Connecting the stars40mP × Hifumi (12340mP)
A song brimming with hope that makes you feel, “There’s no time to stand still!” This work is a collaboration between 40mP and Hifumi.
Released in July 2023, it’s an original track written for Leo/need, a unit from the mobile game Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat.
Hatsune Miku.
The sparkling band sound and humming seem to lift your spirits, and Miku’s bright vocals fit the lyrics perfectly.
2D Dream FeverPolyphonicBranch
Some of you might associate Vocaloid songs with “mix-up rock full of dizzying twists and turns.” PolyphonicBranch (aka Polipho) released the track “2D Dream Fever” in 2012.
By 2015, it had surpassed one million views on Niconico, making it a massively popular song.
The vocal lines—extremely hard for human singers to imitate—embody the quintessential “this is Vocaloid!” feel.
You’re overwhelmed by the sheer power the whole time, and before you know it, you’ve been swept all the way to the outro.
It’s also been novelized, so check it out if you’re interested!
Wanderlustsasakure.UK
This song is by sasakure.UK, one of the leading Vocaloid producers who has continued to be active at the forefront of the Vocaloid scene and has also worked on pieces like “Tondemo Wonders” and “Future Eve.” It was released in February 2009.
The work is characterized by its unpredictable song structure and avant-garde sound that incorporates chiptune.
Even back then, it already had that distinct “sasakure.UK sound,” which is great.
Even now, long after its release, it still feels “new.” A remake version was uploaded in 2019, so if you haven’t heard it yet, definitely check it out!
Ultra Super Mega HotMedmia
The speedy melody and the thumping, driving bassline are irresistible.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Medomia—who has released numerous hits like “Zettai Teitai Mechakirai-ya”—and it was published in October 2020.
It also participated in the TOP100 ranking of VocaColle Autumn 2022.
This high-energy electronic tune delivers a real rush and lifts your mood.
I especially love how the chorus suddenly bursts into full-on excitement—it’s so fun.
The vocal work, which unfolds like a back-and-forth between Miku, Una, and Kafu, is fantastic too!
atriumR Sound Design
This is a translucent-sounding Vocaloid track that draws you in with its sophisticated guitar tones.
It’s by R Sound Design, the Vocaloid producer also known for works like “Teikoku Shoujo,” and it was released in 2018.
The side-to-side swaying arrangement feels incredibly pleasant.
The sound image pairs perfectly with v flower’s rounded vocals—it makes you want to close your eyes and listen.
If you want the audio, it’s included on the album “Delights,” so consider purchasing it!
Violence TriggerHachioji-P
A song by Hachioji-P, a Vocaloid producer who also works under aliases like 8#Prince and P*Light.
The imbalance of noisy guitars and heavy instrumentation set against a pop melody intertwines with the deranged lyrics to create a unique world.
With cute vocals, lyrics that take an extreme direction, and weighty performance each standing on their own, it’s a track you’ll want to listen to again and again.
MOViNG ONOsanzi
It’s a solid, full-fledged EDM track that sounds like it could be played at overseas music festivals as-is.
The song is by the Vocaloid producer Osanzi—also known for “LiFE” and “Dance With Me”—and was released in March 2023.
It was an entry for BOCALOID Collection (Bokakore) Spring 2023.
The thumping, booming low end feels incredibly satisfying.
Another highlight is the oriental section that incorporates the timbres of traditional Japanese instruments.
Miku and Rin’s crisp vocal work also fits the style perfectly.
With its message of “Just go your own way,” this is an uplifting Vocaloid track that gives you courage and boosts your energy.
