You won’t be able to tear your ears away from its spiky, abrasive sound! It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Yugika, also known for “Eureka Replica” and “Caprice Cast,” released in July 2023.

The downer, moody worldview is incredibly cool and totally addictive.

The arrangement, laden with distortion and noise, makes you want to blast it at full volume.

The heaviness of the low end and that thumping, pressing feel are top-notch, too.

With lyrics that pursue “proof of existence,” it’s a thought-provoking, stoic work.

It’s a signature work by Vocaloid producer KuwagataP, released in 2009.

The lyrics sing of lingering attachment to a loved one who’s gone, and while the tempo is driving, it feels like it’s expressing an outpouring of emotion.

The result blends coolness with sentimentality.

Though time has passed since its release, it remains one of Vocaloid’s classics and is still frequently chosen for cover performances and “utatte mita” videos.
