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.

Petals, and the rib-cage shack tied to the sounds surrounding them

A razor-sharp slice of synth-pop infused with a keen perspective on the digital society.

Released by Abaraya in February 2025, it took first place in the VOCACOLLE Winter 2025 TOP 100 ranking.
