Suno prompt

A restless house track blending synth-pop with explosive energy and a straight four-on-the-floor feel at 133 BPM. The low end is analog synth bass playing root-note anchored, under a programmed drum machine with a brushed snare and shimmering open hats. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, rhythmic stabs. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A warm male 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 melodic lead and vocal clarity, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.

Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
