I highly recommend “Canopus” to anyone who loves band-driven sounds.

It’s a track by NayutalieN, known for digital-rock style and catchy melodies, included on the 2020 album “Object N from Planet Nayutan.” The energy hits from the very intro, and the contrast with the heartbreak-tinged, bittersweet lyrics really gets you.

If there’s something you can’t forget or you want to move on, this song will give you that extra push.

Whether you’re listening alone or with friends, you’re guaranteed to get fired up!

When you want to liven up the mood with a happy Vocaloid song, “Stellar Night Orchestra” is perfect.

This piece was written by Vocaloid producer Atsu Mizuno for the in-game unit Wonderlands×Showtime in a smartphone game.

Since it’s a song about the joy of meeting your friends, it’s also great for expressing gratitude.

And because it was originally sung by multiple people, it’s fun to sing together with friends at karaoke.

Give it a try and sing it with energy!

While it uses many sounds reminiscent of acoustic instruments, the overall impression is endlessly lively and fun.

The sound, built from layers of many different elements, offers new discoveries every time you listen back.

It’s a perfect track for sharing the fun—singing together at karaoke, making a ruckus with friends, and the like.

New scab, get eaten by a pet.Ie no ura de manbō ga shinderu P

Just from the composer’s name and the song title, it might seem like a joke, but the track itself is very up-tempo and, strangely enough, quite pleasant to the ear.

The lyrics lay out 48 curses devised by a vengeful person.

It’s a highly impactful song and extremely popular as material for parody versions and cover-singing videos.

LokiMikito P

Mikito-P’s 2018 track “Roki” is an emblematic Vocaloid song of the late 2010s and will be especially familiar to people in their twenties.

Featuring a passionate dance beat, its exhilarating sound pairs perfectly with the lyrics, making it a guaranteed crowd-pleaser at karaoke.

The repeated phrases in the chorus make it a rock number you’ll find yourself humming along to, so it’s great for drives as well.

How about enjoying some fun time through music with this Vocaloid song?

DECO*27, a leading figure in the Vocaloid scene with numerous signature songs, released “Volteccer” in 2023 as an original track for the Pokémon feat.

Hatsune Miku Project VOLTAGE collaboration.

Opening with sound inspired by Pokémon battle BGM, the track unfolds with a driving, high-speed dance beat.

The lyrics, themed around Pikachu’s moves, also convey the world of the work.

With playful touches like the sound effect of throwing a Poké Ball, it’s a uniquely fun Vocaloid song.

Coral in a miniature gardenDenporu P

Denpol-P, who has released many rock-style tracks, wrote Hakoniwa no Coral specifically for the in-game music unit Wonderlands×Showtime.

Set on a coastline awash with a beautiful sunset, the song portrays inner conflict and struggle, yet the determination to keep looking forward.

A highlight is how the sound gradually grows more intense as the mood becomes more positive.

Also, listen for its unique use of figurative expressions.
