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.
Music writer / guitarist / Certified web writing practitionerHoshino Takashi
Drawing on over 30 years of experience with guitars and bands since my high school days, I specialize in music-related articles and have handled many feature pieces to date. While my tastes lean toward genres like hard rock and heavy metal since I first picked up the guitar, I make a point of listening to a wide range of styles, both Japanese and Western, on a daily basis. I began working as a freelance writer in 2018. I hold a Web Writing Practical Certification, and in addition to writing, I’m also studying video editing. In my private life, I’m raising an elementary school child and stay active while supporting their extracurriculars, such as parkour and dance.

The Vocaloid scene is where countless Vocaloid producers and creators are active every day.

In this article, we’ve put together a collection of cool Vocaloid tracks that are being released practically daily.

From classics to the latest releases, we’ve picked songs purely based on one thing: how cool they are—regardless of genre.

These hot selections will slice through your frustration and blow away those gloomy feelings.

Be sure to read to the end and find your new favorite track!

If It's a Double Suicide, Do It After the Piano Breaks / SLAVE.V-V-R feat. Musical Isotope Haru

If it's a double suicide, then after the piano is brokenSLAVE V-V-R

Starting activities in 2014, SLAVE.V-V-R is a Vocaloid producer known for signature tracks like “I’ll Punch You 8759632145 Times with This Piano.” Released on April 9, 2023, “If We’re Going to Die Together, Let It Be After the Piano Breaks” is a number whose piano intro leaves an impact with its sense of dissonance.

Its complex song structure and relentless, driving melody create an addictive quality that makes you want to listen again and again.

It’s a brisk, exhilarating Vocaloid track that highlights piano phrases—unsurprising given the artist’s background attending jazz piano classes from a young age—and we encourage you to pay special attention to them.

tearsMARETU

It’s a Vocaloid track with a unique atmosphere where coolness and wistfulness intertwine.

Created by the popular Vocaloid producer MARETU, known for works like “White Happy” and “Uminaoshi,” it was released in 2021.

The rhythmic composition featuring chiptune-like synth sounds is striking.

And the lyrics make you want to dive into theories about what exactly the protagonist is trying to do.

Whether you unravel the meaning or simply let yourself drown in the sound, it’s a high-sense number.

Mane Mane Psychotropickairiki bea

This is a song that draws you in right away with the cool, fast piano at the start.

The lyrics are full of onomatopoeia and repeated sounds, making them catchy and easy to remember.

It ends in a suggestive way that makes you think, “I hope there’s a sequel.” Be sure to listen all the way to the end.

[With Chinese Subtitles] [Kagamine Len] Ugly Guy Documentary [Original]

Ugly guy documentarytakkyū shōnen

Somehow, it reminds me of the story of “Densha Otoko.” The melody is, if anything, bright and cute, but it’s a cool song about the way of life where, even if the person you like doesn’t look your way, you keep trying.

It makes me feel like I should do my best, too.

at the mercy (of); as (someone/something) pleasesr-906

At the mercy / Hatsune Miku

at the mercy (of); as (someone/something) pleasesr-906

A song by Vocaloid producer r-906, who began making music inspired by Clair de lune by Claude Debussy, the French composer renowned worldwide.

The track took first place in the rankings at The VOCALOID Collection ~2022 Spring~ held in April 2022, and its Japanese-style worldview themed around kyudo (Japanese archery) and Hyakunin Isshu leaves a strong impression.

The hooky, drum’n’bass-like beats and the fusion of Japanese and Western elements create an addictive quality that makes you want to keep listening.

It’s a cool number that could be called the cutting edge of ever-evolving Vocaloid music.

Hiiragi Magnetite – Puppet Asura / Star Realm

Puppet AsuraHiiragi Magunetaito

A Vocaloid track by Hiiragi Magnetite, an artist who learned composition using Nintendo DS software, went through band activities, and then began working as a Vocaloid producer.

It’s the artist’s 11th song to enter the Hall of Fame, and its EDM sound that opens with an unsettling melody immediately catches the ear.

The mechanical four-on-the-floor beat and looming synths, together with the hooky melody, draw listeners into its world.

With a melodious arrangement appearing in the latter half that’s equally catchy, it’s a Vocaloid number that keeps you captivated from start to finish.
