[Hits You Hard] A Special Feature on Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs (91–100)
bottomHiiragi Kirai
This is a uniquely styled Vocaloid track that will leave you stunned by its masterful vocal work.
Created by Vocaloid producer Kira Hiiragi, known for hits like “Autophagy,” it was released in 2021 alongside a version sung by utaite Shima Jii.
With its heavy, weighty rhythm, tonal character, and noisy vocals, it’s Hiiragi’s world in full force.
You’ll find something new every time you listen.
The dark worldview of the lyrics is irresistible, too.
Crank it up loud so the low end resonates deep in your ears and down to the pit of your stomach.
seems like (just) my imaginationChōchō P
Would we be free if we threw everything away? Of course not.
It’s a dark song about not wanting to be hurt any more—singing that if it’s going to hurt this much, then just cut me apart, destroy me.
The piano’s timbre seems to seep into the depths of the heart.
Hide and Seek19’s Sound Factory
Days passed in fear of being disliked, unable to show my true self to others.
But the person who hated me the most was myself.
I’ve been playing so many different characters that I no longer know which one is the real me, the song says.
It ultimately comes to the conclusion that it’s about time I acknowledge myself.
Mosaic RollDECO*27
It’s a song that people who are yandere or who tend to depend on others will surely relate to.
But the way we love… it’s different for everyone, isn’t it? It sticks in your head and you find yourself humming it.
With its cool guitar riff and a four-on-the-floor beat you can’t help but groove to, it’s one of DECO*27’s signature tracks.
Zamzateniwoha
I also recommend “Zamuza,” whose Latin-style melody is addictive.
This track was created by the Vocaloid producer Teniwoha.
Its lyrics portray the heartache of a protagonist rejected by their beloved.
And when you listen to the song, it helps to know about the character named Zamuza in order to fully immerse yourself in its world.
“Zamuza” refers to the protagonist of the novella The Metamorphosis.
She transforms into an insect and has apples thrown at her by her father.
In the novella, there are descriptions of physical pain, but in the song, it can be interpreted as emotional pain.
Tie and Untie, Rakshasa and Skeletonhachi
Even from the title, it feels a bit deranged, doesn’t it? This is a song by Kenshi Yonezu, also known as Hachi, who is active as a singer-songwriter.
It was released on Nico Nico Douga in 2009.
The melody has a Japanese flair, and the sounds of traditional Japanese instruments are used abundantly.
The theme is “innocence,” but as you listen, you can’t help feeling that the word doesn’t only have a bright meaning.
It kind of sends shivers down your spine.
autophagyHiiragi Kirai
This is recommended for those who enjoy dark, moody worlds.
It’s a Vocaloid track by Kirai Hiiragi released in 2019.
The sound is lively yet downbeat, and the melody is distinctive and memorable.
Its mysterious sonic texture has captivated many Vocaloid fans, making it a popular song.
It’ll make you want to clap along and groove.
