Lovely Vocaloid

A collection of stylish Vocaloid songs: The moving world of VOCALOID

A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerWakachan Araki
I started playing guitar in middle school and focused on band activities during my student years. I’ve been a hobbyist Vocaloid producer for over 15 years. After entering the workforce, I gained experience in various roles, including event sound engineering and videography/photography. As a writer, I’ve contributed introduction articles for music and manga websites, and in 2022 I had the opportunity to write the bonus liner notes for IA SUPER BEST. My specialties are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

There are truly countless songs in the VOCALOID scene, but in this article, I’ve put together a selection of especially stylish tracks.

Of course, “stylish” means different things to different people, so I’ve tried to choose from a wide range of genres without drawing sharp boundaries.

So there should definitely be something in the style you like.

Check them all out to the end and find the number that moves your heart.

Beat Eater Police Piccadilly

It’s an electric tune with a somewhat retro vibe.

The track is by Police Piccadilly, a Vocaloid producer also known for “Kire Carry On,” and it was released in 2021.

It was written specifically for the mobile game “Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat.

Hatsune Miku.” Its cool, rhythmic style—especially the handclap sounds that stick in your ears—is a big part of the appeal.

It’s catchy and easy to listen to on repeat.

It might be a great fit as background music for a drive.

In a word, it’s a futuristic and cute song.

Yet it also carries a hint of shadow, evoking a touch of sadness.

It’s the kind of Vocaloid track that gently keeps you company on nights when you’re afraid you might be all alone, offering comfort to the heart.

People Maniac – Kasane Teto

People Enthusiast NEW! Sasuke Haraguchi

This piece fuses an electronic texture with dance music, highlighted by Kasane Teto’s mechanical singing voice.

It’s the Vocaloid debut track by Sasuke Haraguchi, released in August 2023, which ranked 11th in the Bococore 2023 Summer TOP100 category.

The lyrics, themed around social media and people-watching, depict contemporary emotions such as distortion, fabrication, and guilt sensed from others’ words and actions.

Its distinctive arrangement—where addictive, repetitive phrases intertwine with wavering synths—sticks in your head after just one listen.

While experimental with dubstep elements, it remains catchy; a Vocaloid number that will especially resonate with those who feel the hardships of modern society.

Landmark – Flower

Landmark NEW! naso ni

A cycle of repeated self-denial and nihilism unfolds, along with the heart’s cry as it struggles to break free.

Released by Nasoni in October 2025, this track is a dance tune marked by a jazzy piano that leaves a strong impression.

The stylish sound pairs beautifully with Flower’s buoyant, springy vocals.

Many listeners will likely resonate with the lyrics’ portrayal of a protagonist leading a world-weary life yet continuing to seek salvation somewhere.

It especially hits home when you’re in an introspective mood.

kinda godlikeNEW!PinocchioP

PinocchioP – God-ish feat. Hatsune Miku / God-ish

Godlike NEW! PinocchioP

The lyrics, which challenge the values of modern society, are startling in the best way.

This track by multi-creator PinocchioP was released in September 2021.

Its fast-paced, electropop sound is striking, interwoven with the philosophical phrase “Gott ist tot (God is dead).” Set to a catchy melody, it portrays contemporary people swayed by fads and trends.

Through contrasts like appearance versus essence and authority versus doubt, the song questions the things we unconsciously take on faith.

It’s a recommended number for those who feel a sense of unease about everyday life or want to immerse themselves in PinocchioP’s distinctive worldview.

Jude, my boyfriendsyudou

[Hatsune Miku] Jude of a Boyfriend [syudou]

Her boyfriend Jude syudou

You’ll find yourself captivated by its world, steeped in a suspicious, almost eerie atmosphere.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer syudou—also known for working on Ado’s “Usseewa”—released in 2021.

The sound arrangement, which blends liveliness with fear, is a major draw.

The more you listen, the more you discover.

The lyrics, projecting a somewhat precarious emotional state, can make you feel a bit flustered.

It’s like an answer song to “Cute na Kanojo,” so be sure to listen to that one as well.
