I often watch gameplay/commentary videos.Kyou inu
The timbre, like a video game sound effect, is really cute! This track was released in 2016 by Mr.
Kyouinu.
True to its title, it’s a love song themed around game streamers who are active on video platforms.
It makes you wonder if your favorite game streamer might be thinking the same kinds of things…
FOUR BEAT FOR YOUnasu P
It’s got a techno low-end and a super “rap” vibe that connoisseurs will love.
This track features Hatsune Miku.
The piano that comes in partway through is so stylish.
Translate the title and you get “Four Beat for You.” The feel of the lyrics is irresistible, too.
With powerful, addictive vocals, it’s the kind of song you’ll want to put on when you want to dive into something.
It’s so comfortable you might end up getting lost in FOUR BEAT FOR YOU itself (lol).
Be sure to enjoy it thoroughly on headphones!
LIFEmayrock
This is a lo-fi hip hop track notable for its resounding piano tones.
Created by Vocaloid producer mayrock, it was released in 2021.
The track’s production has a sense of depth that also conveys elements of ambient music—truly resonant.
The lyrics portray the creeping sense of impatience that quietly accumulates in daily life, striking right at the heart.
Many listeners will likely relate to this melancholy.
When you’re longing for someone to stay by your side, this song might just save you.
Dear Sir/Madam,cast (medical plaster cast)
The slightly retro feel of the melody and the raspy vocals fit together wonderfully.
It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Gibusu, released in 2021.
The sound has ties to funk music, and the striking horn section really stands out.
That steady, understated flow pairs incredibly well with Kafu.
It even makes me want to sing it myself.
And the lyrics are something students in particular can probably relate to.
It might be a good song to listen to when you want to take your time thinking about the future.
SaloonR Sound Design
R Sound Design, also known for working under the name usugeP.
The first piece he produced using Harui is “Saloon.” Harui is a voice library that excels at rap, and in this work, R Sound Design has successfully brought out its full potential.
Give it a listen while paying attention to the skillful flows and rhymes, as well as the stylish lyrics—elements unlike anything we’ve heard before.
