The prompt

A brooding soul track blending R&B with high energy and a swung feel at 87 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a clap-layered snare and tight closed hats. Electric piano carries the harmony, block chords, with saxophone. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A warm male vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and atmospheric space, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.

The source recording is deleted once the analysis finishes, and no lyrics from it are stored. The measurements and classifications are automated estimates, so use them as a starting point and trust your ears.
