Prompt

STYLE FIELD:
cinematic trailer music, epic hybrid orchestra, {{tone}}, {{tempo}} BPM, opening {{soloist}} solo, staccato string ostinatos, huge taiko percussion, low brass braams, dark synth bed, wordless choir singing "ah" and "oh", steady crescendo, wide dynamics, large hall sound, no lead vocals

LYRICS FIELD (structure tags only):
[Instrumental]
[Intro: {{soloist}} alone, fragile and distant]
[Build: string ostinato and percussion pulse enter]
[Rise: tension riser, low brass hit every four bars]
[Silence]
[Climax: full orchestra, epic choir, taikos at full power]
[Final Hit: {{ending}}]
[End]

How to use it

  1. In Suno (Custom mode), paste the style into Style and the tags into Lyrics.
  2. Pick the tone and solo instrument that match your video’s story.
  3. Generate several takes: the [Silence] tag is not always respected, so keep the one with the cleanest cut before the climax.
  4. Cut your video to the hits in the music, not the other way around.

Usage example

Tone: dark fantasy · Tempo: 90 · Soloist: cello · Ending: one deep hit followed by a long held note.

Overall feel

Dark fantasy: it starts intimate, almost mournful, and builds relentlessly to a massive ending, with wide dynamics and a large-hall sound.

Note

No lead vocal or lyrics; the choir sings vowels only. If the silence gets skipped, regenerate or cut it in afterwards in an editor…

Frequently asked questions

Why a wordless choir?

Open vowels give the classic epic trailer feel without the model inventing words that distract or sound odd.

How long will the track be?

Suno decides the final length, and it can change between generations. If you need an exact duration, trim it in your editor and use the extend feature to lengthen sections.

Does it work for game trailers?

Yes. Switch the tone to sci-fi or adventure, and replace the taikos with electronic percussion if the game has a modern look.
