[Vocaloid] Easy Band Songs for Beginners [Simple]

There must be many people who want to cover Vocaloid songs with a band.

For example: “We want to play a Vocaloid song at our school festival concert!” This feature article should help you choose songs for times like that.

We’ve picked pieces that are relatively easy to perform, so they’re great for beginner instrumentalists.

There may be some slightly tricky phrases, but in those cases, doing your own arrangement is one option.

Keep in mind, “It’s not about one person’s strength—express the world of the song as a whole band,” and definitely give it a try!

[Vocaloid] Easy Band Songs for Beginners [Simple] (11–20)

SarisinaharaMikito-P

If you’re looking for a band piece that features keyboards, how about this song? It’s by Mikito-P, a popular Vocaloid producer known for hits like “IAR Fan Club” and “Roki,” and it was released in 2012.

It’s about feelings that don’t reach the person you care about—the lyrics distill the bittersweetness of love and really strike a chord.

The tempo is on the relaxed side, so it should be quite approachable.

Plus, it lets you try foundational playing on each instrument, such as guitar arpeggios and an 8-beat pattern on the drums.

When it comes to iconic Vocaloid rock songs, you can’t leave out 164’s “Ama no Jaku.” It’ll look insanely cool if you can cover it as a band.

The key to making this song really hit is the guitar’s main riff that comes in during the intro and elsewhere.

It’s a bit tough for beginners, so if you absolutely can’t play it, it might be fine to switch to a simplified arrangement of your own.

The bass features slapping in the first verse (A-melo); if your note consistency isn’t there, try using a compressor or limiter.

For the A and B sections, aim to play as calmly as possible and bring out an elegant vibe.

Then, if you can really push the sense of speed in the chorus, you’ll create strong contrast and nail that cool, dynamic feel!

This piece, released in 2018 by Yurry Canon—also known for songs like “Suicide Parade”—features philosophical lyrics that, despite despair about life and the world, find a glimmer of hope in the future.

The tempo isn’t very fast, so it should be one of the more approachable tracks among Yurry Canon’s works.

If you’re on guitar, start by practicing so you can play it through using power chords.

If you memorize the chorus’s “ta-tta-ka ta-tta” rhythm pattern, it’ll help when you tackle other songs, too.

It’s also recommended for beginner drummers.
