Transparent SummerMIMI
This piece captures the transparency of summer.
Summer isn’t just about heat.
The lyrics that make you look forward to summer are, I think, the song’s greatest charm.
The recorder’s tone fits well, too.
The simple, light rhythm is also pleasant to listen to.
I Can’t Stop Fall in LoveIto Kashitaro
This song is intriguing for the contrast between its quiet beginning, the emotional build-up in the intro, and the catchy chorus.
It’s a track by Kashitaro Ito, who is also active as a member of the idol unit Shime5.
Released in 2015, it’s a love song that sings honestly about feelings toward love.
Rainy in Augustharumakigohan
A track whose melody makes a lasting impression by bringing out Hatsune Miku’s clear, translucent voice.
Harumaki Gohan, the Vocaloid producer behind the song, is a multitalented creator who also makes the PV’s illustrations and video himself.
While the arrangement follows a classic rock style, it possesses a strangely unique beauty, resulting in a song you’ll find yourself wanting to listen to at the end of summer.
PostscriptOrangestar
From its refreshing sound, you can almost see the summer blue sky spreading out.
It’s a song by Orangestar, released in 2024.
The lyrics capture a sense of nostalgia for days gone by and a longing for a future just out of reach.
Paired with its driving energy, it delivers a squeeze-your-heart kind of feeling.
Be sure to give it a listen at the end of summer!
The caprice of the Everworldkoyori
For many people, summer means horror.
A perfect song for them is “Tokoyo no Kimagure” (“Whim of the Everworld”).
With a horror-like melody, it lets you savor an eerie atmosphere.
The protagonist is a ghost.
Because the person they love doesn’t notice them, they play all sorts of tricks—so the story goes.
In the end, a heartrending conclusion awaits.
August, you are.Epoch
A song that paints bittersweet memories, with the delicate tones of the guitar seeping into the heart.
Created by the Vocaloid producer Epoch, also known for works like “Somnium,” and released in August 2021.
It’s a rock number packed with overflowing emotions for cherished people we can no longer meet, and for the summer days that have passed.
The resonant, emotional sound captivates both ears and heart.
Before you know it, you find yourself listening as if it were your own story.
