending the key, it will laugh in your face with slap'ness.

    Did you use Zynaptiq Pitchmap for this? I've mutated stuff like this before, by using chords via midi to control audio. In my case I use to make a sample fit, or to take an untuned source like whale song and make it conform to a chord progression I'd made. Never occured to me to do this. Seems like you've given me something to do in Ableton for the next three hours :)
