Suno prompt

A restless synth-pop track with explosive energy and a broken-beat feel at 75 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under a programmed drum machine with a gated and roomy snare and tight closed hats. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, rhythmic stabs. The arrangement follows verse-chorus. A warm male vocal 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 vocal clarity and low-end weight, built on extended seventh chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.

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