A downer-style Yuki Uta song with a burbling, throbbing bass that’s addictive.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer emon, also known for “being loved,” released in May 2024.
It calmly weaves the inner feelings of a heart starved for love, letting you taste fear and empathy at the same time.
Yuki’s husky vocals also match the mood and lyrics perfectly.
Since emon has made many works with this kind of atmosphere, if you’re into this worldview, be sure to dig into the other tracks as well.
For hungry animalsoishikuru meronpan
The song “For Hungry Animals,” included on Oishikuru Melonpan’s mini-album Eyes, is striking for its aggressive soundscape themed around the complexity of human relationships and emotional disconnection.
The band’s uniquely cool and diverse sonic approach is sure to pierce your heart.
By the time it ends, you’ll likely find yourself reexamining your relationship with yourself and the people you care about.

There are probably many people who like songs with a gothic atmosphere.
This piece, created by the Vocaloid producer Kisara—also known for works like “LIMITED QUEEN”—was released in 2020.
Starting with a suspicious, eerie intro, the song unfolds as if it’s tumbling forward.
Mikoto’s emotional vocals deepen the narrative quality of the lyrics.
It’s a little scary, but it also stirs your curiosity, making you wonder, “What’s going to happen next?” Highly recommended to listen at a high volume!
Crazy Party Night-Pumpkins Strike Backkyarī pamyu pamyu
This piece expresses the fun of Halloween through music.
Released in September 2015, the song is characterized by a unique atmosphere that blends horror and cuteness.
The lyrics incorporate Halloween-themed elements like “sweets” and a “magical night,” creating a richly fantastical world.
In the music video, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and a group of zombies throw a party in eccentric costumes, resulting in a work where horror and a pop sensibility coexist.
Thanks to its catchy sound, it was widely used in 2024 as a track for twin dances during Halloween.
Embraced as a Halloween song, the work helped popularize and cement the genre of Halloween music within Japan’s music scene.
Q&Ishitoo
What is my true self, my true feelings? This song is infused with that sentiment.
Created by Shitoo and released in December 2022, it features philosophical lyrics brought to life by the voices of CeVIO AI and Harui.
It feels like a snapshot of everyday life, yet with each listen, deeper meanings unfold—a mysterious charm.
The distinctive worldbuilding is uniquely Shitoo’s, who also handles the illustrations and video.
The music video, born from the fusion of intricate visuals and sound, is a must-see.
It’s a track I especially hope teens in the midst of their youth will listen to.
Imaginary Forestjin
This song, produced by Jin, who was born in Hokkaido in 1990, is used as a theme for an anime for which he also wrote the script.
The part of the song that uses the Canon progression is the chorus.
Although the Canon progression doesn’t usually evoke a very intense image, depending on the rhythm and melody, it’s sometimes used in climactic choruses.
It’s impressive how the Canon progression can work both gently and intensely like this.
That’s probably why so many songs are composed using the Canon progression.
The Magic of Christmassutopuri
