[Seikuu Kazune] “Snowfall Promenade” / Kagamine Rin [Music Video – Original Song]

The winter-evoking melody and easy-to-listen-to vocals are striking.

The word “promenade” in the title means a stroll.

You can picture someone walking through the snow.

It’s a picture book–like work that depicts the mysterious scenery of winter and a touch of bittersweetness.

The cuteness of the Vocaloid voice further enhances the song’s world.

Diamond Dust Hokkaido [MV] - Living in a Heartbreaking World Again

This is a heartrending winter tale by Vocaloid producer Mata Setsunai Sekai wo Ikiru.

It’s included in the compilation album “Doubt Me!?” released in November 2023.

Set in a worldline where it no longer snows, it portrays the story of two people separated from each other.

Blending sci-fi elements like radio towers and communication through screens, the lyrics beautifully weave together the blank years and fragments of memory, perfectly matched by Hatsune Miku’s whispery vocals.

Recommended for when you want to look back on memories with someone important to you.

"Snowy Dancehall" / Hatsune Miku – Perpetual Night

This work brilliantly fuses a dynamic, lively melody with the crystalline clarity of winter.

Released by Tokoyo in December 2024, the track layers Hatsune Miku’s vocals over a light, buoyant beat to create an exhilarating sense of speed that lifts the heart.

Another hallmark is its ebb and flow: it shifts from a rock-inflected sound to a Christmas-style arrangement incorporating bell tones.

If you’re getting together with friends to enjoy a party on Christmas night, why not put this song on?

fhána – On a Winter Day Where Light Dances feat. IA [Music Video]

It’s a long track of over seven minutes, but perhaps because the sound choices are so good, it was pleasant to listen to and felt short.

The arrangement has a sense of exhilaration that makes you feel active when you listen.

Of course, it’s also a great song to listen to while watching the music video.
