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.

From here on, I’m going to introduce a bunch of wonderful songs performed by the popular VOCALOID, GUMI.

GUMI was developed based on the voice of Megumi Nakajima, who works as a voice actress and singer, and is characterized by her human-like vocal quality.

You might have the impression that she’s mainly used for rock-style tracks, but of course that’s not all.

They’re all masterpieces where various Vocaloid producers let their musical sensibilities explode.

There are so many that it’s hard to introduce them all.

This article is updated from time to time, so even if you’ve already checked it once, please come back and take another look!

Izunami Subjugation War Chronicles Jips

This is one of the works in the “Heisei Project” series.

It sings about how defeat becomes nourishment.

The song itself is great, of course, but the music video is also very compelling and a lot of fun to watch.

The end of the chorus is very catchy, so you’ll feel like singing along.

“Natsuko,” a song by the Sapporo indie rock band Gumi, is a summer track released two years ago.

Although the band itself isn’t very well-known, this song precisely captures the fleeting nature of summer; just by listening, you instantly long for the season, and it’s a track that can move you to tears.

Justice crusherGUMI

Justice-Crushing GUMI

Wouldn’t it be interesting to cover a Vocaloid song with a band? The unison riff between the guitar and bass in the intro seems tough, but the finger movements are like basic exercises, so just memorize the shapes.

The rest is basically power chords and root notes.

For the music box section, a guitar arpeggio can create a similar atmosphere.

RyuPi – Wrist-cutting [GUMI / Vocaloid]

Wrist-cut GUMI

A Vocaloid song about wrist-cutting as a way of expressing stress caused by mental illnesses such as depression.

Set to a punk rock track, its lyrics carefully depict the feelings that lead to wrist-cutting, drawing attention from young people who are actually engaging in self-harm.

It’s a cool, lively rock song featuring GUMI’s vocals.

The arrangement is excellent and fits the song’s world perfectly.

I think it’s a wonderful track that captures a wistful, melancholic feeling.

It’s a great song and a timeless classic that makes me want to listen to it over and over without getting tired of it.
