2D Dream FeverPolyphonicBranch1rank/position
Some of you might associate Vocaloid songs with “mix-up rock full of dizzying twists and turns.” PolyphonicBranch (aka Polipho) released the track “2D Dream Fever” in 2012.
By 2015, it had surpassed one million views on Niconico, making it a massively popular song.
The vocal lines—extremely hard for human singers to imitate—embody the quintessential “this is Vocaloid!” feel.
You’re overwhelmed by the sheer power the whole time, and before you know it, you’ve been swept all the way to the outro.
It’s also been novelized, so check it out if you’re interested!
Love × Love WhistlePolyphonicBranch2rank/position
It’s a hardcore, quintessentially Vocaloid-style track that practically forces you awake.
The groove and tempo are so great that I can’t help putting it on repeat.
It’s perfect for when you’re in the mood to have fun today! The Vocaloid tuning is so well done that it sounds natural, hardly like a synthetic voice at all.
Dear me, who couldn’t become anyone.PolyphonicBranch3rank/position
This is a rock number that sings about being tormented by self-denial.
The song is by PolyphonicBranch, also known as Polifo, and was released in 2019.
With a powerful guitar sound and Hatsune Miku’s clear, transparent vocals in splendid harmony, the lyrics reflect feelings of resignation and farewell.
It’s a song you should turn to precisely when you feel you’ve lost your sense of purpose and are burdened at heart.
It will surely prompt you to reflect on your own way of life.
Less than humanPolyphonicBranch4rank/position
Let me introduce a dark track by PolyphonicBranch, who has also made waves with major-label full album releases: “Less Than Human.” This piece depicts the murky emotions of a girl trapped in self-loathing.
The drum and bass sound and the restrained, understated vocal delivery seem to express the darkness of the heart.
Also pay close attention to the spoken lines scattered throughout the song and the comically tinged melodic lines.
Pumpkin SyndromePolyphonicBranch5rank/position
PolyphonicBranch’s “Pumpkin Syndrome” is a unique song themed around Halloween.
Its delicate and diverse instrumentation colors the season and captivates listeners, while the light, upbeat groove and pleasantly shifting time signatures further enhance its entertainment value.
In particular, the call-and-response between Kagamine Rin and Kagamine Len grabs the listener’s attention, and the storylike lyrics create a fantastical atmosphere.
The tale woven by the costumed characters offers both fresh surprises and a sense of familiarity.
It’s a perfect track for a party with friends on Halloween night.
DownerPolyphonicBranch6rank/position
As the title suggests, it’s a very downer-style Vocaloid song.
It’s a track by PolyphonicBranch, a Vocaloid producer who has even made a major debut, released in 2020.
From the intro, a dark atmosphere starts to seep in.
However, the chorus is incredibly catchy, and you can really get into it.
The choice of words in the lyrics has a great sound to them, making you want to sing it yourself—that’s another charm.
The lyrics dwell on negative emotions, but I can’t help empathizing with these feelings.
Rétromania RhapsodyPolyphonicBranch7rank/position
This is a song written as the theme for Jūmonji Atari, a character appearing in the mobile game “#Compass: Combat Providence Analysis System.” Since the character is set as a boy who loves video games, the song features many phrases that evoke games.
Let’s meet in our dreams.PolyphonicBranch8rank/position
Because VOCALOID is a machine, its voice inevitably sounds somewhat mechanical.
However, Miku’s singing in this song has a very natural tone, and especially at the beginning, it’s so convincing that you might believe it’s a human singing.
Rondo of the Sun and MoonPolyphonicBranch9rank/position
This is a song by Megurine Luka and Hatsune Miku.
It’s a work by PolyphonicBranch, who has also made a major debut as a Vocaloid producer, and it was released in 2010.
It’s a mature love song that strings together messages of love intense enough to feel “scary,” and listening to it stirs something deep in your chest.
The grand, fast-paced sound is also striking.
Still, the melody is catchy, so it feels great to sing.
Try to be mindful of your delivery so you can express the imagery the song carries.
girl’s self-harmPolyphonicBranch10rank/position
A grungy Vocaloid track with cool, distorted guitar.
It’s a song by PolyphonicBranch (aka Porifoi/Polypho), released in 2013.
As the title suggests, it sings from the perspective of a girl who turns to self-harm…but scars aren’t only the ones you can see, right? This rock number also delves into the darkness of the heart.
