Some nights I just want to find an EDM trac that I’ve never heard that gives me all the feels. I spend an hour or more going through Apple Music’s recs and may eventually find something. It doesn’t though, always say lyrically what I’m feeling, so, I thought what if I use Suno to build one. I took a different aproach at writing this one that I’ve never really took. I focused on the Lyrics, in hopes that Suno would provide the feels. I started generating, trying to engeneer just the right prompt. I only had 1000 chars to invent this. It wouldn’t work, 20 generations and who know’s how many credits later, I still just had the lyrics without the feels… So I turned to Chat GPT, and learned! Never invent the prompt yourself as a human. Pour out your sole to GPT, and, let both AI’s communicate! it happens to work scarily well.
Here is the final prompt I used from Gpt!
Very slow, powerful cinematic emotional melodic EDM, ~56–60 BPM, key center A major/F# minor. Smooth airy higher-register British female vocal, intimate and clear, never deep/husky. Instrumental intro only, NO humming or wordless vocals. Verse: huge low, full-bodied piano chords, F#m–D–A, with deep resonance, cinematic strings, atmosphere and soundtrack impacts; NO drums. Keep Verse 1 sparse and heavy with emotion. Pre-chorus: D–E–F#m–A, gradually intensifying through piano, swelling strings and cinematic tension, still NO drums. Chorus “Rules to Break”: return to F#m–D–A, bigger piano, soaring strings, sub swells and massive cinematic impacts, but NOT full EDM yet. AFTER FIRST CHORUS insert a CLEAR EXTENDED INSTRUMENTAL BREAK before Verse 2: piano, strings, atmosphere, low impacts; absolutely do not immediately begin Verse 2. Verse 2 returns to F#m–D–A and drums gradually enter for the first time. From there build toward enormous cinematic melodic-bass/dubstep final chorus.
It got the key, the chord structure, which I have never been able to get it to do without uploading audio to have it learn from. It isn’t exactly the record that was in my head, but it does provide all the feels! I took it today and added bass drops, cenamatic fx etc, and was able to master the track, making it quite hot, loud!! Listen below!
