How about a dark Vocaloid track where raw emotions collide? It’s a song by Fuyuu, a Vocaloid producer known for a gothic aesthetic, released in September 2025.
It dropped simultaneously with a version sung by Yoshizuki Sanbo.
The intense sound from the very intro is awesome! The lyrics center on themes of “sin” and “judgment,” expressing a cry of the heart seeking freedom while being hurt.
The contrast between taut tension and aching poignancy is sure to seize your heart.

Its unstable pitch lines, surging synths, and irresistibly dance-inducing progression captivate listeners.
The lyrics, reflecting the struggles of living, together with the dystopian-style music video, further deepen the song’s dark worldview.
Its addictive pull stimulates emotions buried deep within and compels you to confront your inner self.
Sleepy Hollowzensen × sibitto
This is a track themed around Halloween night, depicting a world where the hedonism and deception of a masquerade ball intersect.
Co-created by zensen and sibitto, it was released in October 2025.
The sound is fantastic—a fusion of bouncy, electro-swing flair with the heavy low-end of a UK bassline.
While showcasing KAITO’s rich mid-to-low range, it balances eeriness with splendor.
The lyrics, inspired by the Headless Horseman, wrap sharp black humor around the superficiality of human relationships.
Highly recommended when you want to hype up the vibe with stylish music or soak in the Halloween atmosphere!

“Chisosa” by ¿? koto shimon, released on May 25, 2024, is a downer-style electronic dance tune.
It’s a collaboration with Sanrio’s mixed-media project “Mai Mai Maigoen,” created with the character Daigorou as its motif.

It’s a highly horror-tinged Vocaloid song that sends chills through your ears and down your back.
VampireDECO*27
“I can’t forget that person.” This masterpiece overlays the thirst of love with a vampire’s thirst.

Rockwell’s arrangement, who handled the composition, truly shines.
The lyrics strikingly portray a girl’s tumultuous feelings—unable to suppress her longing for the other, wanting to take, to monopolize, yet wondering if that desire is a sin.
With its catchy melody and up-tempo rhythm, it’s an irresistible number that makes you want to dance.
