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

Heine and KleineBoiled Fruits

∴Niru Kajitsu “Haine and Kleine” with Flower [Official] - Haine & Kleine

I’m captivated by the gap between the stylish sound and the lyrics that convey a feeling bordering on resignation.

It’s a track by Nirukajitsu, the fruit-themed Vocaloid producer (perhaps the first in the Vocaloid scene?), released in 2020.

The content, which reads like an unfiltered outpouring of feelings everyone harbors, makes you wince with recognition, yet the uniquely swaying beat—where the pulses of the sound wobble—oddly soothes you.

It makes you want to overthink, and also just surrender your body to the groove… a city-styled Vocaloid song where wistfulness and weightless drift intermingle.

Cinema / Hatsune Miku

This song by Vocaloid producer Ayase, who is also active as the composer for the music duo YOASOBI, was released in 2021.

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

Hatsune Miku.

It’s a stylish four-on-the-floor number distinguished by a light, chiptune-like piano timbre.

Perhaps it’s the harmonic progression that gives it a bittersweet atmosphere, which pairs well with the matter-of-fact melodic line.

Wabi-sabiSui Hoshimiya

Sora no Miya Sui – “Wabi-Sabi” feat. Hatsune Miku [Music Video]

If you want to listen to a chill-out Vocaloid track, try this one.

It’s a song by Vocaloid producer Sui Hoshimiya, released in 2021.

Even when you turn the volume all the way up, what comes through is a mysterious calm.

The auto-tuned vocals and the deep-reverb-soaked sound really sink in.

It’s the kind of track you want to close your eyes and truly immerse yourself in.

Based on a dream the artist had, the song’s content seems to capture that hazy feeling you have when you first wake up in the morning.

Why not spend some relaxed time with this track?

GalleriaHiiragi Kirai

Galleria / Hiiragi Kirai feat. flower

This is an artistic Vocaloid track where the contrast between heavy bass and a horn section is highlighted by uniquely rolled, trilled-style vocal tuning.

It’s a song by Kirai Hiiragi, the creator of hits like “Autophagy” and “Bocca della Verità,” released in 2021.

Whether it’s the sound arrangement or the lyrics, even though you’re listening to a song, you get the sensation of witnessing a myth.

That depth—this is precisely Kirai Hiiragi’s signature strength.

It’s powerful music you can enjoy by diving into analysis or simply surrendering yourself to the sound.

colorless and transparent

It’s an insanely addictive EDM tune where the visuals and music fuse into one and rattle your brain.

Created by Vocaloid producer Barbapapa, it was released in December 2025.

Despite the surreal, vaguely unsettling atmosphere, before you know it you’ve surrendered your body to its distinctive beat.

It blends the hedonistic appeal of dance music with a playful sense of “dislocation,” creating a truly one-of-a-kind groove.

If you’re craving something a little offbeat and stimulating, definitely give it a listen.

Hyakki FestivalKanaria

[Hatsune Miku] Hyakki-sai [Kanaria]

How about a stylish Vocaloid track with a dark, traditional Japanese flair? It was the debut work of Vocaloid producer Kanaria, released in 2020.

Achieving this level of quality on a debut… what astounding talent.

That’s probably what resonated with Vocaloid fans.

The relaxed rhythm, the interplay of sounds that incorporate traditional Japanese instruments, and the chorus phrase repeated over and over—before you know it, you’re drawn into Kanaria’s world.

It’s a piece you’ll want to keep listening to forever.

Da Vinci's Confession666

GUMI – Da Vinci’s Confession (ダヴィンチの告白)

An emotional Vocalo-rock track that blends a lively rhythm section with noisy guitar phrases.

It’s the debut work of Vocaloid producer 666, released in 2013.

With developments that change expression from scene to scene, it’s not a simple guitar rock song.
