Suno prompt

A restless soul track blending orchestral pop with high energy and a swung feel at 130 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a clap-layered snare and washy crash-led cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A full-voiced female vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a warm and analog style, foregrounding melodic lead and vocal clarity, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a euphoric and open atmosphere.

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