Suno prompt

A serene folk track blending country with high energy and a broken-beat feel at 82 BPM. The low end is fretless bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a rimshot-forward snare and sizzling cymbals. Acoustic guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A warm male vocal delivers a restrained and conversational performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding vocal clarity and low-end weight, 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.
