An up-tempo track perfect for heated battles has arrived! Released by Marasy in August 2020, this piece was written for the web movie of the Tokyo Marathon 2020 official drink, Pocari Sweat.

Its exhilarating, fast-paced band sound gives listeners courage.

The lyrics celebrate the importance of hard work and the greatness of holding on to hope.

Perhaps the one that might link to the situation you’re in while listening is “Strong Wind All Back.” This is a track by Yukopi, known for a style that spotlights everyday moments.

In this piece, it depicts someone being blown by a strong wind so that their hair is slicked straight back, and how they can’t move forward because they’re buffeted by the gusts.

With a laid-back melody featuring the sound of a recorder, it’s perfect to play when you want to relax and focus, or when you want to create a fun, lighthearted atmosphere.

Nayutan Seijin, known for releasing many space-themed songs, included the track “Hikou Shoujo” (Flying Girl) on his first album, “Object X from Planet Nayutan.” This song is characterized by its distorted, electrified vocals.

It portrays a woman who wants to fly through the sky with the one she loves and head somewhere far away.

It’s a perfect fit for moments when you want to ramp up the excitement.

Another charm is the call-and-response sections, which make it easy for everyone to join in and shout along.

If you like VOCALOID, you’ve probably heard this at least once.

It’s a song that spins round and round atop a straightforward guitar rock sound.

The lyrics, which depict the sense of distance between oneself and the people around them, as well as their inner feelings, are deeply thought-provoking.

By shifting that distance and understanding the meaning of what is expressed each time, you’ll feel it more profoundly.

The composer says, “It became a song filled with my current situation, the path I’ve taken until now, and many different feelings.” Please give it a listen.

Love HeroLast Note.

It’s a striking track that’s wildly raucous yet somehow feels clean and refined.

The crashing band sound and processed vocals instantly seize our attention.

Amid all that, what unfolds is a thrilling, powerful story of love.

But you’ll realize from the intro alone that it’s nothing like a typical love song.

The feelings of being in love are expressed in such a casual tone and with such light words that, taken in fragments, you might not think it’s a love song at all.

Listen for yourself, and try belting it out at the top of your lungs.

Hatsune Miku: We’ve Started Serving Hiyashi Chuka (Original) Hiyashi Chuka Hajimemashita

It’s a lively, fun song packed to bursting with energy.

The impression you get from its Chinese-style sound can be summed up in one word: “sunny.” True to the title, the lyrics tell stories related to “We’ve started serving chilled Chinese noodles.” Spotting those words on a sign in town sparks thoughts and feelings of summer—this is that kind of song.

Give it a listen, and take a moment to think about what summer means to you.

Turn your sports day or field day into a full-on festival with an EDM-style Vocaloid banger! This collaborative track by popular Vocaloid producers Hachioji-P and Giga was released in 2019.

It’s a super cool song where powerful, punchy bass pairs perfectly with sparkling vocal work.

Given the vibe, it might fit better with team-versus-team events than solo efforts like the 100-meter dash.

Be sure to ask your teacher or the broadcasting club to crank the volume up a bit!
