The prompt

A euphoric R&B track with explosive energy and a broken-beat feel at 98 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a clap-layered snare and shimmering open hats. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A breathy female vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a dub-style tape 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 calm and settled atmosphere.
