Masterpieces sung by MEIKO. Recommended popular Vocaloid songs.

MEIKO debuted in 2004 as the world’s first Japanese-compatible virtual singer software.
She was released three years earlier than Hatsune Miku, who has become synonymous with synthesized vocal libraries.

With the rise of the Vocaloid boom around 2007, MEIKO’s popularity also grew.
Her voice is characterized by a firm core and a slightly mature tone.
