Band-sound Vocaloid Song Special [Rock]

We call making music on a computer “DTM,” but that doesn’t only refer to electronic music with programmed synths.

You can use various sound sources or record live instruments, and before you know it, you can complete a full band sound right inside your computer.

So in this article, I’d like to introduce Vocaloid songs that focus on band-style sound!

They’re all wonderful tracks!

I’m sure you’ll find a new favorite.

Vocaloid Band-Sound Special [Rock] (61–70)

A song whose slightly old-fashioned rhythm and the author’s signature, idiosyncratic turns of phrase become addictively catchy.

The lyrics can also be heard as an indirect love song: though not particularly positive about life itself, they express a resolve to live for “you.”

hindrance; obstruction; nuisance; in the way; disturbancesyudou

Syudou is a Vocaloid producer who creates highly original songs with a distinctive, sharp-edged style.

Among them, “Jama” (Nuisance) is a track where that individuality truly explodes, and on Nico Nico Douga it became syudou’s first video to surpass 100,000 views.

Hatsune Miku’s slightly cold, finely tuned vocal timbre and the dry drum sound perfectly match the lyrical worldview.

Titled “March of the Mad,” a name that might even feel a bit ominous, this piece first impresses with its “march” element.

Its catchy, march-like drive and stylish momentum spark curiosity about what kind of march is unfolding.

Just when you think the imposing melody will continue, it shifts to something more pop in character—an unpredictable, highly engaging composition with remarkably interesting development.

I Want to Date Anyone / Kagamine Len — I Don’t Care Who, Somebody Go Out With Me! / feat. Takyu Shonen (TakyuP)

It’s an extremely lighthearted song that, just like the title says, is about “I don’t care who— I just want to date someone.” Truly as-is, it keeps belting out a heartfelt cry of wanting to be in a relationship with someone, anyone.

Though it’s a short track at just over a minute, it’s a fun number that lets listeners, singers, and performers alike laugh out loud and make a joyful ruckus.

“Impostor Gengar” [Kagamine Rin & Hatsune Miku Original PV]

A song that sings about the lonely way of life of “me,” who keeps running away and lives quietly in someone else’s shadow.

In contrast to the dark and lonely lyrics, the music is noisy and clattering, with call-and-response shouts and handclaps, making it fun and uplifting to listen to.

"Sound" song by Hatsune Miku

This song was posted shortly after Vocaloid was released, yet Miku’s voice is easy to make out.

With gentle yet powerful lyrics that give a quiet push to those of us living our everyday lives, and a slightly husky vocal that’s pleasant on the ears, it’s a refreshing rock number.

The interplay between the left and right guitars is fantastic, so I recommend listening with earphones.

It’s a track by Kairiki Bear, a popular Vocaloid producer known for songs like “Kanzen Chouaku Lolita Complex.” The video was released in 2019.

It’s a character song from the game “SIX SICKS,” and there’s also a version sung by voice actors Kensho Ono and Daisuke Namikawa, so be sure to check that out too.
