Suno prompt

A brooding funk track with explosive energy and a swung feel at 125 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under a programmed drum machine with a clap-layered snare and sizzling cymbals. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, fingerpicked. 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 vocal clarity and low-end weight, 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.
