"MV" First Quarter Moon — WhiteFlame feat. KAITO

It’s a song from the musical play “Senbonzakura.” You might imagine a cool, traditional Japanese-style piece, but this “Jōgen no Tsuki” doesn’t really have a Japanese-style sound.

Rather, it makes lavish use of guitars and strings to create a grand impression.

Enjoy this story together with the powerful vocals carried by the rich music and the PV that evokes the Taishō Romantic era.

Showers and the Little Cuckoomtrika

[Original] Clustered Rain and Cuckoo / Hatsune Miku mtrika

A very beautiful piece built around a piano sound.

“Guu-u to Hototogisu” by mtrika, released in April 2024.

The transparent tone and Hatsune Miku’s calm vocals are exquisitely balanced, conjuring up a fantastical early-summer nightscape.

From both the timbre and the lyrics, you can feel a slightly cool atmosphere.

Why not listen to it as a companion to your moments of contemplation?

Confession/Hatsune Miku

Set to a heartrending melody, feelings of farewell are sung.

Released in 2018 as a song by Kanzaki Iori and later included on the album “Hakushi,” it poignantly voices regret over a past romance and emotions for days that can never return.

The piano-centered arrangement unfolds dramatically toward the latter half, making it feel as though every note carries emotion.

It’s a work that blends gentleness with sorrow—one I’d like those suffering from the pain of parting to hear.

“Butterfly’s Dream,” imbued with a sincere longing to keep a loved one by your side, is a song produced in 2023 by the Vocaloid producer Veill.

Hatsune Miku’s clear, luminous vocals shine over a melody where ethereal synths intertwine with strings.

It is a ballad that paints a fragile yet beautiful love story unfolding like a tale.

Please give it a listen and let its gentle, soothing sound heal your heart.

Soranohoto / Narukaka Hime

“Saragoto” depicts a scene overflowing with love for someone precious who is no longer by your side.

Created by rinri, who made their Vocaloid debut in 2022, it’s a track where a fantastical soundscape gently resonates.

Lyrics about two people who drift apart even while looking at the same scenery stir up deep emotions.

With Nanakaha Hime’s emotive, conversational singing, the song conveys a striking human warmth.

Please lend an ear to this ballad where a crystalline melody intertwines with honest, unguarded feelings.
