```
GENRE/STYLE: robotic-disco / electronic-orchestral, mechanized funk-procession
BPM: 103
KEY: E minor
VOICE: vocoded harmonized-vowel choir pad as lead surface texture; breathy agile flute counter-line; mono-synth threads underneath.
INSTRUMENTATION: modular synth pulses + arpeggios as electronic spine; metronomic plucked bass; staccato chicken-scratch guitar quantized to grid; live hand-percussion (congas, bongos, shaker) locked machine-tight; dry kit; upper string pad.
AMBIANCE: processional, widescreen, ceremonial — automated funk, human warmth welded to a grid.
REFERENCE VIBE: circuitry waking at dusk, woodwind marching neon machinery down a quantized boulevard.
STRUCTURE: perc 0-16, flute 16-32, full groove 32-64, choir lift 64-96, breakdown 96-112, tutti 112-end.
