[For Men] Mix Voice Practice Songs: Reference Tracks to Help You Hit High Notes (61–70)
Lovers AgainEXILE
Released in January 2007 as EXILE’s 22nd single.
Speaking of EXILE’s ATSUSHI, he’s now practically the poster child for male singers who use mixed voice! This is a track where you can enjoy a very beautiful, falsetto-leaning mixed voice.
Not limited to this song, EXILE’s tracks generally don’t require extremely high ranges, making them ideal practice material for achieving a clear mixed voice.
parabolaOfisharu Higedan Dism
Among J-POP bands, Official HIGE DANDism stands out for songs that somehow evoke elements of Black music.
The vocalist, Satoshi Fujihara, is known for having a very high voice.
Their track “Parabola” showcases Fujihara’s soaring high tones; while its overall range isn’t extremely wide at mid1 F to hi D, it frequently hits hi A# and hi C, making it a perfect piece for building endurance in your mixed voice.
rainbowFujifaburikku
Fujifabric, the legendary band that was hugely active during the Heisei era.
Even after the vocalist Shima passed away, they continued their activities, but they went on hiatus in 2025.
Many of you might feel a lingering attachment and be motivated to sing their songs yourselves.
The track I recommend is Niji (Rainbow).
While the song largely stays in the low-to-mid register, the chorus brings in higher notes.
It has a smooth overall feel, but the highest note reaches hi F#—quite high—and a mixed voice is required toward the end of the chorus.
Shot In The DarkBOWWOW
VOW WOW is a band boasting the highest level of polish in Japan’s rock scene.
Their brand of hard rock—both instrumentally and vocally—meets world-class standards, earning high praise from dedicated rock aficionados at home and abroad.
Among their songs, the one I particularly recommend as a reference for mixed voice is Shot In The Dark.
The mixed voice, which interweaves shouts while maintaining thickness, is extremely rare among Japanese singers.
If you want to master a genuine mixed voice, be sure to study vocalist Genki Hitomi’s technique.
Who am I?TK from RIN TO SHITE SIGURE
TK, the frontman of Ling tosite sigure, is an artist exceptionally adept at the high register.
His falsetto and mixed voice are among the most powerful in the industry.
Among his works, Dare Ga Tame stands out as a prime reference for mixed voice.
The piece is consistently arranged in a high range, featuring frequent use of falsetto and mixed voice throughout.
While it’s a highly challenging song, making it a practice piece is recommended, as it helps build endurance in the high range.
qualiaUVERworld
UVERworld’s 16th single, released in September 2010.
Analyzing vocalist TAKUYA∞’s singing reveals that he skillfully uses a mix voice with very smooth connection to chest voice, tightly adducted vocal folds, and minimal breathiness.
At a quick listen, you might find it hard to distinguish it from his chest voice.
This is another selection geared toward advanced singers, but try practicing to produce a mix voice that doesn’t become a “throaty” sound by engaging your abdominal muscles properly and controlling the cricothyroid muscle effectively.
Perfect-Sense DreamerONE OK ROCK
This is ONE OK ROCK’s fourth single, released in February 2010.
Taka’s vocals give an impression of being slightly husky and a bit distorted, and the very edgy, gritty mixed voice you can hear in this track is truly excellent.
This gritty quality is likely produced by increasing the speed of the breath when phonating, which sets it apart from the soft, falsetto-leaning mixed voice often used by R&B singers.
For those aiming to be rock vocalists who want to strengthen their high register, this makes an excellent practice piece.
Try singing with your abs firmly engaged to reduce your abdominal surface area, keep the airflow fast, and avoid squeezing the throat too much.
