[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!

[Hits Home] A Special Feature on Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs (171–180)

Marionette Ariashirubāna

It’s a vibey yet deeply troubled Vocaloid track you’ll want to put on repeat.

Created by Vocaloid producer Shirubāna and released in 2021, one of its charms is the lush, sensual sound.

v flower’s cool, matter-of-fact vocals really shine here.

The lyrics, which portray a heart gradually being worn down and falling apart, hit hard.

It’s the kind of deeply layered piece that makes you wonder if, without realizing it, you might be the same.

Highly recommended if you like songs with a gothic atmosphere.

If you like Kagamine Len, you’ve probably heard songs by Rerere-P.

Hearing that this is one of their yandere songs should raise your expectations.

You can enjoy Len’s cool vocals, as if holding back intense emotion.

The highlight is the unsettling, deeply sick lyrics that contrast with his vocal tone.

Sequelae, memo, time bomb.Satsuki

Sequelae, a memorandum, a time bomb. / Hatsune Miku · Kaai Yuki
Sequelae, memo, time bomb.Satsuki

It’s a piece by Satsuki featuring Hatsune Miku and Kaai Yuki, included on the album “Zanpai” released in November 2022.

The lyrics delve into past pain and regret, and emotions lurking deep within the heart, giving it real depth.

Its multilayered sound—blending elements of electronica and alternative—is captivating.

The striking contrast between stillness and intensity shakes the listener to the core.

It can hit especially hard when you’re trying to sort out your inner feelings.

Children’s ParadiseSadoya

Children's Paradise / Sadoya feat. KAFU

The gap between the title and the song just gets me.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Sadoya, released in October 2022.

Every timbre feels ominous, perfectly matched with KAFU’s noise-tinged vocals.

I imagine many people love this dark, heavy, frightening mood.

The eerie MV, which blends illustration and live-action footage, adds even more depth to the worldbuilding.

(What kind of story is about to begin from here…?) It’s one of those Vocaloid songs that makes you want to see what happens next.

These are lyrics that make you want to read deeply into them.

Created by Tsumiki, the author behind songs like “Recollection Endroll” and “Ground Zero,” it was released in 2018.

I’m introducing it as a dark-themed song, but its stylish sound is highly addictive and actually gets you hyped as you listen.

Hatsune Miku Original Song 'Strangers'
StrangersHebunzu P

This is a famous Hatsune Miku song that rides a catchy melody to express a heart swaying between freedom and restraint.

Even if you break out of confinement, what spreads before you is still a world of constraint.

It sings of how restrictive life can be.

And yet, it also conveys a hopeful message: unless you keep moving forward, your feelings will never reach anyone.

Caprice CastYugika

This is a dark Vocaloid track infused with hip-hop and EDM elements.

Created by Vocaloid producer Yugika, it was released in 2021.

With its hardcore-tinged sound, unpredictable development, and razor-sharp vocal work enhanced by high-pitched noise, it’s packed with appeal.

You can’t help but listen again and again.

The lyrics evoke troubled romance and barren human relationships, which may resonate especially with younger listeners.

It’s a highly sophisticated work whose unique worldview and soundscape are hard to escape from.
