The prompt

A tender soul track with high energy and a broken-beat feel at 80 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a tight and dry snare and sparse dark cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A warm male vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a wide stereo chorus 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 calm and settled atmosphere.

About this page

This is an independent acoustic analysis. Tempo and key are measured from the audio; instrumentation and production characteristics are classified against a fixed vocabulary. 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.
