[Rock] Easy Band-Style Vocaloid Songs for Beginners [Simple]

The Boy of Defeatkemu

[HD] Defeated Boy [GUMI Original Song] - KEMU VOXX

If you love Vocaloid rock, you’ve probably dreamed of “playing this song with a band!!” Every track by kemu is seriously cool.

Let’s perform ‘Haiboku no Shounen’ live and get the crowd hyped.

The rhythm is an up-tempo 8-beat typical of rock numbers, so play with full power and intensity.

In the pre-chorus (B section), aim for a laid-back, behind-the-beat feel with a slight hold, then shift into a sense of speed for the chorus.

The rhythm pattern in the instrumental break is a bit tricky, so if the drum fills are hard to nail, try switching to your own arrangement.

To bring out the song’s power, it could also be great to plan a performance approach for the whole band.

If you are going to jumpOmoi

If You Were to Jump / Hatsune Miku

It’s a high-impact, chest-thumping number! Created by the music unit Omoi and released in 2017.

An animated MV was unveiled in 2020, and its high quality became a hot topic.

It’s a message song addressed to a friend on the verge of taking their own life, but rather than conveying despair, it radiates a sense of vitality—an emotional atmosphere.

The original track is a mix that incorporates synth sounds, but you can still reproduce it as a band using just guitar power chords.

The tempo is fast, though, so make sure everyone locks in tightly there.

Planet LoopNayutan Seijin

Nayutan Seijin – Planet Loop (ft. Hatsune Miku) OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

Its trademark is a simple yet ear-catching intro phrase.

The guitar lines are easy but catchy—an arrangement beginners will appreciate.

The bass mostly sticks to root notes, but be careful to mute cleanly during the accent hits, or the track will lose its tight feel.

The drums use a basic pattern of four-on-the-floor kick with offbeat hi-hats, but since the tempo is fast, it’s best to start practicing slowly.

The original vocal key is quite high, so if it’s tough, try lowering it by an octave or make other adjustments and give it a go.

Donut holehachi

Hachi – Donut Hole 2024, HACHI – DONUT HOLE 2024

A track Kenshi Yonezu released during his Vocaloid producer days.

None of the parts are particularly difficult on their own, but the quick tempo makes it easy for a band to fall out of sync, so be careful.

A completely beginner band will need some time to finish it, but by the time you can play it together, you’ll definitely have moved beyond the beginner stage.

You can simplify the tough sections with an arrangement, but steadily practicing to improve is also recommended.

Try choosing the approach that fits your band’s vibe and keep working at it.

Double LariatAgo aniki

[Megurine Luka] Double Lariat [HD]

Speaking of Vocaloid songs, Agoaniki’s “Double Lariat” is an essential classic.

It’s full of easy-to-remember phrases, so it’s great for beginner bands too.

If you’re thinking of starting a Vocaloid band, definitely try performing it.

If the bassline feels difficult, try arranging parts into simple root notes.

The key to playing this song coolly is especially at the end of the pre-chorus: build momentum as a whole band and focus on driving into the chorus.

The song ramps up toward the end, which is exactly why you should play it with care! Do that, and you’ll nail a sharp, awesome band performance!
