ochatime23.exe91rank/position
This is a track posted in June 2020 by 23.exe, who mainly produces dance music.
It’s literally a song about tea time, and Miku Hatsune’s laid-back rap is just too cute.
The groove is insanely comfortable—almost squirm-inducing—and the flow is addictive.
It seems to be popular with overseas listeners, too.
It’s heartwarming.
I think it fits perfectly not only for a leisurely tea time on days off, but also for a break after work or while sipping a canned coffee.
When you need healing, ‘ochatime’ is the only choice!
