{
  "model": "suno-v5.5",
  "prompt": "A warm lo-fi hip hop beat perfect for late-night studying. Dusty vinyl crackle throughout. A mellow Rhodes electric piano plays a repeating four-chord jazz progression in a minor key. Boom-bap drums with a lazy swing feel, heavy on the snare with low-passed hi-hats. A subtle upright bass plucks root notes on the downbeats. Occasional tape wow and flutter effects. Tempo around 75 BPM. The overall mood is cozy, introspective, and slightly melancholic, like rain on a window at 2 AM."

{
  "model": "suno-v5",
  "prompt": "An energetic synthwave track that sounds like driving a neon-lit highway at midnight in 1985. Pulsing analog synthesizer bassline with sidechain compression. Bright arpeggiated lead synth playing a catchy, uplifting melody. Gated reverb snare drums and electronic kick on every beat. A soaring guitar solo enters halfway through, drenched in chorus and delay. Tempo 120 BPM. Build to an anthemic chorus with layered pads and octave-doubled melody. The mood is nostalgic, triumphant, and cinematic."

{
  "model": "suno-v4.5",
  "prompt": "A gentle acoustic folk ballad about watching seasons change from a cabin porch. Fingerpicked steel-string acoustic guitar in open D tuning provides the foundation. A soft male vocal with a warm, slightly raspy tone sings verses about morning frost, migrating birds, and the first snow. Light harmonica accents between verses. A subtle cello enters on the final chorus adding emotional depth. Tempo around 85 BPM in 3/4 waltz time. The recording should sound intimate, as if performed in a small wooden room with natural room reverb."

{
  "model": "suno-v5.5",
  "prompt": "Cinematic orchestral trailer music that builds from quiet tension to massive climax. Opens with a solo cello playing a haunting four-note motif over low sustained strings. Gradually adds timpani rolls, French horns playing the motif in canon, and a snare drum military rhythm. At the midpoint, the full orchestra explodes with brass fanfare, crashing cymbals, and a powerful choir singing wordless syllables. Massive taiko drums drive the rhythm in the final section. The piece ends with a sudden silence followed by a single deep piano note that rings out and fades."

{
  "model": "suno-v4",
  "prompt": "A smooth bossa nova instrumental perfect for a upscale café atmosphere. Nylon-string classical guitar plays the characteristic syncopated bossa nova rhythm pattern. A brushed snare drum and light kick provide a gentle samba-inflected groove. Walking acoustic bass outlines extended jazz chords — major 7ths, 9ths, and 13ths. A breathy alto flute carries the melody, occasionally improvising around the main theme. Tempo 130 BPM. The mix should feel spacious and warm, as if recorded live in a small intimate club with audience ambience barely audible in the background."

{
  "model": "suno-v5",
  "prompt": "An atmospheric dark ambient soundscape for a horror game menu screen. Deep sub-bass drones that slowly modulate in pitch create an unsettling foundation. Distant metallic scrapes and reverb-drenched impacts occur irregularly. A detuned music box melody plays fragments of a lullaby, but slowed down to half speed with heavy filtering. Whispered, unintelligible vocal textures drift in and out of the stereo field. No steady rhythm or tempo — everything floats and shifts. The overall feeling is dread, emptiness, and the sense that something is watching from the dark."

{
  "model": "suno-v5.5",
  "prompt": "A tight, head-nodding funk groove centered around a virtuosic slap bass riff. The bass alternates between percussive thumb slaps on the low E and popping octaves on the G string in a 16th-note pattern. Clavinet plays choppy rhythm chords with auto-wah filter sweeps. Drums lay down a deep pocket groove with ghost notes on the snare and an open hi-hat on the and-of-four. A muted trumpet plays staccato horn stabs on the one of every other measure. Tempo 100 BPM. Raw and unpolished recording feel, like a live jam session captured on analog tape."

{
  "model": "suno-v4.5",
  "prompt": "An intense 8-bit chiptune boss battle theme for a retro platformer game. Fast tempo at 160 BPM. The lead melody uses a square wave with rapid pitch bends and arpeggios in E minor. Triangle wave bass plays driving eighth notes outlining power chords. The pulse channel drums deliver aggressive kick-snare patterns with fills every four bars. A brief four-bar breakdown in the middle drops to half speed before exploding back. The composition loops seamlessly. Inspired by NES-era Mega Man and Castlevania soundtracks — urgent, relentless, and catchy despite hardware limitations."

{
  "model": "suno-v5",
  "prompt": "A silky smooth R&B slow jam with a female vocalist who has a rich, soulful alto voice. Lush pad synths and a warm sub-bass create a pillowy harmonic bed. Programmed drums with a half-time feel — crisp snare on beat three, deep 808 kick, and delicate hi-hat rolls. The vocal melody is intimate and conversational, with tasteful runs and ad-libs in the chorus. A brief interlude features a talk-box guitar solo. Tempo 68 BPM. The production is polished and modern but with analog warmth — think late-night drives with the windows down."

{
  "model": "suno-v5.5",
  "prompt": "A bright, catchy indie pop instrumental perfect for a tech podcast intro. Hand-claps and stomps establish a four-on-the-floor rhythm. Jangly electric guitar plays an arpeggiated chord pattern through a clean amp with light chorus. A whistled melody carries the main hook — simple, memorable, and optimistic. Glockenspiel doubles the melody an octave up during the second phrase. Bass guitar provides bouncy root-fifth movement. The track should feel complete in 30 seconds — quick intro, hook, and a clean ending on a sustained chord. Tempo 118 BPM. The vibe is friendly, smart, and welcoming."
