Style recipe for Suno v5

Skweee

Skweee synth funk from the 2010s: squeezed synth lead, fat analog bass, simple drum machine, playful and warm in feel. A name-free Suno recipe that reproduces the signature sound without tripping the artist-name filter.

History

Skweee came out of Sweden and Finland as stripped-down funk made on synthesizers: simple chiptune-style leads and basslines laid over funk, R&B or soul rhythms, almost always instrumental, sometimes with a vocoder. The name was coined by Daniel Savio, one of the originators of the sound, and refers to the aim of squeezing the most interesting sounds possible out of an analog synth. Two labels became its main outlets, Flogsta Danshall in Sweden and Harmönia in Finland, and imprints from France, Spain and the United States joined them later. The format of choice was the 7-inch single, and the earliest releases came out on nothing else; 12-inch records, digital releases and CD compilations followed only afterwards. As the genre grew more noticeable, Eero Johannes released an album on Planet Mu, and producers such as Rusko, Joker, Zomby and Rustie tried their own versions, leaving a run of records on the border between skweee and dubstep. Skweee remixes were also made for pop acts such as La Roux, Little Boots and Lady Gaga.
