Suno prompt

A melancholy ambient track with steady energy and a half-time feel at 113 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a tight and dry snare and sparse dark cymbals. Grand piano carries the harmony, swelling and cinematic. The arrangement follows a slow linear build. A grand piano leads, building through repetition. Reversed swells add texture, with a short room reverb on the lead. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and atmospheric space, built on lush ninth and eleventh chords, leaving a nostalgic and hazy atmosphere.

Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
