It’s no exaggeration to call it a flagship song of the Vocaloid scene.
Created by Vocaloid producer KuroUsa-P, who also heads the music circle WhiteFlame, it was released in 2011 and sparked an explosive boom, especially on Nico Nico Douga.
It was also featured in TV commercials, so even those not familiar with Vocaloid have likely heard it.
The aggressive, high-impact sound with a distinctly Japanese flair will banish any urge to go back to sleep.
Perfect if you want to wake up sharp.
