Melt, a track woven from a beautiful piano melody and Hatsune Miku’s freely expressive vocals, supported the early VOCALOID scene.

The piano that carries the main melody blends seamlessly with programmed instruments and digital sounds, opening up new possibilities for the keyboard.
This hit, which had a major influence on later VOCALOID works and musicians, also inspired Kenshi Yonezu to enter the world of Vocaloid.
