Mosaic RollDECO*27
DECO*27’s “Mosaic Roll” has long been beloved by Vocaloid fans.
The A and B sections use repeating chord progressions, and the same guitar riff is played multiple times, so it should be easy for beginners to learn.
It’s mid-tempo, so the drums and bass shouldn’t feel “fast and difficult.” You can recreate the intro guitar riff by combining delay and reverb effects.
The final chorus modulates, so if you’re playing power chords, you can handle it by shifting up just a half step.
Mélusinen-buna
The nostalgic melody stirs my emotions.
It’s a song by n-buna, a Vocaloid producer who’s active as the composer for the band Yorushika, released in 2015.
It feels as if n-buna’s signature, transparent sonic texture seeps all the way into the depths of the heart.
Every single word of the lyrics seems beautiful, and by the time the song ends, it really brings tears to your eyes.
The guitar riff in particular doesn’t require any special techniques, so it should be approachable even for beginners.
For the bass and drums, aim for a more relaxed performance to convey the song’s emotional nuance.

Meltryo
If you’re going to do a Vocaloid cover band, you should definitely include the iconic classic “Melt,” which is practically synonymous with Vocaloid songs.
The key to this track is creating a fresh, breezy vibe.
Since the lead part will be handled by the keyboard, the keyboardist should spend a bit more time than usual on sound design.
The original drum pattern is tricky, so try arranging it to make it easier to play.
Once the whole band gets comfortable with the performance, add backing vocals to raise the quality even further.
It’ll be perfect when the sparkling feel of the song really comes through in the sound!
nuisance; pest; someone who gets in the wayDECO*27
Let’s play a cute love song and get the crowd hyped! This track by DECO*27, a Vocaloid producer who’s been at the forefront of the scene for many years, was released in 2014.
The lyrics capture an unwavering, straight-from-the-heart kind of love—so exciting! While the song features synth phrases, I think it can still be performed with just guitar, bass, and drums if you omit those parts.
There aren’t any particularly technical sections, either.
If anything, the key is how much the vocalist can bring out the cuteness.
Show me your flawed selfkoyori
Koyori’s “Show Me Your Flaws,” which portrays someone trying to accept themselves despite anxiety and doubt, carries a warmth that gently stays close to the heart.
Hatsune Miku’s calm voice cradles the wavering emotions and seems to quietly push you forward.
The song opens with vocals and guitar, and the gradually building sound conveys a sense of passion.
The guitar focuses on cutting with many repetitions, becoming smoother to play as you grow accustomed to it.
Much of the bass and drums can be performed with basic patterns, and locking in together as a band is part of the fun.
It’s guitar rock that turns the time spent playing into a moment to reflect on yourself.
Beast DanceWada Takeaki
It’s a highly addictive rock number whose chorus phrases will stick in your head.
The track, by Takeaki Wada—also known as KurageP—was released in 2017.
The ensemble of the shady, cool guitar riff, the gritty, grinding bass, and the drum groove that sits squarely in the middle is irresistible.
You’ll notice it best on earphones or headphones, but if you’re going to cover it on guitar, start by practicing the left-channel part.
It’s the backing part, so it’s simpler than the right channel.
Chill, fluffy Sea-of-Trees girlishiburo
An upbeat rock number with an irresistible rough band sound and a thrilling sense of speed.
It’s a signature song by Ishifuro—also the guitarist of the rock band Necry Talkie—released in 2011.
The lyrics, depicting a negatively-inclined female protagonist, claw at that feeling of moratorium.
The guitar can be reproduced with octave techniques, and the bass can fully convey the song’s atmosphere with simple root playing.
Play the loud parts with full force and stop cleanly where it stops—aim for performance with that kind of dynamic contrast in mind.
