Bradbury / flower・particles (Bradbury / teniwoha)

This is Teniwoha’s “Bradbury,” a song you can’t help but listen to from beginning to end without missing a beat.

It features flower’s punchy high-tone vocals, and the way the layers build up at a brisk tempo feels incredibly satisfying.

The cleverly calculated, rhymed lyrics that repeat the same sounds—one of Teniwoha’s specialties—are impressive as always.

The lyrics and mood are dark, yet somehow you can’t help but groove to it—truly a god-tier track! Teniwoha also sings this song himself, and that version is cool and highly recommended too.

Onomatopoeia Con Artist / Hatsune Miku

A song with distinctly characteristic lyrics.

The word choice is amusing, almost like rakugo, and it never gets boring.

The melody and rhythm modulate so frequently that it would be difficult to sing without practice.

Conversely, if you can sing it firmly, the song’s inherent power will captivate listeners.

It was released in 2018.

Tokoyotokiyo / flower

I’m deeply moved by the high-energy sound.

Created by Teniwoha—also known as the author of the Schoolgirl Detective series—and released in 2018, this is a richly packed Vocaloid track that blends rock and EDM elements, beautiful piano tones, and a distinctly Japanese atmosphere all into one ambitious song.

[Hatsune Miku] The Old Book Mansion Murder Case [Schoolgirl Detective Series]

This is a work that weaves elements of mystery into a Japanese-style rock piece.

The song, composed by Teniwoha, was released in July 2012.

As the first installment of the “Schoolgirl Detective Series,” it unfolds a story that follows a case’s mysteries set in an antiquarian bookstore.

The lyrics, rich with wordplay, and the brisk melody are particularly appealing.

In March 2018, it surpassed one million views on Niconico, and it continues to be beloved by many.

Why not take this opportunity to explore the rest of the series?

[Hatsune Miku] Kaibutsu-mono no Kai Ongakubako [Original PV]

It’s a cool Japanese-style rock song packed to the brim with names of traditional Japanese yokai.

It’s fun because it features everything from yokai that every Japanese person has probably heard of at least once to rare ones you’ll think, “This is the first time I’ve heard of that!” You’ll feel a real sense of accomplishment if you can get through the fast-paced part without stumbling.

Ignition / flower

A striking example of how key changes can transform a song’s atmosphere is Teniwoha’s “Hakka.” It was included on their fourth album, “NO BOY,” released in 2021 after a five-year hiatus.

The music video for “Hakka” was uploaded to YouTube ahead of the album.

When the chorus hits, the song modulates to a different key than before, and the latter half of the chorus features a higher melodic line.

After the instrumental break, the final, climactic chorus shifts to an even higher melodic line, ramping up the excitement.

Rainbow Halo / Kagamine Len · Teniwoha (KAGAMINE LEN · teniwoha)

A dazzling, cool, and stylish electronic tune.

It’s a work by the Vocaloid producer Teniwoha, known for hits like “Koshoyashiki Murder Case” and “Villain,” released in 2020.

The track was provided for the cross-media project “KAMIGAMI KESHI—Dance and Music for KAMI.” The refined sound with a Japanese flair pairs perfectly with Kagamine Len’s powerful vocals.

The lyrics, which express lingering attachment to someone precious who is gone, are heart-wrenching.
