This is a Vocaloid track with a delightfully crisp tone that makes you want to start dancing.

It’s by the Vocaloid producer Kuritanika, who also created “Apollo” and “Tarante La Musica,” and it was released in June 2023.

If you’re into dance rock, this is a must-listen.

The flow and rhythm of the lyrics feel incredibly satisfying.

And the standout feature of this work is that it’s sung by VOICEVOX Kasukabe Tsumugi.

Since VOICEVOX is software that reads out typed text, it doesn’t actually have a “singing” function.

You can really see Kuritanika’s technical prowess.

Hifumi, a Vocaloid producer known for many rock-style tracks.

His “Nemure Watagashi” is a song that conveys the feelings of a woman who just can’t fall asleep, set to a Japanese-style sound.

As you listen, the structure gradually reveals why she can’t sleep.

It’s also fun how it incorporates relatable details like “being bothered by the sound of cars driving outside” and “the sky starting to get light outside.” They’re points anyone can relate to and nod along with.

Let me introduce The Day of the Alarm, a work whose appeal lies in its powerful, impactful depiction.

This song was created by the band project World Power for the BokaColle 2023 Summer Rookie Ranking, where it won 3rd place.

Its lyrics portray a raging sea and the blaring of alarms.

The way the protagonist’s state of mind seems to synchronize with the unfolding scenes is especially compelling.

The intense, rock-driven sound also conveys the wildness of the imagery—another highlight worth noting.

By the way, the music video presents the song’s story in a manga-based format you can enjoy.

Vocaloid producer Takeaki Wada.

The song he created as the official track for VOCALOID Otomachi Una is “Dotchinanda!” This piece carries a profound message, with lyrics that throw a stone into the pond of conformity pressure and hierarchical social structures.

The more stressed you usually feel, the more likely this song will leave you refreshed after listening.

Another highlight is how it’s peppered with phrases reminiscent of tracks Wada has released in the past.
