Lovely Vocaloid

Band-sound Vocaloid Song Special [Rock]

A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerWakachan Araki
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

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.

Lining up, best regards — Ubana Roku.

A track by Vocaloid producer Rokuhana Uka, who has gained popularity for lyrics focused on the emotions of junior and senior high school girls and a guitar rock–driven sound.

Chururira Chururira Daddadda! – Takeaki Wada (KurageP) / Chururira Chururira Daddadda! – KurageP

Chururira Chururira Daddadda! Kurage-P

In the nursery rhyme, there’s a line that goes “I’ll tell the teacher.” You could say this song is a modern version of that nursery rhyme.

It pairs a lively, cheerful band sound with lyrics that, in stark contrast, depict the murky, tangled human relationships within a very dark classroom.

The appeal of this song is something you won’t truly grasp until you’ve listened to it.

This one track has captivated many—give it a listen and judge for yourself.
