Suno prompt

A triumphant cinematic orchestral track with driving energy and a half-time feel at 120 BPM. The low end is upright bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a brushed snare and sparse dark cymbals. String section carries the harmony, swelling and cinematic. The arrangement follows a slow linear build. A string section leads, building through repetition. Analog hiss adds texture, with a short room reverb on the lead. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding melodic lead and low-end weight, built on extended seventh 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.
