I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

There are truly countless songs in the VOCALOID scene, but in this article, I’ve put together a selection of especially stylish tracks.

Of course, “stylish” means different things to different people, so I’ve tried to choose from a wide range of genres without drawing sharp boundaries.

So there should definitely be something in the style you like.

Check them all out to the end and find the number that moves your heart.

[Miyamai Moka] Progress Is Totally Hopeless [MV]

My progress is absolutely terrible, GYARI.

This piece features a sound that lingers with a jazzy aftertaste and a light, upbeat rhythm.

Composed by GYARI and released in December 2024, it humorously portrays a theme many can relate to: being swamped by deadlines and tasks yet drifting into escapism because motivation just won’t come.

As you listen, you can’t help but see yourself in it and end up laughing.

It’s recommended for when you’re tired from work or studying and need a change of pace.
