Is there life there?DIVELA
A message song centered on Hatsune Miku that really hits you in the heart.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer DIVELA—who has created hits like “Vocalo Coliseum”—released in 2019.
With its mixture-rock sound that unfolds a grand worldview, it’s moving enough on that alone.
And the lyrics, written from Miku’s perspective, pierce you whether you want them to or not.
By the time it ends, you might find tears naturally streaming down your cheeks.
It’s one of Vocaloid’s masterpieces, and I especially want Vocaloid producers to hear it.

Soldier GirlsFERN PLANET
FERN PLANET was formed in 2017 by SERINA on guitar and vocals and Meiko Yamaguchi on bass and backing vocals.
Haruki Mizuguchi joined once but later left, and the band continued as a duo.
The tight, low register of SERINA’s voice and the beauty of her high tones make for an addictive harmony.
Their rock ’n’ roll sound and poised presence are seriously cool, too.
Although they went on hiatus in December 2019, it seems they’ll continue their musical activities, so here’s hoping they make a comeback.
Saturday nightFISHMANS
Saturday Night has a stylish band sound with a shady vibe that’s seriously cool.
It’s a track by the rock band Fishmans, who boast a long career since 1987 and enjoy strong support from music fans overseas.
The lyrics and composition were handled by guitarist Kensuke Kojima, who now works as a designer.
The outro is insanely cool.
The sound carries a kind of unstable, floating feel that might mirror the woozy sensation after pulling an all-nighter and enjoying your Saturday.
It just makes you want to surrender yourself to it.

Try listening on your own or sharing it with close friends to help turn up the heat this summer.
