The prompt
A restless hard rock track with high energy and a swung feel at 118 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a brushed snare and a ride-driven pattern. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. An electric guitar leads, building through repetition. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the lead. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding melodic lead and low-end weight, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.
