[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!

By all means, check out this aggressive, hard‑charging electronic music! It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Sumia—also known for “Cradle” and “RACHE”—released in October 2022.

The way the sound flows and unfolds is insanely cool; you won’t be able to stop turning up the volume.

The pairing of the hardcore soundscape with flower’s understated vocals is a perfect match.

While I’m introducing it as a “yami” (dark) song because of its moody atmosphere, I actually think it’s perfect for cranking up your energy!

It’s a high-speed Vocaloid track that makes you want to say, “Now this is a dark worldview.” It’s a work by the famous producer cosMo@Bousou-P, who has been active since the earliest days of the Vocaloid scene, released in 2020.

As the title suggests, the protagonist is a raid boss with immense power.

Love and everything else bend to her will… it’s that kind of yami song.

The wall-of-sound arrangement presses in on you, amplifying the message even further.

It’s one entry in a series of songs known as “The Abode of Monsters,” so be sure to check out the other tracks as well.

It’s stylish and upbeat, yet the contrasting message in the lyrics really hits home.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer daraku, released in 2022.

Throughout, it delivers a thick, heavy sound reminiscent of dubstep, but there’s also a section with an EDM-like sense of openness.

It seems like the kind of song that would send your energy through the roof at a club or festival! Rather than digging deeply into the lyrics or analyzing every timbre, I’d say crank up the volume and enjoy it first—it’s a dynamic Vocaloid track.

The repeating piano phrase, symphonic strings, and Hatsune Miku’s fragile vocals leave a strong impression.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer ive, released in 2019.

The lyrics, with their dark word choices—enough to make you think of a “night without a single light”—really pierce the heart.

Yet what comes through is a single-minded devotion to someone precious.

Fear and wistfulness intermingle, creating a unique atmosphere.

It’s a gloomy song that might make you cry before you even realize it.

A song I want those who tend to feel weighed down precisely because they care deeply about someone to hear is “Shiawase.” It was produced in 2022 by john, an artist engaged in a wide range of musical activities, including organizing DJ events.

The heavy, resonant electronica pairs perfectly with Hoshikai’s mechanical vocals.

It delivers a tender yet bittersweet message that stays close to a partner who has overcome many hardships.

With its passionate musical development, it’s a track overflowing with love for someone dear.

As you listen, picture two people desperately surviving together in a dark world.
