Use: 'synthwave', '80s retro', 'analog synths', 'pulsing arpeggios', 'neon atmosphere', 'VHS aesthetic'. Add 'nostalgic', 'driving beat', 'gated reverb drums'. For vocals, specify 'vocoder' or 'retro vocal processing' if wanted.
Include: 'house', 'four-on-the-floor', 'groovy bassline', 'warm pads'. Add subgenre specifics: 'deep house' for moody, 'tech house' for harder, 'progressive house' for builds. Specify 'club ready' or 'dancefloor' for that energy.
Use: 'techno', 'dark', 'industrial', 'relentless beat', 'warehouse energy', 'minimal', 'pounding kicks'. Add texture words: 'gritty', 'mechanical', 'hypnotic'. Avoid anything 'bright', 'euphoric', or 'uplifting' which conflict with dark techno.
You may be missing dynamic descriptors. Add: 'driving', 'building', 'euphoric drop', 'energetic', 'pulsing'. Include beat energy: 'pounding', 'relentless', 'uptempo'. Remove any 'chill', 'ambient', or 'relaxed' tags that reduce energy.
Use dubstep or future bass tags: 'dubstep', 'wobble bass', 'heavy drops', 'aggressive bass', 'filthy'. For future bass: 'lush chords', 'emotional build', 'euphoric drop'. Specify 'bass-heavy' and 'hard-hitting' for impact.
