[Hits Home] A Collection of Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs (81–90)
Hello/How are you?nanou
This is a depressive song that portrays the real loneliness working adults face.
The lyrics are so relatable for anyone in the workforce that they can bring you to tears.
It will likely resonate especially with those who’ve just started working or are struggling because they’re not seeing results.
It may not be a cure, but it’s a song that stays by your side.
Recommended for those looking for a song to relate to or who want to sink into a darker mood.
Estimated Love SongAko
This is a yandere song created by Ako, where a simple interpretation of words can make feelings of love swell.
Released in February 2025, the piece was written to celebrate KAITO’s 19th anniversary.
KAITO’s sweet vocals fit perfectly with the electro-swing sound.
The lyrics portray the protagonist as finding meaning in every move the other person makes and turning even the smallest words and actions into love, conveying their madness in a straightforward way.
It’s a love-sick song that keeps your heart pounding.
I found it.tsumigusa
You’ll be knocked out within the first 10 seconds.
“Mitsuketa” by Vocaloid producer Tsumikusa, released in January 2024, captivates with a spine-chilling worldview.
It shouldn’t be about you… and yet, as you listen, you start to feel like you’ve been “found.” That’s how powerful each and every word feels.
Highly recommended for fans of yandere songs and horror vibes.
The dynamic composition—with its unpredictable twists that keep your heart racing—is top-tier!
Pamelabarūn
If you listen to it when you’re feeling lonely, it might just cut you deep.
This track by Balloon, a Vocaloid producer who also performs as singer-songwriter Keina Suda, was released in 2021.
With its breezy rhythm, stylish chord progressions, and sharp guitar phrases, every slice of it is a treat.
And that opening melody of the chorus—absolutely irresistible! It gives the impression of emotions bursting out all at once.
There’s also a self-cover version available, so be sure to compare it with the Vocaloid version!
A Seabed Tale of Crinoidsn-buna
Although it has a fairly bright tone, it’s actually a “yami” song… I recommend listening to it when you want recognition or when you’re going through something tough.
The catchy melody sticks in your head and you’ll find yourself humming it.
The watercolor-style artwork in the PV matches the song and is really nice.
I’ve been alive for 1,000 years.iyowa
It sounds catchy, and yet… why does it feel so suspicious? This piece, released in 2020 by iyowa, a Vocaloid producer known for a one-of-a-kind, distinctive musicality, has a unique charm.
Its swaying rhythms and noisy timbres offer a flavor distinct from lo-fi music.
The lyrics, written from the perspective of a painting that has been inside a frame for a thousand years, are crafted in a way that makes you think: only iyowa could write this! We humans, who can live at most about a hundred years—so, how shall we go on living from here?
[Hits You Hard] A Special Feature on Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs (91–100)
Bacterial contaminationKanimiso P
This is “Bacterial Contamination” by Kanimiso-P, whose addictive style has a strong following.
Its worldview, centered on bullying, is oppressively heavy, and it hurts to listen.
The pain of being ostracized makes you almost want to pass it on to someone else…
If I were in that position, I might think that way too, I can’t help but imagine…
The dark narrative gains even more depth through its eerie soundscape.
I absolutely recommend this track to anyone who wants to fully immerse themselves in a sick, afflicted mood!
