Just had a quick question about the song; is the bass double tracked? Because especially during the intro you can hear a semi-distorted sounding bass line (that kind of biting "dow dow dow dow" you hear) as well as a more traditional tone underneath that sort of goes with the keyboard, but the one underneath could be me mistaking the keyboard's lower range for a bass line.

Ahhh, so the clavinet eh? Good to know. For some reason this was bugging me for a while and I was anxious to find out the instrumentation.

Thanks a lot.
