Suno prompt
A tender indie rock track with high energy and a swung feel at 118 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a rimshot-forward 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 raw and unpolished performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding melodic lead and vocal clarity, built on simple triad chords, leaving a calm and settled atmosphere.
Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
