# The prompt word template library uses the following corresponding template structure to generate prompts based on the matching style: ## Template 1: Eason Chan's urban pop ``` A Mandarin pop ballad in the style of Eason Chan's mid-career introspective works — think "Shall We Talk" or "Good To Be Bad", produced by CY Kong. Warm Rhodes electric piano playing sparse broken chords as the harmonic spine, the way Kong layers a muffled electronic pulse underneath Acoustic instruments. Male vocals in Eason's register — mid-range baritone, slightly nasal, restrained, never belting, delivering lyrics as if talking to himself on a late-night subway. 82 BPM, slow swing feel. A single cello line enters in the second half as a counter-melody, the way Eason's ballads always save one instrument for the emotional turn. Subtle ambient layer of distant subway announcements and train-door chimes mixed very low. The arrangement follows Kong's signature arc: verse is naked piano and voice only, pre-chorus adds a gentle bass pulse and finger-snaps, chorus brings in a small string section and one layer of backing vocals humming a fifth above. No drum kit — only a lo-fi drum machine with brushed texture. Melancholic, urban, intimate, like a conversation you have with yourself at 11 PM on Beijing Line 10. ```` ## Template 2: Sakamoto Ryuichi-style minimalist piano```` An ambient piano piece in the style of Ryuichi Sakamoto's late works — specifically the aesthetic of "async" and "12". A single upright piano recorded with room microphone, capturing the natural reverb and the mechanical sound of keys and pedals. No quantization, no click track — the tempo breathes freely around 52 BPM, slowing and accelerating like human thought. Sparse, deliberate notes with long silences between phrases, the way Sakamoto lets each note decay fully before playing the next. A subtle layer of field recordings underneath: distant Beijing traffic hum, a window rattling softly, the faint buzz of a refrigerator. No drums, no bass, no synthesizer pads. In the second half, a single sustained cello tone enters and holds for 8 bars, creating a slow harmonic shift beneath the piano. Female vocals appear only as wordless humming, barely audible, mixed as if coming from another room. The overall mix should feel like a 2 AM recording in a quiet apartment — intimate, imperfect, full of space and silence. Melancholic but not sad. Still. ``` ## Template 3: A Mandarin folk ballad in the songwriting philosophy of Jonathan Lee — the restraint of "New Old Song" and the raw simplicity of "Hill". A single nylon-string acoustic guitar fingerpicking a simple arpeggiated pattern as the only accompaniment for the first half — no other instruments, just voice and guitar, the way Lee strips everything away to force the lyrics to carry all the weight. Male vocals in a weathered, spoken-singing style — not technically perfect, slightly breathless, the way Lee delivers lines as if he's talking to you across a kitchen table rather than performing. 63 BPM, rubato feel. An erhu enters only in the final third, playing a single sustained melodic line that mirrors the vocal melody one octave higher — the way Mac Chew arranges Lee's records, saving the emotional peak instrument for the very end. No drums, no bass guitar, no synthesizers, no backing vocals. The mix should sound like a live recording in a small room — you can hear the guitarist's fingers sliding on strings, the singer's breath between phrases. Warm, analog, imperfect. neo-classical orchestral piece. 72 BPM. Opens with deep, resonant **Tanggu (Chinese barrel drums).** A lyrical **solo Erhu** leads with exquisite vibrato, supported by a **lush 60-piece string orchestra**. High-end digital reverb for a vast, panoramic soundscape. Awe-inspiring and timeless. ```` ## Template 5: Hisaishi Joe Style```` An ethereal Mandarin fusion track. 60 BPM. **Crystalline Guzheng and Harp duet** playing cascading arpeggios. A **breathy Xiao flute** carries a melancholic melody. Build to a climax with **soaring wordless female soprano vocals (vocalise).** Pure, pristine, and spiritually uplifting. `` ## Template 6: Kitaro style`` A mystical ethnic-ambient track. 80 BPM. Features a **haunting Duduk or Suona** (played softly). Intricate **hand drum percussion (Tablas/Udu). Vintage synthesizer pads** create a shimmering desert horizon effect. Mysterious, artistic, and visually evocative. `` ## Template 7: Ryuichi Sakamoto minimalist style`` A minimalist Mandarin avant-garde piece. 55 BPM. **Single upright piano** recorded with high room resonance, paired with **sparse Pipa plucking.** No percussion. Long silences between phrases. **Ambient water droplets** mixed low. Introspective and deeply calm. `` ## Template 8: Tan Dun Style`` A dramatic Mandarin martial arts orchestral track. 100 BPM. **Staccato violins** playing rapid motifs. Sharp **bamboo flute (Dizi)** trills. Powerful **Taiko drum accents**. A **low-pitched solo cello** provides a dark, tense foundation. Intense, cinematic, and sharp. ``` ## Template 9: Soujiro style ``` A tender, melodic Mandarin folk piece. 68 BPM. **Sweet Ocarina or Xun** melody. Template 10: An epic Mandarin fantasy orchestral anthem. 95 BPM. **Heavy cinematic percussion** meets **powerful male choir (Oohs and Aahs)**. rhythmic Mandarin New Age track. 110 BPM. **Plucked strings (Guqin/Sanxian)** layered over a **modern electronic beat. Nature field recordings** (birds, rustling leaves) integrated into the percussion. Bright, rhythmic, and full of life. ``` ## Template 12: Meilin Shigeru style`` A melancholic Mandarin tango-influenced ballad. 60 BPM (3/4 time). **Solemn solo violin** and **melancholic accordion.** Sparse **Guzheng glissandos** provide an oriental texture. Lush, dark string pads. Sophisticated, cinematic, and heartbroken. ``` ## Template 13: Tang Dynasty Palace Restoration Music`` A vibrant Mandarin traditional court ensemble. 88 BPM. Features **Pipa, Sheng, and multiple flutes** playing in harmony. **Bright bronze bells and chime percussion**. A festive yet elegant atmosphere. Rich, ornate, and culturally grand. ```
