[Original] Odoryanse – Odoryanse / YurryCanon feat. MIKU & GUMI

A signature song by Yuri Cannon, a renowned Vocaloid producer who embodies a fusion of traditional Japanese style and Vocaloid.

It’s high-tempo and high-pitched, making it a challenging choice for first-time singers, but it looks incredibly cool when mastered.

If you imagine the iconic Vocaloid track Senbonzakura, you’ll get a similar vibe.

Highly recommended for those who are good at fast-paced lyrics.

By the way, Yuri Cannon also expresses pure Japanese-style rock in songs like “Suicide Parade” and “If I Could Become Someone’s Heart.”

If I Could Become Someone’s Heart / YurryCanon feat. GUMI

This song captivates with philosophical lyrics that delve into the meaning of existence and the reasons for living.

Since its release in February 2018, “If I Could Become Someone’s Heart” has continued to be loved by many.

It’s a rock-style piece characterized by a fast tempo and a high key.

The melody line is simple, with many repeated phrases, making it easy to play on the piano.

Practice the right-hand melody and left-hand accompaniment separately, and finish it carefully at a slow pace!

A thick, layered sound, a fast-paced melody and rhythm, and a dark worldview.

This is one of Vocaloid producer Yuri-Kanon’s signature songs, “Suicide Parade,” released in 2018.

Its deep, story-driven lyrics became a hot topic, and fans enjoyed analyzing their meaning.

Being able to appreciate music in that way is part of what makes it so fascinating.

Shite / Yurii Canon feat. Narukami Mikoto

A song I want people who feel “I’m not getting enough love from my partner…” to hear is Shite.

It was produced in 2022 by Yuri Cannon, a Vocaloid producer who writes for many singers.

Its passionate rock sound paired with a classically inspired melody leaves a strong impression.

Naru Hana Mikoto’s powerful vocals, brimming with the allure of a mature woman, are moving as well.

Even newcomers to Vocaloid can enjoy its straightforward band sound.

If your single-minded love overflows to the point of yandere-like feelings, definitely give it a listen.

Cardia / GUMI

Yurii Canon, a Vocaloid producer who also runs the music project Tsukuyomi, created “Kardia,” a captivating piece with a gothic mood and palpable tension.

The title “Kardia” comes from Greek, meaning “heart” or “cardia.” Reading the lyrics—which carry the message, “Don’t let it end in your head; make sure to convey those feelings to the other person”—it also seems to take on an emotional nuance of “soul.” Be sure to check out the version sung by nui as well!

Object X / Yurry Canon feat. GUMI

Adorned with piano, the piece is beautiful and carries a hint of folk-song sensibility.

Supported by that soundscape, what’s sung is a powerful cry, as if spilling out one’s inner heart.

It’s a very cool track that evokes a dark world, and I hope you won’t just listen to it—sing it out yourself with all your might.

I also recommend checking out YurryCanon’s other songs.

Mede / Yurii Canon feat. GUMI

It’s a fiery Vocaloid track that conveys a fierce determination to “survive no matter what.” The song, released in May 2023, is by Vocaloid producer Yuri Cannon, who also runs the music project Tsukuyomi.

Built around a four-on-the-floor rhythm, its dramatic, fast-paced sound is undeniably cool.

That rock vibe pairs perfectly with GUMI’s steady, resolute vocals.

And above all, the standout feature is the lyrics, which unfold while skillfully rhyming.

Just reading them stirs emotions from deep within.
