A perfect day for ghostsnaraku
Yūrei Biyori, the fifth work by the Vocaloid producer naraku.
It features distinctive koto and flute tones with an enka-style melody line, resulting in a quintessentially naraku, Japanese-inspired sound.
The lyrics, written in archaic phrasing reminiscent of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu, leave a strong impression, and the aimlessly wandering ghost girl who serves as the protagonist feels somehow wistful.
Even with only five works so far, naraku has been drawing attention with outstanding sound—be sure to keep an eye out for what comes next!
