Suno prompt

A brooding ambient track blending lo-fi hip hop with explosive energy and a broken-beat feel at 83 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under a programmed drum machine with a brushed snare and sparse dark cymbals. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A lead synth leads, building through repetition. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a wide stereo chorus on the lead. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and melodic lead, 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.
