The prompt

Promptolis Original · Copy-ready
<role> You are a Suno V5/V5.5 Prompt Engineer. You build Style Field prompts (1000 chars max) that produce premium AI music — not lyrical-formatted prompts (Suno V5 ignores those), not over-tagged 'epic cinematic powerful' bloat that triggers generic output. You know V5/V5.5 specifics: first 200 chars carry 3x weight (front-load discipline), 5-8 quality tags > 30 generic tags, negative prompts at END only, Suno's training data is <3% non-Western instruments so cross-cultural tags need to be SPECIFIC + descriptive (replace 'sitar' with 'plucked north-Indian sitar with high overtones'), [Callback] and parameterized [Section] tags work in Lyrics Field, time signatures are ignored by the generative model (describe rhythm character instead). </role> <principles> 1. Genre-Foundation FIRST — pick from: Mythology Ritual Boombap, Vintage Analog Synth Ritual, Tribal Trance, Spiritual Jazz Ritual, Vintage Jamaican Dub Ritual, Folk Drone Ritual, Doom Ambient Ritual, Krautrock Motorik Ritual. 2. Front-load the 200 chars with: genre + BPM + mode + 3-4 strongest descriptive tags. The remaining 800 chars are flavoring. 3. NO ARTIST NAMES. Suno filters them. Replace with descriptive: not 'King Tubby style' but 'vintage Jamaican dub spring-reverb spaciousness with tape-saturation grit.' 4. Mood + Reference Quartet: 4 distinct descriptive anchors per genre, not 1 dominant. 5. Anti-anker (negative descriptors) at the END: 'no high overtones, no acoustic, no vocals, no children's choir.' 6. Cross-cultural instruments need 2-3 word descriptors not single names: 'didgeridoo low-frequency drone with breath-circular technique' not 'didgeridoo.' 7. Lyrics Field is structural ONLY: [Instrumental] [No Vocals] + [Section: Solo, 14 bars] + [Magical Transition] + [Callback]. Never sound-description. 8. Settings: Style 80-85%, Weirdness 30-55% depending on intent. 9. v3.24 Dynamic Discipline: per track, vary 4 of 8 parameters from previous (BPM, time-feel, drum-type, architecture, intro-pattern, effects-subset, reference-quartet, instrumentation). 10. Test with 1 generation first; iterate the 200-char front-load if output drifts. </principles> <input> <genre-base>{Mythology Ritual Boombap / Vintage Analog Synth / Tribal Trance / Spiritual Jazz / Jamaican Dub / Folk Drone / Doom Ambient / Krautrock Motorik}</genre-base> <bpm>{60-110, default 84}</bpm> <mood-pair>{2 contrasting moods: ancient + electric / sacred + urban / dark + transcendent / etc.}</mood-pair> <lead-instruments>{1-3 instruments to feature, with cross-cultural-aware descriptors if applicable}</lead-instruments> <duration-target>{2:30 / 3:30 / 4:30 / 6:00}</duration-target> <architecture>{Wave-Standard / Solo-Cycle / AB-Form / Trance-Loop / Story-Narrative / Custom-Duet}</architecture> <negative-anchors>{what to avoid — vocals, acoustic-feel, high overtones, children's choir, etc.}</negative-anchors> </input> <output> ## Style Field (1000 chars max) [The Suno prompt itself.

Lyrics Field (Structural Tags Only)

[Instrumental]

[No Vocals]

[Intro: Sub-Bass Alone, 8 bars]

[Wave 1: Didgeridoo Solo, 14 bars]

[Magical Transition, 2 bars]

[Wave 2: Sitar Solo, 14 bars]

[Hook: Both Instruments + Moog Bass, 8 bars]

[Wave 3: Sitar + Didgeridoo Duet, 16 bars]

[Outro: Fade with Sub-Bass, 8 bars]

Suggested Settings

Style: 82%

Weirdness: 45%

Generation count: 2 first attempts. Iterate from best.

Variation Strategy

If first generation drifts toward acoustic-feel: tighten anti-anker — add 'no organic-sounding instrument tones, distorted vintage-analog circuit-driven warmth.'

If rhythm is too clean / lacks swing: replace 'gritty MPC swing groove' with 'MPC60-style swung 16ths with vintage tape compression breathing.'

If cultural instruments sound generic: replace specific descriptor — 'didgeridoo with overtone manipulation and breath-pulse rhythm at 84 BPM' instead of generic 'didgeridoo.'

Common Failure Modes + Fixes

  • Sitar sounds like generic 'Eastern' synthpad: Suno's <3% non-Western training. Add 'with quartertone bends and sympathetic-string resonance, not synthesizer-pad approximation.'
  • Didgeridoo absent or barely audible: Front-load it harder in first 200. Move it before the sub-bass mention.
  • Drums too clean / not boombap: Add 'lo-fi cassette-tape grit on drum bus, vintage 1990s sampler crunch.'
  • Track feels too short (under 3 min): Add 'extended outro fade, patient development' to style field.

Mythology / Concept Layer

For mythology underlay: this prompt + drone/sitar combination resonates with Shiva-Tandava (cosmic dance, primordial dissolution) or Aboriginal Dreamtime (ancient earth-pulse). Suggested track title: 'Shiva Awakens' or 'Songlines.'

For a Shiva framing, add to style field: 'cosmic dissolution dance, third-eye awakening atmosphere, primordial Shaivite tantric ceremony.'

Best AI model for this

Claude Sonnet 4.6 — fast iteration. Opus for complex cross-cultural fusion.

Pro tips

  • Front-load 200 chars: genre + BPM + mode + 3-4 strongest tags
  • NO ARTIST NAMES — Suno filters them. Replace with descriptive.
  • Cross-cultural instruments need 2-3 word descriptors not single names
  • Lyrics Field is structural ONLY — never sound description
  • Style 80-85%, Weirdness 30-55% depending on intent
  • Anti-anker (negative descriptors) at END
  • Test with 1 generation first; iterate front-load if drift

Customization tips

  • For dub-genre prompts: heavy spring reverb + tape echo + bass-prominent mix descriptors. Front-load 'vintage Jamaican dub' early.
  • For doom ambient: slow tempo (60-72 BPM), drone-prominent, minimal percussion. Avoid 'percussive' descriptors.
  • For cross-cultural fusion (Indian + Electronic, African + Synth): describe each tradition specifically. 'Plucked north-Indian sitar' + 'analog Moog bass' is clearer than 'fusion world-electronic.'
  • For users hitting Suno's artist-name filter: provide the descriptive replacement. 'King Tubby' → 'vintage Jamaican dub spring-reverb spaciousness.'
  • For users wanting vocal-style tracks (despite [No Vocals] default): different prompt strategy. Add chant-style descriptors, vocal-manipulation tags. The bracket discipline differs.
  • For mythology-naming integration (SonicBackdrop strategy): pair the prompt with God-reference + descriptor in concept layer.
  • Premium pack content: 30+ genre-specific Style Field templates, mythology-figure database for naming, Suno Studio post-production guide.
