[Hits Hard] A Special Feature on Dark/Vent Vocaloid Songs (211–220)
Mother DaysChinozo
It’s a downtempo four-on-the-floor tune that draws polar-opposite reactions—“so cute yet scary.” Produced by the Vocaloid creator Chinozo, known for the smash hit “Goodbye Declaration,” it was released in January 2023.
The song was written as the theme for Maria, a character from Sanrio’s mixed-media series “Mai Mai Maigoen.” It sounds poppy, yet there’s an uncanny sense of darkness lurking underneath.
Even if you don’t know the story of “Mai Mai Maigoen,” you’ll still get hooked!
Heavenly YouLonePi
It’s a piece with a curious sense of floating, its snappy tones and whispers lingering in your ears.
The track is by Vocaloid producer LonePi, known for works like “Hydrangea” and “The Drowned Corpse Wants to Fall in Love,” and it was released in August 2023.
With intricate rhythmic work and an electric piano sound that darts left and right, the more you listen, the more you discover.
Rimuru’s innocent singing voice matches the mood perfectly.
Be sure to add this downer yet highly addictive song to your playlist.
survivorshipRaity
This song expresses the anxiety and despair of wondering whether anyone would extend a helping hand to someone like me.
It was selected as the theme song for the free game “Bloodstained Flower.” As you play the game, the meaning of the lyrics gradually becomes clear.
Sweet-tooth GluttonyRokuba
The creator, Rokuba, says this song is themed around one of the Seven Deadly Sins: Gluttony.
I’m captivated by the pure tone of the piano and IA’s clear vocals.
The English pronunciation is very authentic.
It feels as thrilling as watching a story unfold in a theater.
mimic×holicVell
If you like “yami songs” (dark, depressive tracks), “mimic×holic” is a must-listen.
This piece is a song produced by Vell, and its lyrics depict a woman who changes parts of her face in pursuit of beauty.
In the title, “mimic” means to imitate, and “holic” indicates being addicted or obsessed.
From this, it can be inferred that the woman in the song wishes to become someone else.
The dark production elements—such as the sampled electrocardiogram sound in the interlude—are also highlights.
