Suno prompt

A tender indie rock track with high energy and a broken-beat feel at 154 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a rimshot-forward snare and a ride-driven pattern. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, arpeggiated. The arrangement follows a slow linear build. An airy male falsetto delivers a layered in close harmony performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and melodic lead, built on chromatic and shifting 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.
