Layering dreams.Amerika min’yō kenkyūkai

Layered Dreams. / Kasane Teto, Female 1

An emotional poetry reading piece where Kasane Teto’s singing and narration layer upon each other in multiple folds.

The track is by Haniwa of the American Folk Song Research Society and was released in January 2026.

It also garnered attention for featuring illustrations by Avogado6.

The song originally debuted on the compilation album “Uso no Tsuzukikata,” distributed at an event in April 2025.

You’ll be drawn in by the contrast between Teto’s rambling, conversational delivery and the solemn melodic line.

Let yourself be swept away by these waves of sound.

Creature / Satsuki × Daimaku Hashin × Yase Yoshida feat. Hatsune Miku, Kasane Teto SV

An electro-rock tune packed with explosive power that cranks your energy to the max without question! Creature, a collaboration by Satsuki, Namishin Daimaku, and Yayo Yoshida, was released in January 2026.

The roaring sound design will have your body moving before you know it.

The sheer heat generated by the collision of the trio’s unique styles, Hiro Moto Hiraishin’s guitar, Akita Horie’s bass, and Ryusei’s visuals is simply astounding.

The razor-sharp lyrics, which capture a heart wavering between creation and consumption, are another big draw.

Give it a listen when you want to blow away the haze or fire yourself up.

Working VoicesShanon

Working Voices / Shannon feat. asa, Hatsune Miku, and Otomachi Una

A work with a curious texture that shines a light on the “announcement voices” that sound in the gaps of everyday life.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Shannon, released in January 2026.

Created around the theme of the voices that keep the city running—like elevator announcements and train conductors’ calls.

Featuring asa, a new Yamaha voicebank, alongside Hatsune Miku and Otomachi Una, the interplay of their contrasting timbres is a key highlight.

You can’t help but sense a story in what should be impersonal audio.

Try listening to it overlaid with the sounds of the city you catch during your commute to work or school.

You might find it hard to escape this world the piece creates!

Magical Karmanoi

[HELLO OSAKA] Magical Karma feat. Kitsuneko [Original Song]

It’s a thrilling, fast-paced track.

Released in January 2026 as a work born from the original animation project “HELLO OSAKA,” set in a future Osaka.

The songwriter and composer is Noi, a Vocaloid producer renowned for sharp, cutting guitar sounds.

Vocals are by the musical AI counterpart, Kitsuneko.

Noi’s signature emotional sound brilliantly captures a world where reality and the virtual intersect—it’s seriously cool! The lyrical storytelling, where causality and magic seem to intertwine, is another highlight.

Add this razor-sharp tune to your playlist!

See you in the next life!Satō Naiko

Best regards in the next life! / Kaai Yuki feat. Wakana

It’s a Vocaloid track that conveys resignation toward the present world and a sense of nihilism, and I find myself irresistibly drawn to it.

Co-created by Noko Sato and Utsunoki, “Best Regards to the Next Life!” is slated for release in January 2026.

The innocent vocals of Kaai Yuki and the UTAU voicebank Wakana’s chorus blend seamlessly into the polished electro sound.

Living while wishing for an end… it’s sure to resonate deeply with anyone worn down by daily life.

On nights when you want to forget everything, why not listen closely and let it sink in?

[Guaranteed Crazy Luck!?] Fortune-telling & Astrology-tion! [Ultra Good Luck Channel] [Wuthering Waves]

A work by Vocaloid producer Karasuyasabo, released in January 2026.

Created as a tie-in with the Solaris Super Cup project for the open-world action RPG Wuthering Waves, this piece packs a punch with a sound that incorporates ska-funk elements, complete with blaring trumpets and saxophones.

With many professional musicians participating, it feels wonderfully vibrant.

The entertainment-driven lyrics themed around ‘good fortune’ are sure to put a smile on your face.

Highly recommended for when you just want to get pumped up!

An addictive technopop that grabs your heart with its thrilling soundscape.
