This is a rock number charged with intense energy that releases pent-up emotions as “anger.” Popular Vocaloid producers Noz.

and Iori Kanzaki teamed up to create it, and it was released in February 2026.

The lyrics and composition are by Iori Kanzaki, with arrangement by Noz.

The twin vocals of Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin amplify each other’s heat, and their vocal work pairs perfectly with the band sound.

On Iori Kanzaki’s channel, there’s also a version sung by Kanzaki themselves, so be sure to listen to that as well.

Withered and dried, traces of a dream / Ubagara Roku ft. Hatsune Miku
Withered and dry, after the dreamNEW!Ubanaroku

A rock number that captures the nihilism of growing up—the way something you once loved with all your heart starts to look faded before you know it.

Created by Vocaloid producer Roku Uhaka, this piece sharply portrays the protagonist’s feelings as they confront their cooling passion, carried by an unpretentious guitar sound.

If you’ve ever “compared your past self with who you are now and sighed,” you’ll surely relate.

Take your time and give it a careful listen.

If you want to hear gritty, hard-hitting rock with roaring guitars, this track is for you! It’s a work by ime44, released in May 2024.

The harmony between Hatsune Miku’s clear, transparent vocals and the heavy, grinding guitar sound is striking.

The lyrics convey the struggles of a protagonist searching for their true self.

I can relate to the feelings of wrestling with one’s identity.

It’s a song I’d recommend to anyone who’s in the midst of a journey of self-discovery.
