Mikito-P “Shoujo Rei” MV

Mikito-P, a Vocaloid producer known for works like “Ii Aru Fan Club” and “Roki,” places emphasis on a classic Vocaloid style, capturing the unique excitement that only Vocaloid can deliver.

While many of his songs are challenging, there are also some that are easy to sing—such as “Shoujo Rei.” Its composition is closer to J-pop, without the typically dense word count found in many Vocaloid tracks.

The vocal range is a moderately high mid2A to hiF, but since the highest note occurs due to a key change, you should be able to sing it comfortably by adjusting the key appropriately.

Crimson Bow and ArrowLinked Horizon89rank/position

Attack on Titan - Guren no Yumiya (Full)

This is a song by the music unit Linked Horizon, led by sound creator Revo.

Linked Horizon is an alternate name used by Sound Horizon for tie-in songs, and they were selected to perform the opening theme for the anime Attack on Titan.

The piece features various developments that feel like it’s expressing a story through music, and it also incorporates the tense worldview of Attack on Titan, which is a key point.

In singing, conveying the worldview is essential—it’s important to infuse the performance with the strength to face adversity and a sense of determination.

Since the song unfolds almost like multiple pieces in one, it may be best to listen closely and get thoroughly familiar with it.

There are also parts where you rally those around you to shout powerfully together, so keep that in mind and really build up the energy there.

A slightly dark, high-energy EDM tune that’s perfect for hyping up the venue! It’s a track by the popular Vocaloid producer Kanaria, who drew attention with their debut song “Hyakki Matsuri,” released in 2020.

It’s also the title track of the album released the same year.
