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.

Genius Rock Karasuya Sabou

Here’s an upbeat Vocaloid song you’ll want to listen to on repeat.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Karasuyasabou, also known for “Dance Dance Decadence,” released in 2017.

Cleverly weaving together terms from chemistry, it forms an addictive love song.

The protagonist says, “Since I’m a genius, I know you’re going to fall for me.” With such a confidence-filled personality, you can’t help but imagine what kind of love story will unfold.

If possible, I’d like to become your vassal/servant – Kagamine Rin

If possible, I'd like to become your follower, Peg.

A stylish Vocaloid track with an impressively light, breezy rhythm.

It’s one of producer Peg’s signature songs, released in 2019.

There’s so much to enjoy: the bouncy piano timbre, crisp guitar chopping, and catchy synth lines that stick in your head.

Kagamine Rin’s solid, resonant vocals also shine.

While the lyrics’ worldview is fairly dark, the overall mood doesn’t feel very downbeat—perhaps thanks to the song’s tone—making it an easy, pleasant listen.

It naturally makes you ponder the relationship and true identities of the protagonist and “you.”

Adult Children Kanzaki Iori

It’s a rock tune whose heartrending lyrics pierce the heart.

The song, released in 2016, is by the Vocaloid producer Kanzaki Iori, known for hits like “Hated by Life Itself.” It conveys the protagonist’s longing to have been loved by their parents, and just reading the lyrics is painful.

The intense sound arrangement may be expressing those raw, frayed emotions.
