[Hits Home] A Special Feature on Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs

A huge number of Vocaloid songs are available online.

New tracks are constantly being created around themes like emotions, scenery, seasons, and events.

Among them, there are also many pieces known as “yami songs” (dark or depressive songs).

I bet quite a few people like that kind of music.

You might listen when you want something to empathize with your feelings, or play them when you want to think deeply and intensely.

So in this article, we’ll be introducing plenty of Vocaloid yami songs!

Let’s take a peek into the deep, rich world of the Vocaloid scene!

Songs with a heavy-bass foundation and a dark vibe are great, aren’t they? They can feel cool and stylish, too.

With that in mind, I’d like to introduce “Freyla Villainze.” It’s a track produced by Yugika for the VOCALOID Collection 2023 Summer TOP100.

The song pairs a deep, heavy-bass sound with Nalkana Mikoto’s low vocals.

Also pay attention to the lyrics that depict negative emotions and the music video’s intensely dynamic animation.

Experience a unique world you won’t find anywhere else.

There are probably some of you who’ve been told by your partner that you’re “too much.” For you, I recommend this Vocaloid rock song.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Hifumi, who became well-known with the hit “Moudoku ga Osou.” It was released in 2019.

The song is yandere-themed, sung from the perspective of someone thinking about a lover who’s gradually drifting away.

The Japanese-style melody is lovely, isn’t it?

Sikura Sogo captivates listeners with a unique emotional expression centered on deep melancholy.

“I Want to Be Poisoned by You and Drown” is a Vocaloid track released on January 24, 2024.

Though just over two minutes long, it’s packed with a message that resonates.

This work stands out for its emotionally charged creativity, rendering a soundscape that expresses the complex feelings where love and hate intertwine.

The depiction of a mind tormented and tossed about by romance is striking.

If you want to be drawn into a whirlpool of emotion, this is a must-listen.

EmblemATOLS

ATOLS – Emblem feat. Hatsune Miku

The lo-fi sound gives you chills.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer ATOLS—known not only for musical sensibility but also for a distinctive, off-the-beaten-path approach to music videos—released in 2021.

The song has a calm yet eerie tone, but there’s a strange allure that makes you want to keep listening.

The lyrics’ worldview is addictive, too—something you want to analyze and dissect.

It’s a very unique-feeling Vocaloid track that makes you want to stop thinking and just surrender yourself to the sound, swaying left and right like a candle.

EYEKanaria

The dark, stylish sound is irresistible! This track is by the Vocaloid producer Kanaria, known for hits like “KING” and “Envy Baby,” and it was released in 2021.

While the lyrics are in Japanese, the tuning makes it sound as if it’s being sung in English, which is a distinctive touch.

The word choice in the lyrics is excellent too—it makes you want to sing along as you listen.

Be sure to turn up the volume and enjoy! Kanaria’s songs feel simple yet deep, don’t they?

I breathed with tearssaikawa

Breathed with Tears / saikawa feat. Hatsune Miku

It’s a heartrending Vocaloid ballad that sings, “To feel sadness is what it means to be alive,” and it really stirs the emotions.

The track is by Vocaloid producer saikawa and was released in 2020.

The light, strummed acoustic guitar and the resonant, beautiful piano tones seep into your heart as you listen.

Maybe because of that sound, the lyrical message hits even harder.

Hatsune Miku’s gentle delivery suits it perfectly and… it brings tears to your eyes.

If you ever find yourself thinking that just being alive is painful, please give it a listen.

How about a suspicious-sounding waltz? It’s a track by syudou, a popular Vocaloid producer known for songs like “Bitter Choco Decoration,” released in 2015.

It sings of frustration toward others.

The content is aggressive, but many people can probably relate.

It’s annoying when people nitpick you from the outside, isn’t it?
